We've been on Royal Caribbean and Carnival and our trip on the Norwegian Sky was by far a better experience. This is the second time we've taken this exact cruise. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. The entertainment was great - especially Tyler. He was a riot and made everything even more fun! My wife and I were chosen as contestants for "The Newlywed and Not-So-Newlywed Game" and enjoyed every minute of it. It seemed that everyone on board knew who we were for the rest of the trip! Although the ship "IS" starting to show its age, I thought it was clean and orderly. The service onboard was very good.
I have only one complaint - our stateroom was on the 10th floor just below all the activity one deck above. Most evenings the noise from above kept waking us up until at least 1:00 or 1:30 A.M. I think it was the cleaning crew clearing things up after the on-deck entertainment/crowds. All in all, we enjoyed ourselves immensely and will be cruising with Norwegian again probably within a year's time! Thanks for a great cruise!
