I love Norwegian! I traveled with my aunt who is disabled and I was also on crutches. I love the ship, the people, the ports, the length of cruise! We were given a free upgrade to balcony, but this moved us from mid-ship to all the way forward. It was sometimes extremely difficult to go anywhere on the ship - especially meals, as all the dining options are mid-ship or aft! Perhaps I should have declined the upgrade??...However the balcony was such a treat! Food in the specialty restaurants was outstanding, main dining room was good (but this could be from not ordering the right thins or asking enough questions). One day it was a bit difficult to get bar service by the pool, seems the wait-staff wanted to stand in the shade & chat with the people there. However All-In-All a great cruise!!!! While in Panama I would recommend the excursion "Panama Canal by ferry" we went from he Atlantic to Pacific in the canal on a ferry! Also saw the new canal that is being built! Great experience!

Cabin in all the way forward....while it is a quieter location from people noise...it is louder with ship noise as in rough seas!!!!
