Was originally booked on royal and then found this cruise and saved $2000.00plus all the perks. We have been on many ncl cruises and lots of there ship. This was the 2nd time on the dawn next year will be the jewel. We started on ncl many years ago and then went on Princess royal calebry carnival and now back to ncl. They all have their good and bad. The only complaint this time was the food was really salty. Was told they had many complaints about that but nothing happened. Are waiter was really good knew what we wanted and gave great service. Went to two specialty restaurants and the food was great but I would never pay money to go their. Ours were free so I went. The food in the free resturents were just as good and In some cases the food was the same just little differences.
