Changes need made, NCL is lacking their charm on this cruise.

Wanted to visit Hawaii with my husband and mom and her husband. We arrived in Oahu a couple days early to do Pearl Harbor and to explore. We used Hawaii discount tour and they were great to deal with. https://www.hawaiidiscount.com/tours/oahu/deluxe-tours/beyond-the-call-to-duty-tour.htm

Meanwhile we got on the POA without a problem, found the ship to be pleasant looking and the dinning rooms to be very nice. We are Platinum Latitude members and did not get our "coupons" for dinning until we went to Cagney's. We shouldn't need coupons, they should be able to add this to your account so you don't have to carry these around with you. After all it says our status on our room keys. Meanwhile, we were never invited to the Latitudes party and found the discounts to be lacking, since they do not work on sales!

Excursions were all booked on our own, since NCL did away with their Dive in program on this trip at least. I'm a scuba diver so I booked my dives on my own. Best thing about this is most ports we were there for 2 days so no worries about making it back to the ship and the cost were probably cheaper.

nice, except one of drawers was broke and would not stay on the tracks. Plumbing was down for a little while too!

Dive was canceled due to bad weather, I can appreciate this. We used our rental car to drive to Waimea Canyon and Kona Coffee factor. Great time and much cheaper by car rental than with cruise ship tour!
