We have been on all of NCL's big ships plus 3 of their smaller ships and ❤❤❤ NCL! There are many reasons why we are doing our 7th cruise on the EPIC in January 2018... it all started during the Christening in NYC followed by the Inauragal cruise that year, the staff is amazing throughout the ship, awesome balcony staterooms, so many food choices, ports, cruising with new friends, love the Freestyle atmosphere and not having to get dressed up unless we want to and of course celebrating my 60th in January just to mention a few...we have no complaints except would love to see the Blue Man Group back in board.... when there are issues (which do sometimes happen) people have to realize that things happen and stop looking for the negative! I'm sure the positive does outweigh the negative in the end...ENJOY!! Or countdown has begun... can't wait!!!
