We selected this cruise out of convenience. We're limited in the New Orleans area, therefore if we tested positive we could simply drive home. During the pandemic, all passengers need to test negative for Covid 19 before boarding the ship. This was handled by Norwegian and fortunately we were negative. After boarding we learned that the ship was at 50% capacity due to Covid 19 restrictions.

We purchased the additional access to the "Vibe club". When the ship is full, I'm told that this is the only place you can get decent bar service. We found it very enjoyable.

I spend as much time as possible on my balcony. The balconies on the ship are disappointing as they are shorter and can barely accommodate one-person sitting in a chair (unless you turn sideways). Outside of that the cabin was nice and the bathroom area in the suite was updated and very usable. We had one episode where the toilet wouldn't flush, this was handled very quickly by Guest services.
