1. Before we booked the cruise I specifically asked the NCL sales person what would happen if the price decreased after we booked. I was advised we would be offered a portion of the difference as onboard credit. A couple of months after we paid, the booking price decreased by $400.00 for a two week period beginning a month before the sail date. When we inquired about the decrease, we were instead ...
We chose the November 8, 2019 9 day cruise just my wife and I. We have cruised many times before (many different cruise lines) and understand things don't always go as you expect or would like, but Norwegian should be rethinking where they are going and review how their management team performed. From ridiculously long lines on day one to a tender process that could have been better managed by a ...
EMBARKATION
This took about 40 minutes end-to-end, which was much faster than other cruises I have been on.
Disembarkation at ports was well managed and fast, aside from one occasion when it was complete chaos after a docking delay, as passengers were not provided with revised timings. Timely information was provided on the procedure at ports, plus advice on local customs, tourist ...
What Princess Cruise Lines won’t tell US citizens embarking from Australia. They will try to cheat you!
1. Although you purchase everything in US dollars, your onboard credit you were promised is not in US Dollars anymore, but in AUD. We were jipped!
2. TIP: Usually the tip is mandatory/included in most cruises for US citizens, but you do NOT have to pay the fixed tip for Embarking from ...
Never been on a cruise to the Caribean before and wanted something more than a 7-day vacation.
Embarking from New Orleans was a nightmare. It took over 3 hours to board and it was a complete mob scene. I had the full drink package but the bars were woefully understaffed, and the bartenders on duty only knew one speed...slow. So I really could not take advantage of this feature.

We chose MSC cruises based on their "family friendly" policies and although the reviews weren't great we were willing to give it a go.
I have previously cruised with many other lines, however these were all pre-children and so i was interested to see if this was going to be a good way to travel with a small child.
I will state that not all my findings were within MSC's control and some ...
There were several reasons I chose chose NCL, from reviews they were a great cruise line, for the ADA available for a family member, us both females traveling Solo with separate Studio rooms, the advertisements of discounts for Solo travelers, Studio rooms with private entry & exclusive use of the Studio Lounge within this area, the destinations etc..We went, 1 from Oklahoma, me from Texas to New ...
I hate writers negative reviews especially when people are waiting to cruise and are probably very excited. Firstly its a nice ship, we had a spa room, which although a little small served a purpose and the bathroom was really nice. The shows were excelent, first class. We had a drinks package included so I've no complaints, the service was hit and miss due to the crowds converging on every bar. ...
WE booked this cruise based on ports and the ship for 9 family members (parents, grandparents, 2 kids and Auntie & Uncle). We had a really great time together and the ports were fun and as expected - Grand Cayman with Stingray city was awesome. The ship was lovely and the cabins well thought out so initial impression was positive. The customer service was just plain bad or non existent (with ...
I chose to cruise with the Pearl instead of the Sky because I had never been on the Pearl and thought it would be nice to experience a new NCL ship, what a mistake, this ship has the worst customer service, I have taken 21 NLC cruises and had NEVER had this experience, they where not perfect but little issues we have encountered on other ships were well handled by staff and officers. This was my ...
