"One of the luggage attendants told us we could check with guest services after our luggage was delivered, if it was no longer attached to our suitcase when our luggage was delivered to our room.I am sure all cruise lines are suffering post covid, so can’t really compare fairly, but we did notice the difference in how long we had to wait for different services and how engaging staff was...."Read More

What has happened to Norwegian?

While we haven't been on a cruise for about five years, my husband and I have been avid cruisers for many years. We have cruised on most of the major lines and a couple of the smaller ones. Norwegian has been our line of choice for our last several cruises. We had just found them to be outstanding on food, service, comfort and entertainment. With that being said, now all I can say is "what the ...

We sailed on the Norwegian Escape for the second time (the first one was 4 years ago) and I was very disappointed with the service and the low quality this ship provided. Im usually nit good at complaining and see for the positive side , but this ship did not have . Lets start with the drinking package , since everyone is on it , the drinks are horrible made , of course the bartenders don't care , ...

My wife chose this cruise based on the itinerary. I had two covid cruises to make up before the end of June 2023, so we were a bit limited on where to sail based on the time of the year. But, neither of us had been to any of these port before, so it worked out great. I had previously been on Norwegian Escape in 2019. I did solo cruise from NYC to Bermuda. I loved the Escape then, and I still ...

Worst experience ever for Norwegian. I've traveled 2x before on Norwegian getaway and I must say they need to escape back to Europe or wherever else with this ship

I chose this cruise because it was my vacation and I thought since I did the getaway why not try the Escape. I hated the fact that there was no night club on this ship. The cruise director and his side kick were invisible or at best very mediocre. They had no clue about how to keep so many guests entertained. The DJ on the pool deck and at the bar area at night was horrible. His choice of music ...

We picked this cruise because of their special amenity package they were offering: unlimited beverages, 2nd cruiser cruises free, $50 credit on shore excursion, 2 specialty dining tickets per guest, and airfare. I've previously cruised with Carnival and Royal Caribbean and I was excited to see what Norwegian had to offer. I'm giving a two-star rating because the staff was friendly and I really ...

If You're Considering The Haven.... DO IT!!!

Here are my thoughts on our cruise experience on the NCL Escape, including excursions. The Haven was worth EVERY PENNY! It will be very difficult to do another cruise without the same or similar benefits. Embarkation and Debarkation was a breeze. By far the easiest and most stress-free I've ever experienced. When we arrived at the port, we checked in through a side door, with no wait. They ...

We were invited to a wedding aboard this cruiseline. I had heard great things about Norwegian, and had only been on a Carnival Cruiseline before this one. Perhaps I had set my expectations too high, or perhaps I was simply experiencing the aftermath of Covid. Overall, we had a great and very relaxing experience, but these are a couple of my observations that would’ve greatly improved our ...

Wonderful service and accommodating crew yet very crowded and challenging for young families

We have sailed on 5 Norwegian cruises including itineraries in the Mediterranean, Alaska, Eastern and Western Caribbean , Canada and New England. The constant theme is the wonderful service and appreciative attitudes from the employees. We just completed a week on the Escape with stops in Belize, Honduras, Costa Maya and Cozumel. Once again the employees in the restaurants and bars were so ...

Took an Anniversary cruise with Norwegian and never again. Neighbors were smoking on there balcony and cruise staff did nothing. The smell of marijuana was all over the place. People were vaping in the hallways and on the pool deck. Food was terrible at the Buffett and dining rooms. They save the good food for Specialty dining. Had pictures of neighbors smoking and staff said we didn't have ...

This was our first time cruising Norwegian. We chose Norwegian because our previous experience with Carnival was so bad. The positives were that the Escape had solid cuisine, good balcony rooms with an obstructed view, and decent entertainment options. However, the walking track was incredibly small and located in a high traffic area. You'll find it challenging to exercise on this cruise ship. ...
