Exceptional experience

Review for a Transatlantic Cruise on Sirena

My brother and brother in law are frequent Oceania cruiser and convinced my husband and I to join them. What a wonderful experience, from exceptional food, staff and comfort. The majority of the entertainment was exceptional. A string quartet which played everyday at tea as well as in the grand hall and a night in the Sirena ounge were extremely talented. As musicians we tend to have high ...

Wanting to celebrate my birthday in a different setting, we chose the Sirena based primarily on the itinerary. We have sailed on Oceania Marina (twice) and the Riviera once so this was not our first experience with Oceania. However, as many other past customers of Oceania discussed not only on this forum, but speaking with many on this particular cruise, Oceania has definitely changed and ...

Four out of five ports missed or messed up

Excellent time on board but 80% of ports screwed up: Azures missed due to bad weather; Brest docked but 1-3 hours to leave ship, same to get back on, with shuttles only running for 4 1/2 hours; Southampton people only started to be able to leave at 2:00 pm, many not until 5:00 pm or later; Zeebrugge missed due to engine problems; Rotterdam worked well. Gave us $100 dollars compensation each ...

I wanted to cruise on the Getaway and the Transatlantic offered a lot for me, 10 sea days which I love and a sister ship to the Breakaway that I love too! I am familiar with the ship itself, the restaurants and all of the entertainment venues and was happy to commit to 16 days on this beauty. The ship was so much like the Breakaway that I've been on 7 times, I was instantly at home. The ...

You can read through the other transatlatic reviews for a detailed recap of what happened - the quick summary is that we missed 2 ports (one due to weather, one due to a mechanical problem), and had some issues with lines and customs clearances getting on and off the ship. Yes, it created some issues, and yes it called for revising itineraries and plans ashore, but that's just how it goes - ...

3rd and Last Transatlantic for me on NCL

I chose this cruise because my husband and I had a lovely experience with a Transatlantic crossing on the NCL Star in 2013. Bad choice! The ship's decor is lovely, not garish and over the top like some cruise lines. The downside is that on a cooler weather cruise, without outdoor activities, the public areas can't accommodate the amount of people onboard. There were almost always waits to ...

Getaway Transatlantic Crossing (and not much else)

My wife and I chose this cruise because of the transatlantic crossing and specifically the ports of Zeebrugee and Ponta Delgada. Unfortunately we missed Ponta Delgada due to high winds and sea but because of a technical issue slowing our speed, Zeebrugee was also canceled. We were also over 4 hours late getting into Southampton which when coupled with over 5 hours to get through UK ...

NCL Service Worst Ever

10+ Cruises • Age 60s

This cruise was HORRIBLE. NCL is focused only on profits and not customer experience. Once they have your money they ignore you. To summarize A: we were to stop at 5 European ports before our arrival in Copennhagen, we only made 1 of the 5. B: The leadership team repeatedly lied to customers and were arrogant. C: They have cut almost every amenity, and you now have to pay extra for ...

Somewhat Disappointing Cruise

This was our 9th cruise with Norwegian and our 1st time we have experienced any issues!  We were disappointed that we had to miss our first port, Ponta Delgada due to high seas but understood.  This however was only the beginning of disappointments we faced.  At next port, Brest France there were issues with the tides interrupting the disembarkation process as the steps had to be moved to a higher ...

Norwegian Getaway - Not a Getaway

This was our first TA cruise. 6 days at sea turned out to be 10. Porta Delgada was cancelled due to high winds, major disaster with disembarkation/embarkation in Brest (talk about walking the plank, that's what literally happened). Immigration problems in Southampton prevented passengers from disembarking until about 2.30 p.m. Captain received approval to stay until midnight but that proved ...
