Frequent cruiser now reevaluating whether to cruise with NCL in the future

Itinerary - Chose this itinerary because of the featured port - Bermuda; the only port we didn't visit was: BERMUDA - We fully understand that the change was made in the name of safety - Contingency plan was wholly inadequate - an extra day in Bahamas, an added day in Miami - Having been to Bahamas before, there was nothing of interest to do there again - Miami was framed as a ...

I’ve been cruising for 30 years. Never again with Carnival.

Let me start by saying I never write reviews. I’m a busy Mom of 4 and I just never have the time. That being said, this cruise was so horrifyingly awful that I’m taking the time to go out of my way and warn others. I had expected to experience a certain amount of inconvenience, knowing that the ship was new to Carnival, but decided to go ahead with my plans despite the reviews I had read. Allow me ...

I just got off this cruise today and what a doozy. This was my first Carnival cruise, and officially my last. The ship was WAY too small for the number of passengers (4280). To begin, we arrived at the NYC Port and there was no one properly directing you to baggage drop off/the line to check in. People were NOT pleased. People in line for over an hour were told to get out and get back in line. ...

I have never cruised before, and I took the 8-night cruise out of New York to the Bahamas and Florida with an experienced cruiser as my companion because the travel dates on this Norwegian trip worked for our schedules and we could avoid flying to the departure point in Manhattan. I had low expectations, but Norwegian still managed to be a complete disappointment. Embarkation was pretty orderly ...

Full Disclosure, I do currently own stock in Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings (NCLH), though to be blunt this is not a positive review and I likely won’t be sailing with NCL in the future (for details keep reading). As much as I would love to recommend this company and this ship (for my own personal financial benefit), I simply cannot. I had some major issues along with many, many minor issues ...

This was the worst cruise me and my husband have ever been on... and that's of many! We cruised with a parent, us, a teen and baby. The cruise ship is very poorly designed. Way too many people and not enough seating ANYWHERE We traveled during March break which we expected to be busy.. this was a whole new level. Forget being able to see a show or go to a specialty resteraunt if you didn't book ...

Our 2nd cruise with NCL was a disaster. Staff were rude and miserable. Food was meh. Service at Taste and Savour was a disaster - service was so bad it took 2 hours to eat and we were late for events. They only cleaned our room once a day and our bunk beds remained in place - it was never cleaned until 4 pm everyday. Staff were rude!!! We were supposed to go to Bermuda but they took us to ...

Have sailed on NCL on 3 occasions and 2 other cruise lines as well. Had minor issues on previous cruises but nothing worth a negative review and had enjoyable experiences. This current one was terrible, from the food to thedelays and the confusion on board. You can tell the ship was way understaffed and the crew was exhausted trying to keep up with their responsibilities. But they still did their ...
