New York (Manhattan) to Bermuda Cruise Reviews

We liked the itinerary, so we went ahead and booked it. We regret our decision as our previous experience on a cruise was a Oasis class RC ship, which has WAY more stuff to do. Almost all the shows were cancelled (including the two main shows) and the included food was borderline awful. Simply put, we got bored and regret this sailing. The vibe we got is this was more of a booze-cruise where ...

Everything you are reading in the reviews is the truth. Long wait lines, 4.5 hours of standing for myself and family with no explanations at all. Planned departure was April 19 at 4 pm. Actual departure after midnight. No drinking water available unless you purchased a case or two. Bypassed the first port of call with little to no explanation. Passengers being nickeled and dimes for every little ...

NEVER AGAIN TL;DR understaffed, overbooked, disorganized, rude, horrendous service, erroneous charges This was my first cruise. My mother bought it as a gift for my sister's 50th birthday, which was in 2020. Obviously we couldn't go then, so we decided to do it now. First problem was the Bermuda Travel authority which needed to approve your application before you could board the ship. Clearly ...

This was the by far worst cruise trip I ever had among all 6 cruise trips I had before. (3 were Norwegian). Not sure they were not ready post-pandemic, or they didn't expect this many people will be on this cruise. Bad planning and worst execution. I heard only a few hundred shorts from the full capacity. So, the ship was almost full. Still no apologies from the NCL and no explanation ...

My husband and I took about 30 cruises with different cruise companies and Norwegian Getaway was the worst experience in cruising we ever had! First of all, the embarkation was horrible! Even though we completed all paperwork and uploaded negative Covid test results, pictures, etc prior to embarkation, it took us 6 and a half hours to get onboard! After standing 3 hours outside in the cold, ...

This was the worst cruise EVER. The only good thing was we had an awesome Cabin Steward. We waited on line 4 hours to get on board the ship. Norwegian did not accept our negative Covid test results even though I called NCL to make sure the date would be acceptable for a Sunday departure. We had to pay an additional $150 and get tested there at the pier. We paid an additional $40 for a ...

Charter cruise/music experience on a cruise. I've sailed on many ships to many locations. While the charter piece of this cruise was extremely well done, NCL was horrible as a provider of the sailing experience. Sailed on the The Gem. Again, I realize this was a charter and an old smaller ship so my comments take that into consideration. Food: Horrible, tasteless, always cold and items ...

We were sailing out if NYC parked the car in the terminal lot at noon when we had a scheduled appointment..and had to walk a city block to be Covid tested ( 2 tests) in another terminal...It took over 4 hours in the hot terminal waiting in line after line. ! You got the results back from the rapid Covid and we’re approved you get a wrist band and then told to truck on back to the first terminal ...

This was our first cruise post covid shut downs. Ncl canceled our original Boston to bermuda cruise and 3 others due to covid. We had booked the joy out of Miami for the same week, we had a haven suite and of course they canceled that on us without explanation. Since we had that week scheduled off from work the Breakaway out of NYC is what we rebooked. They jacked the prices and we now had to ...

Let me first say, we love to cruise! This was the first cruise we scheduled after COVID. We chose this ship and this itinerary because we didn't want to fly and we could drive to NYC. We have also sailed on this ship twice before and we loved the entertainment. We also believed that we would be safe since EVERYONE had to be vaccinated and test negative for COVID prior to boarding. NCL's ...
