The sad signs of the new NCL

This cruise from NYC to Rome was quite interesting. Some good, but far to many missteps by NCL. This was a 16 day cruise from NYC to Rome. The Good. The entertainment was first rate. "Burn the Floor" and "Six" were both professional presented and satisfying to watch. The various bands around the ship were good. The Syd Norman show was excellent. The combined ship band concert in the ...

If you are thinking of booking a cruise with NCL then just don’t, at least not before reading about the very poor recent cruise experienced and confirmed by speaking to over 100 people during the cruise This issues started about 4 weeks before departure. A quick email from the travel company, Cruise Nation in this case, ( who equally gave a very poor experience in so many ways), to say there ...

Having been on two previous cruises with NCL, which were lovely, we booked this cruise because of the ports which were shown on the itinerary. NCL left it very late, in fact too late to cancel without forfeiting 50% of our money, before telling us that there was a maintenance problem with the ship and that we had to travel at a slower speed. This resulted in the very two ports we wished to visit, ...

First, a Quick summary. Wifi sucks/slow even with $30/day package and you need to buy for the whole voyage can't do just 1-2 days you need or get some little minutes package for hefty price. Other cruise ships packages are more customized and lot cheaper. Main dining room menu was so boring that didn't even bother going there. Buffet food was good, Croissant and some deserts were among the ...

We haven't cruised since COVID changed the world. We understand the new way of being. Got it. Not the issue. To begin, we had transfers, airport to hotel, hotel to ship, ship to airport. Completely unsatisfied. Upon arrival (JFK) we followed the (limited) instructions on the documents in hand only to find no one there to provide the transport. To shorten a miserable and tedious story, SEVEN ...

I was disappointed with cruise. The food was mediocre at best. Freestyle dining is misleading. Dining rooms were full except for very early or very late. Don’t know how entertainment was since size of auditorium is small and shows filled up This is first cruise I’ve been on that reservations had to be made for everything including tenders. When complained of limited dining times was told about ...

Embarkation was a breeze when we entered the terminal around noon, we got right on the ship, and that’s when things started going downhill. Immediately upon entering the Breakaway you can tell that the ship is in need of refurbishment. We noticed torn up carpet in a main dining room, our bathroom floor had what appeared to be duck tape holding down the trim. There’s many doors and walls with ...

Sailed 8/21 - 8/28/2022 from New York to Canada. Mini Suite, Club Balcony, Midship. Pros: Food very good. Abundance of staff. All very polite, friendly and efficient. Ate mostly in TASTE restaurant which was smaller and intimate vs. the chaotic, noisy Manhattan Room. Good service - sometimes spotty due to lack of managerial leadership, but the staff were excellent. SAVOR restaurant not ...

Boarding time planned for 12:30 pm . Received an anonymous text from a 5 digit number to come later. Others in my party received no text. First communication by this method even though I received 2 emails a day about watching the safety video. 3.5 hrs to get on ship, everyone told to come between 4 -10pm, some folks with handicaps, small children and elderly had a very hard time, I hope no one ...

Very unorganized from the gecko. Gave us incorrect boarding times for 3 longs weeks before sailing even when we called and asked online representatives. No one knows the answers or has control of anything. Then 48 hours before sailing we get a text about change of boarding time which changes original choices of 9-3pm to 4-10pm and everyone is crammed on a 12 blocks horrendously long line to board ...
