Norwegian Prima Transatlantic NYC/Iceland May 2023

Review for a Transatlantic Cruise on Norwegian Prima

We choose this cruise to experience the new NCL Prima. This ship is different from any of NCL's other ships. The cabins are large and nicely appointed. All entertainment venues are much too small. Reservations are required for the production shows. This was a 12 day cruise and they only had one production show....this is unacceptable. All the other entertainment venues are so ...

As a group of friends that have cruised more than 20 times with multiple companies in multiple countries I can say without a doubt that I have never booked with a cruise line company that is so against helping their customers we had some bad weather during our trip which is understandable that we missed a port here or there but when you are going to be in Port less than 2 hours from your flight ...

Love cruising out of New York City. We are not loyal to any one cruise line and have cruised over 17 times. We booked an Inside cabin and was upgraded to a Balcony as our Inside room was next to a utility room that was very noisy during the evening hours. The staff was wonderful about addressing this problem. We received a tray of chocolates for the inconvenience also. The rooms were both ...

Total Disappointment

One of the destinations on my bucket list was Iceland. The package offered, including airfare was enticing. Even though NCL supposedly arranged the tickets in June 2022, I couldn't get definite details until the cruise was paid in full. They booked Jet Blue for the outgoing flight and Icelandair /Jet Blue for the return. I'll get into more details about that fiasco later. Once at the port ...

A repositioning cruise to Iceland really had us excited. We like and sail Norwegian more than the competition but we have enjoyed them all. It was a real plus to sail on the newest ship in the fleet. We were concerned about some of the unflattering reviews we saw, but we kept an open mind about it. I am just comparing this experience to the 25 +/- other cruises we have been on. Here is what ...

Epic was not built for 4000 passengers

We chose this cruise as it was an Atlantic crossing and wanted to see some new stops that we had not visited. We found the boarding process in NYC to be very efficient. The ship is not built for 4000 passengers as there was very little seating in the dining rooms, bars, buffet, atrium, showroom, other venues where people wanted to view some entertainment options. The wait at the dining rooms ...

Great TA itinerary, marred by a few glitches

We picked this because of the dates and the TA itinerary. We would be visiting ports that were all new places for us. Embarkation went smoothly, even though we arrived a bit later than we would have liked (around 2 pm). We left a bit late but the party on deck was going strong while we sailed. We got a nice evening view of New York and the Statue of Liberty as we departed. The seas were a ...

We booked this transatlantic after our Christmas trip with family was canceled due to illness AND to join some good friends on their first transatlantic. We set our expectations low even though we hadn’t sailed Epic previously as we had friends who had done so. At 6’-6” my biggest concern was the short bed. This indeed proved to be the biggest but not the only issue. I ended up sleeping ...

We booked a long and fun transatlantic. The ports were on our bucket list (Ibiza, Azores, Madeira) and the timing was right. This is the first NCL megaship and we hoped for a lot of dancing opportunities aboard. A review of available daily programs was mixed. But once aboard it was all good. The hub for us was the Manhattan Room. They have a good sized dance floor and small orchestra each ...

Transatlantic to Spain.this was the worst cruise we have been on ever! Be prepared tho stand in line no matter what you are doing!!!anytime dinning means anytime you wait in line for an hour to get a buzzer that makes you wait for another 40 minutes… every time you eat unless you go to the buffet! Buffet has same food every day and other dining rooms (taste and manhattan) are packed. We had a ...
