Just too crowded

The food was mostly okay… the ship was over crowded and many guests couldn’t even see the shows due to not enough showing to accommodate all guests. We chose this cruise as it stopped in my husband’s home town of Cornerbrook NL. Of course this was our favorite stop on the cruise. The excursions were okay but not worth the costs. The excursion in Sydney consisted of a woman talking about how ...

A nice ship with potential

The Norwegian Joy is a pretty nice ship with potential to be provide quality experiences. The staff on ship is quite upbeat and pleasant. Restaurants and facilities are closed more than open, there is no quality information in rooms regarding amenities or hours of operation, and there are incredibly long lines for everything. When booking you can pay $200 extra for high speed internet, multiple ...

Wouldn't sail on this ship again. The crew is not to blame, NCL is.

On this cruise, I learned that you get what you pay for! For the price that I paid as a solo traveller, the cruise was just barely OK, so in a way, I have to admit that it's nice that there are choices for bargain hunters, but personally, I will use more caution when booking a cruise in the future, as this cruise, food, ship and choice of activities did not meet my expectations. I am a rather ...

Worse food that I ever ate on a cruise.

The BOGO airfare worked well for us. Check in was a breeze. Our ocean view room was fine & kept clean. We enjoyed the entertainment. All the servers, bar tenders & personnel went out of their way to make our trip enjoyable. Two of our ports were cancelled in Halifax & St John due to weather. We had an extra sea day & stop in Portland MA. Also we couldn't tender in Martha's Vineyard. ...

Make sure your doorway isn't used for the cleaning cart with laundry, dirty plates & glasses, garbage etc most daily hrs. Terrible system! Rip off $10 charge for ANY room service on top of grat. Burger buffet is always the same- no variety except for a few Indian dishes. No am turkey bacon or sausage that other lines serve. All beef items were low quality. No cream for coffee. No good movies & ...

Review of NCL Sky, from Quebec City to Baltimore, October 2023, with suggestions for port activities

After more than 30 years of cruising on all the major cruise lines, I now think that Norwegian Cruise Lines has become the best value in the industry, especially for those who prefer to cruise solo.  While legacy cruise lines seem hostile to singles (usually charging solos 200%, but couples get a discount on the second passenger), NCL is the opposite and offers solo cruisers regular cabins with no ...

Let me start with a broad statement; I really am not crazy about the NCL Breakaway and similar ships. I've done Breakaway, Bliss and now Escape (my wife has also done Joy). I absolutely hate that the Atrium is the place for virtually all "game shows" and on cooler weather cruises, is the site of the glow party and other dance parties. IT IS TOO SMALL. The Escape doesn't have an alternative ...

We chose NCL based on word of mouth from reviews and family. We wanted to leave from New York and we're hoping to visit Canada. We had already visited some of the places on the itinerary so top advantage of those days to explore the Escape since it was our first cruise. We stayed in a Balcony Suite on the 12th floor and were very pleased with the size and comfort of the room. You did not feel ...

Day one, check in there was no greeter when entering terminal. We had to figure out on our own that the burly guy loading luggage onto carts was for our cruise. No signs anywhere. We had to ask if this was for our cruise. We gave him our luggage. They did not weigh our luggage so the 50lb limit was not checked. Entered terminal and followed greeters that were inside. Check in was fine and quick. ...

I'm a 66 YO solo cruiser who hasn't sailed since the start of the recent pandemic. My last cruise was aboard the Coral Princess in Feb '20, sailing from Santiago, Chile to Buenos Aires, Argentina. I booked this cruise for several reasons: 1. I haven't visited New England and Eastern Canada since the mid-70s, when I toured the region with a special needs group; 2. I wanted to sail from a port city ...
