NCL Sky has seen it's better days

So I ended up on this cruise because my previous European cruise through another cruise line was cancelled due to the war in Israel. So, I still wanted to get the heck outta dodge so booked this NCL cruise. Reviews stated that this ship was refurbished in 2019. Well, if this is the case then NCL should get their money back. Allow me to back up a bit. Yes, I know this is a smaller ship, that ...

Nice itinerary, horrible cabins, great staff in main dining, rude staff elsewhere

We chose this cruise for the itinerary and price-we've never cruised on NCL until now. Our cabin is extremely noisy and uncomfortable!! Guest services offered us a smaller room after someone came and heard/experienced the noise in our cabin. We decided to take a ton of sleep medicine each night instead of moving rooms (the smaller room only sleeps 2 and we are a family of 3, so it would've been ...

Instead of refurbishing this ship, it needs to be retired. The advertised balcony room that we paid for is not what we got. We thought we would have a sliding door, with full glass. Ahhh no. It is a porthole and the heaviest door to push open and pull on. Be aware that every time you order room service, $9.95 is added to your bill. $20.00 per person, is automatically added to your bill ...

It has been quite a while since we had cruised on NCL. We are Platinum level members so we know what to expect, at least that is what we thought. Pros: Food had good taste and generous portions. Even the buffet food was hot. Good variety of dishes in the buffet also. The beds were comfortable and bathroom linens thick and snowy white. Imelda in the buffet area was awesome and noticed ...

Disappointed NCL experience

Chose this cruise for a reunion of friends. Food - poor for specialty restaurants - meat entrees ordered were tough and chewy, Rib Eye and Pork Loin in Cagneys and NY Strip in Teppanyaki. Buffet food in Garden Cafe was average. Bar food in Local was average. Food in Manhattan, Savor and Taste were average. Wait staff - NCL did a poor job training their wait staff. Staff in Manhattan, Savor, ...

I want my 9 days back! My wife and I purchased a nine day cruise on NCL Sky departing Miami on 16 October 23. The planned itinerary included the following stops: Puerto Plata Dominican Republic, San Juan Puerto Rico, Philipsburg St. Maarten Netherland Antilles, St. Johns Antigua, St. Thomas U.S. Virgin Islands, and Great Stirrup Cay, Bahamas. Check in at the cruise terminal was typical; ...

The best part of cruise was the easy check in process but later learned it was because the ship was empty and sailed from Baltimore. Now for the bad, the food is absolutely terrible! The pizza only available for 3 hours each day (12pm-3pm) The buffet choices were few and slacking. The best meal we had was at Cagney's Steakhouse. Bill was $202 but luckily we had 2 free meals with cruise ...

This trip was very unfortunate one. If you are trying to trip with itinerary, don't try this cruise line. This is the second times we are with them and they cancel stops. This time they canceled three stops which was so awful. We plan cruise trip once a year by destination almost at the same time and we are not happy with this cruise line at all. They said due to the the weather conditions and our ...

Small cabins, limited dining options, shoddy port hours

So, I tried Norwegian for my birthday and Norwegian needs to do better. The dining is subpar. Even worse there a barely any restaurant options. The cabins are extremely small, really for one person, there were 3 of us. And to make things worse, we were at two of our ports of call for maybe 5 hrs! Oh and in addition to the very small cabins, if you want to watch TV, there are barely any channels to ...

Terrible Ship

To begin, the ship is old and literally falling apart. The first night there was mechanical problems that forced us to miss our first port. We witnessed a handle railing break, the towel rack in our stateroom fell off the wall, and two staterooms of two guests we met were flooded. It was apparent that cost cutting was the focus of the trip, as the food was the worst we have ever had (out of 6 ...
