This is our first Alaskan cruise and 9th with NCL. I think we may be suffering from NCL burnout or the cruise was not as exciting as it was for me (though I will admit this cruise was my wife's idea). My fellow Cruise Critic members will have posted much better reviews than I so I will continue to highlight the Good, The Bad and the Ugly aspects of our trip.Background: My wife, daughter and I ...

We returned from the Star to Alaska yesterday and had a great time. We are a family of 4 with 2 children ages 13 and 9. We have sailed 3 times prior (once with the kids) all on Princess. I will try and touch on the different aspects of our cruise and will do a separate review of the ports on the Alaska boards.
Overall - We enjoyed NCL and the Star, but not quite as much as Princess. This ...

Just got home from our trip to Seattle and Alaska. There were 7 of us that were on this trip. My parents (in their 60's), my husband and our three sons (10, 8.5, and 5). We had two cabins between us. We chose the penthouse with balcony on deck 12 (#12010) and my parents had one of the owner's suites (#12002) just a few steps away. The VIP treatment that we received going thru security and ...

This was our 2nd cruise with Norwegian Cruise Lines.The first was fantastic aboard the Pearl and the 2nd was very disappointing aboard the Star.
Embarkation in Seattle was very smooth, as well as debarkation in Seattle.
We had a party of 12 on this cruise and had booked through Norwegian Cruise Lines direct. Some minor problems with the booking director is where the first ...

I'm inspired to write this because I read every review available prior to us leaving on our first ever cruise and it was an immense help. Hopefully this will provide some valuable information for at least a few people. For background, we are an energetic couple in our 30s who like to stay busy, but also like to marvel at mother nature's beauty. I had bought a walking tour book from Amazon and this ...

We really looked forward to this cruise and had decided to make the most of it however it turned out.We had read good, bad and mediocre reviews of the star, but hoped our trip would fall into the good category however, mediocre is the word best described for our overall experience. Embarkation was quick. Loved how quick we got on the ship. The staff was courteous, but in robot mode. Mostly we ...

Well what I have read about NCL is true. Probably the worst overall experience I have ever had. It started bad with over 3 hours to get through embarkation. It was a total disaster; and never a word of explanation from anyone from NCL. Almost 1/3 of the passengers were not on the ship for muster and never went through the drill. Now for the good, bad and ridiculous.Ridiculous:No concern for the ...

If you're not fancy people, don't own ball gowns or tuxes and want to eat with your companions, then Norwegians Freestyle Cruising is the way to go! Casual wear, including jeans is our kind of cruise. We cruised on the Norwegian Star to Alaska in late May. We had the best weather, no rain whatsoever. The ports of call were Ketchikan, Juneau, Skagway and Prince Rupert, all were great ports to ...

We (DH and myself) travelled with another couple. We arrived a day early in Seattle. Stayed at the Travelodge as they had a pre cruise special of $114/night for 4 adults. This hotel was perfect for what we needed. Basic room only 2 blocks from the space needle and a quick monorail ride down to the market. Embarkation was very smooth. We arrived at the pier about 11:15 am and our friends had ...

ALASKA WAS GREAT - SHIP WAS BADReview for a Alaska Cruise on Norwegian Star

Norwegian Star was a big disapointment. Ship was not one of the better ones, food was just plain awful and the staff were not the best. One and only NCL trip.Trip to Alaska was good, scenery was breathtaking, weather was pretty good. Shore excursions were also good - Did a trip to the Mendenhall Glacier in Juneau and went with the crab fishing boat (from Deadliest Catch) in Ketchikan.Lineups to ...
