Day two into our holiday cruise i received a rather rude letter in my stateroom, a courtesy phone call would have been nicer, stating that my credit card was stopped and i had my ship card cancelled,having checked and called my bank it had never been stopped..it was the the ships staff's fault..no apology and rude service at the service desk.
Drink package extremely too ...

Good food
staff very attentive & friendly and well trained on the boat
Let down by shore excursion fiasco!
Also the embarkation person to allocate our cabin forgot his glasses & logged us into the wrong stateroom . We had to get the supervisor to sort this out !

We chose this cruise to coincide with school holidays as we took two of our 4 children with us aged 10 & 14. This was a bad idea as they were bored the whole trip. The kids club was mainly playing video games and this didn’t interest them. So I had to entertain my kids. It was not much of a holiday for me tbh. If you were over 50 then this trip is perfect from the music to the classes for origami ...

This was our second NCL cruise and found the experience excellent.
Embankment was fine although in Sydney it takes a little while to clear customs.
The ship had been recently refurbished and was like new. However some of the updates looked like it had been a rush job but it was still very good.
We found the ship very easy to navigate and explore. This was stark contrast to our previous ...

My sister and I have just returned from a very enjoyable 12 night cruise on the Norwegian Jewel sailing to New Zealand. We stayed at the Holiday Inn in Sydney, with lovely views of the harbour from the rooftop pool area, the night before sailing. The hotel was clean and comfortable and a 5 minute walk to the cruise terminal. Embarkation was quick and painless.
Although the ship was full it ...

Went on this cruise with two friends. Generally saying the ship spent far to much time navigating from one port to the other and spent ample time when it was at a location, making it not possible to make a longer trip ashore.
Also, one could not call it a Pacific cruise, as it only went to New Caledonia in the pacific.
If you really want to do something you had to take NCL's expensive shore ...

Did the 13 day South Pacific and North Queensland Cruise. Family of 4 in Aft Mini-Suite.
Kids 10 and 16.
The itinerary was pretty good with nice visits to Noumea, Isle of Pines (Magnificent), Lifou, Cairns, Airlie Beach, Brisbane and Sydney.
No need for overpriced shore excursions at any port (although due to brief stops at Cairns and Airlie Beach only the ridiculously expensive short ...

Review of Norwegian Cruise Lines ship Jewel 1/5/19 thru 1/30/19
The Norwegian Jewel can be a good value depending on your priorities. I’ll touch on what I felt were the major items to help you make that decision.
Price: When you compare prices, the NCL ships appear to be a good value. Remember to add mandatory port charges and $15 per person per day gratuities. These might be included in ...

We chose this cruise because we wanted to try a new cruise line after a couple of less-than-impressive experiences with our long-time favorites, Princess. We had heard good things about NCL, so it seemed a good option to explore when I received a really good promotional offer. The deal turned out even better than I expected, because it included two premium drinks packages, which saved us a ...
