Questions & Answers about Norwegian Cruise

Question #1: Which Cruise Line Has the Best Web Site?
If you have used the web sites for Royal Caribbean, Celebrity, Princess, Carnival, Holland America, Norwegian and/or Disney, which of these cruise lines sights is best for (1) finding cruises(2) finding discounts and specials(3) helping you decide on a cabin(4) understanding what a cruise is like(5) making it easy to book a cruise and make payments(6) making it easy to enter your pre-cruise travel information(7) get help on the phone when you need itExplain why you think the web sites you picked are the best?

Answer: i think royal has the best web site. it is well organized,shows a great layout of each ship, and their payment method i think is the best. royal caribbean will work with you while some lines such as carnival and disney make you pay half of it at booking.royal even has sections on if ur a new cruiser or if you have cruised but not on royal..disney automatically adds insurance and other stuff on the bill and you have to remove it yourself.. disney is only good if your trying to add extra cribs,rollaway,high chairs to your room or dinner arrangement.carnival always has popus for a phone operator so if you really need to get ahold of someone i guess that would be nice but otherwise some of their website is disorganized

Question #2: Is it me or is Norwegian Cruise Line HORRIBLE?
I have went on Royal Caribbean and had a blast. I went to Hawaii and went on Norwegian...got treated very badly and they had the "great" idea of free style dining. After the first night you couldn't get into a restaurant that was good. The pool deck bar closed at 8:30pm! The bars in ship were empty with the exception of a few old people...In one case when at dinner, my girlfriend got her order taken and the waitress walked off and didn't take mine for another 10 minutes when I called her back over to the table, honestly that was the worst server I have ever had...Every restaurant in my hometown has better servers then this. Luckily Hawaii is awesome and I got some good Kona bud so the tripped turned out okay. Taking another trip over new years with roal caribbean, Since it is new years there is nornally quite a few partiers and less party poopers (ncl)I am American first off. The NCL cruise I went on wasn't international, so it had a American Staff. That I think is a big problem right there. We as Americans have so many rights that this is a possibility as of why it wasn't as nice. They aren't going to get fired on the spot and sent home like international staffs. The largest part of the NCL staff is not getting paid through tips, so why try hard? why not slack like we are doing right now (on the clock typing on yahoo)?

Answer: I traveled wiht Norwegian once and didn't consider it the best but it wasn't bad either..... just maybe not as fun and people (crew) not as warm. My best experience was with Costa Cruiseline, and I would definitely travel with them again. Norwegian..... I don't know, perhaps but not really eager to do so. I just don't think they suck, though. I love cruises...... hope your next experience is nicer.

Question #3: Big difference between oceanview and inside rooms on cruises?
I am planning on cruising the caribbean in january on the norwegian cruise line ship Spirit. I was just wondering if there really is a big difference between the oceanview and inside rooms on a cruise ship. does is really matter to have that tiny window? do u get clustrophobic without it? any opinions on this are helpful!

Answer: It does not matter!!! Ugh, those rooms are so small, regardless of locale (unless you are rich and get a suite) that you are only there to sleep and pee. Seriously!

How many days is it that they won't allow booking for a cruise line?Say,Carnival, Princess, Royal Caribbean, or Norwegian?Is there a certan time limit before booking; say... on July 14?

Answer: It's a safe bet to book a cruise at least a few months in advance. Go to each of their websites and read their individual policies.

Question #5: Who has been on a cuise?! Is the drinking age enforced?
Specifically on roayl caribbean and norwegian. My boyfriend will be 25 but I'm not quite 21 just yet. Would he be able to buy me drinks? Will they question my age if I buy a drink? We want to be able to relax and not have to worry about all this when we get on the ship. Thanks.

Answer: I had some wine when I was 15 on a cruise at the dinner table. Nobody cared.But once my friend did it, and they gave him a warning. Then he did it again, and they threw him overboard....seriously, what's the worst thing that can happen?

Question #6: Norwegian OR Royal Caribbean Cruises?
which one do you prefer? and why? trying to decide between the two. norwegian offers freestyle but i want a cruise that is fun, has good food and customer service.

Answer: I prefer NCL (Norwegian Cruise Line) over Royal. It's the freestyle cruising that gets me. I hate the idea of someone telling when to eat, how to dress when I eat, and where I must sit while I eat. NCL is fun! I have sailed with them 3 times and had fun on every trip.

Question #7: Are cruises fun? We're thinking about going on the 5 day Western Caribbean Norwegian Pearl Cruise?
Has anyone ever been on this cruise? How does it compare to other cruise lines like Royal Caribbean? I guess it appealed to us because it's "freestyle" which means we won't need to dress up for dinner and we can eat whenever we want. Also the NCL Pearl is new, built in 2007 which should be good. The port stops are Cozumel and Belize City. This will be my first cruise so any opinions would be greatly appreciated :)

Answer: I've been on 2 cruises to the Caribbean via Carnival cruise lines and had a great time on both. Since Carnvial is considered to be a lesser-quality cruise line and I had a blast with them, I can only imagine the higher rated cruise lines would be that much more fun.Cozumel is small and you can rent a car/jeep and drive the whole island in a couple of hours (the road just makes a big circle). There is a pretty coastline, a nature park/lighthouse at one end with things to see and do, all kinds of bars along the beach to stop and have a cocktail, some Mayan ruins, and some touristy shopping and activities. I've been to Cozumel twice...no stops in Belize though so don't know about it.I love travelling on a ship and taking my "hotel" with me! ☺ Am planning a Mediterranean cruise in the Fall, but not sure which cruise line we'll use.Enjoy!
