This is our 5th cruise in 4 years with NCL.
Our first one in November 2014 was from Boston to New Orleans which was great as it was our first and everything was new to us. Our second was a week-long "booze cruise' from Miami to the Caribbean in January 2015. Because this was a mere two months from the first, I assumed the dishes in the main dining salons and the speciality restaurants were on the winter menu and hadn't been changed. So I was surprised when the food was the same on a transatlantic trip from Miami to Dover in May 2015. We left it a year and then tried the Hawaiian one in June 2016. Again, the dishes were the same.
For this Christmas 2018 cruise, we could see the improvements in the refit, especially in the Bliss Louunge and Spinnaker which is now sited at the top and front of the 13 deck as well as fresh decor in the cabins etc. On a separate note, it was lovely to see the Aussie entertainment director, Dave who we met on our first cruise.
Our cabin is actually for people with disablities and was around the corner from the 9th deck Aft lifts. I was concerned it would be noisy but it wasn't and it was extra roomy as a result.
These guys are bending over backwards to welcome you to Bunrie which is trying very hard to position itself as an artisan city. The museum showing the tough beginnings this place began under is particularly good.
