Creator's Key Takeaways

Buffet absolutely sucks. It just does.

Specialty dining that I've had so far has been excellent.

The drinks top-notch. Top-notch for sure.

Norwegian has not been my favorite cruise line.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Plan for a 45-minute embarkation process in Jacksonville.
Consider getting transfers from the airport as Uber can be expensive and slow.
Make sure to have an adapter for your cabin as there is only one outlet.
Book specialty dining, especially with the More at Sea package.
If you have a Wi-Fi minute package, log out to preserve minutes.
