Creator's Key Takeaways

today has been quite interesting for my first experience on NCL after over 30 solo cruises it's my first solo cruise on Norwegian Cruise Line

I felt nickel and Di before even stepping onto the ship since this was my first time cruising NL I for a basic package that I could get

I love love love my state room this solo Ocean View cabin I absolutely love it and I would recommend it

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Bring a bottle of wine only if you have the free at sea promotion to avoid a $115 corking fee

✓Use the luggage drop off option for carry-ons since cabins may not be ready upon embarkation

✓For gluten-free options, flag down a manager to place an order and note you cannot order for the same day

✓The NCL app may have inconsistent information; rely on the paper schedule for show times

🆕New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Nickel and diming feeling — Form your own opinion despite hearing complaints; don't let it stop you from sailing

Cabin readiness upon embarkation — Use luggage drop off option since cabins may not be ready before 3:30 p.m.
