Creator's Key Takeaways

this new class of ships are called Prima class ships the first being Norwegian Prima Norwegian Viva was the second that I was on and the third is Norwegian Aqua

the layout to me felt all a bit random and I found finding places was less easy than on other cruise ships

I did actually find the ship was way less boisterous much quieter it was much less noisy compared not only to those other lines

YouTube Video Descriptionโ†“

I met so many regular Norwegian cruisers on my Norwegian Viva cruise that disliked this new Prima class of Norwegian Cruise Line ships that I started wondering if Norwegian had actually gone out of their way to create a new type of ship they knew current cruisers wouldnโ€™t like! Perhaps to attract different cruisers, perhaps cruisers like me. Iโ€™m not a regular Norwegian cruiser, largely because Iโ€™ve not been a fan of the Norwegian ships Iโ€™ve been on, but this ship did some things so differently it made me rethink my position, as you will hear.
