Creator's Key Takeaways

I went on backtoback press trips on Norwegian Aqua. The first one was a five night press trip out of Lisbon, Portugal of all places.

Infinity Beach is the spot on I think it's on deck eight on both sides of the ship where they actually built infinity pools.

The Aqua Slide Coaster is a cross between a roller coaster and a water slide.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Pre-book a taxi from Southampton to London Heathrow using Aerotaxis-southampton.co.uk.
If you're going anywhere with rough seas, don't get a forward-facing cabin.
Take advantage of the Aqua Slide Coaster on a port day if weather is bad.
