Creator's Key Takeaways

I thought it was going to be Gody I thought it was going to be two overthe toop Americana and I think it really they pulled it off well it looks good and that kind of I think it looked classy

everything in my opinion on this ship looked very well-kept yes that I think the refurbishment in 2022 really did a good job everything was very clean very freshly painted and in good shape

your connection with the service staff isn't the same not having rotational dining where your server goes with you you lose something right you don't get that connection

I've had better service in chilies

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Purchase the Hawaii beverage package as it covers most drinks including fresh juice
βœ“Request a specific server in the main dining room if you have a good experience on night one
βœ“Visit the Napa Wine Bar for a peaceful atmosphere away from loud music

πŸ†•New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Lack of Broadway style shows β€” The Polynesian Cultural show and other entertainment are satisfactory alternatives
Service quality β€” Request specific servers when you find good ones, and note that 75% of staff are American

YouTube Video Description↓

In the second part of our review of the Norwegian Cruise Line Pride of America 7 day Hawaiian Islands cruise, we tell you about all of the bars on board, and give you a break down of the free at sea drink package, which is slightly different on this cruise than other NCL cruises. We'll give you our opinion about the decor on the ship and how well maintained we thought it was. Then we will tell you all about the entertainment on the ship from the main theater to the lounge singers. And finally we will tell you about our experience with the service on board, which it is well known to be polarizing amongst cruisers. Join us for our last visit to the Pride of America. 00:00 intro 00:12 bars 00:21 John Adams Coffee Bar 01:00 Pink's Champaign bar 02:13 Mardi Gras 02:55 Ocean Drive Pool Bar 03:11 Key West Bar & Grill 03:30 Aloha Lanai 03:51 Gold Rush Saloon 04:29 Waikiki Bar 05:15 Hawaii Beverage Package 06:22 Decor 08:07 Upkeep 09:20 Entertainment 09:45 Great Entertainment staff 10:17 Polynesian Show 11:21 Craft Shows 12:00 Moana 12:26 Service 12:41 Anytime Dining 13:27 Excellent Service 15:12 Is the service that bad? 15:31 Terrible Service 16:43 Is it an America Thing? 17:41 credits Music Slenderbeats - "Doorway"
