Creator's Key Takeaways

I'm on the fence, okay? Cat, would you book this again? No. Whoa. I would not. It was not my cup of tea.

I would say it looked premium, but it didn't feel premium. Um that would be my take on it.

Specialty dining holy crap. By far beat Royal, beat Carnival, beat Princess. We ate at Asuka which was the best Teppanyaki experience I think we've all had.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Skip the 'Free at Sea Plus' package as it may not offer true added value compared to standard packages.
Book specialty dining to ensure high-quality food and service, as main dining rooms can be hit or miss.

YouTube Video Description

Everyone’s hyping NCL Luna right now… but does it actually live up to it? We just got off the ship, and we’re breaking it down live — the way we actually talk about it after the cruise. No script. No filter. No pretending everything is amazing. Tonight we’re digging into: Embarkation — smooth or chaos? Ship design & overall vibe Cabins — worth it or not Food — what’s actually good (and what’s not) Entertainment — hit or miss Bars & drink package — smart buy or waste of money And the big one… would we book it again? This is Ship Happens: RAW — where we call it like it is, and yeah… we don’t always agree. So let’s settle it: Is NCL Luna actually hot… or just hype?
