We Gave Norwegian Cruise Line Another Chance - Still Worth it in 2025?

Editorial Summary

The creators evaluate their recent experience with Norwegian Cruise Line to determine if the company remains a worthwhile choice for 2025. After experiencing several disappointing voyages and service issues in recent years, they test the line on a ten night itinerary through Japan and South Korea. They highlight a significant contrast between their high quality suite experience, which included excellent service from their butler and crew, and the standard offerings. While they praise the suite amenities and the value of the More at Sea package, they express frustration with aggressive upselling and difficulties obtaining specific premium drinks. The creators also explore various ports, including a shore excursion in Cabo in Japan and a cultural tour of Seoul, South Korea. They conclude that while Norwegian has seen a decline in entertainment quality and food consistency in non-suite areas, the cruise can still be an excellent experience if travelers select the right ship and itinerary. They ultimately recommend the line for specific trips but urge the company to address declining standards and excessive nickel and diming.
