Creator's Key Takeaways

I'm going to remind you before I start this is our first cruise on Norwegian so we didn't know what to expect and these are just my opinions.

The app easily the worst I have ever seen.

The bar situation was just it was it was a train wreck. It was terrible.

I really think this was the worst ship I've been on.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Be aware that the app only shows one day at a time and you cannot see main dining menus.

✓Expect potential delays in room access on embarkation day.

✓Consider that bar options may be limited and crowded, especially in cold weather.

✓Note that the drink package does not include water, specialty coffee, or energy drinks.

What to expect from Norwegian's freestyle dining — No formal nights on a 10-day cruise; dining is flexible but lacks traditional structure.

App limitations for planning — You cannot see menus for the whole week; plan to visit dining rooms in person.
