This was an opportunity of a lifetime. We saved for years to take this cruise. Never received the itinerary or tickets until 2 days before we sailed. I called the Miami offices to speak to someone and at least to make sure we were booked. They admitted the error but what can you do. Things happen! 3 couples that we met had combined cruises of over 70 cruises and they said they would never sail NCL again. Our first glimpse of the cabin, it was not cleaned. The pillows were stained with God knows what. The buffet and "free food" were mediocre @ best. We ate in the more upscale restaurants, but you had to pay a cover charge per person. So, if you wanted a fairly good meal, the cover charges were up to $50.00 per person. When we arrived @ the airport, the drop off point for the bus to airline was @ least a quarter of a mile away. The elderly with us were having a dreadful time moving luggage and themselves. Once off the ship the ports of call were beautiful. I would love to see more of Alaska, but not by NCL cruise lines. Everyone recommends HAL. I won't bore you with further tales of our adventure. Suffice to say it was one problem after another. I never complained because, really, what will they do? I will just take my business elsewhere. Avoid NCL like the plague. Thanks for listening.
