Just got back from Med cruise on Escape . A few points . Don’t expect to arrive in the Ports as listed , the ship is too big so you will be more or less forced to take the expensive Tour options offered by NCL . On disembarkation day don’t expect to hang around the ship any later 9.30am on the final day . The enjoy the bun fight with everyone trying to get a Taxi . Finally when you receive your final bill for onboard services plus hefty gratuity , if you leave a uk debit card , they will give you a robbery exchange rate of circa $1.06 to the £ so be warned .

They change their chicken wings from fried to boiled and they are terrible and of course they did this to save money. They also use a much lower quality Wing they look so bad like Frankenstein wings and they no longer give out wet wipes I mean come on NCL how cheap can you really be

What made the captain’s cockpit party so good? What was it like and what do they have there?
@iconic-adventuresАй бұрын
I think you meant captain's "cocktail party". If I misunderstood, just let me know. It was cool and not an experience that we ever had before. And it doesn't last a long time. The Captain and quite a few of the other senior officers had a receiving line for the Haven guests that you walked through to meet them all and you had a couple of minutes to ask them questions and to have a short conversation. There also was some refreshments.

From all the videos I've watched, the Fantasy seems like Disney's best ship
@iconic-adventuresАй бұрын
Thanks! We loved the Fantasy! I do think that the Fantasy (and its sister ship the Dream) is better than the two older ships (Magic and Wonder) because it's bigger and offers more variety of activities and venues. Having said that, we just got off the Wish and it was amazing. Really liked the adults only area on the back of the ship, that was a big improvement from the adults area on the older ships. We also really enjoyed the Frozen themed dinner/show and the Marvel themed restaurant.

Thank you so much for this video! We’re getting ready to sail in the Haven on the Breakaway for a transatlantic in February 2025. This will be our second Haven experience and I have to say that the Haven on the Breakaway looks to be more enjoyable than on our previous NCL ship. ❤

@iconic-adventuresАй бұрын
I agree with you - the Escape also has a hot tub on that deck. However, the Courtyard hot tub was still pretty fun - just not "outside." And the hot tubs overlooking that back of the ship in Spice H20 were also pretty cool. Anyway, thanks for the positive feedback and I hope you have an awesome vacation.

I just got back. Was the last cruise of the year. NCL. I say, if its not busy, buy them yoruslef. I paid 60 dollars for tours that were 350 if bought through the cruise. Im also younger so take that into account. If its busy and you have trouble getting around, then its worth it. If young and have time/not busy season, dont.
@rgruenhausАй бұрын
O'SHEEHAN'S needs to stop saying they are open 24/7. NCL is slowly taking away open hours by claiming it's to set up for the next meal period and the menu is being stripped of many enjoyed items during the night. How can they take away loaded nachos at night? Certain burgers aren't available either. I go there expecting to get what i like that tgey offer during the day! So sad.

Looks like if you sail in haven NCL , then private crew push your wheelchair 🦽 ♿️ all the way where vehicle to pickup is . But if you are not in haven then you get pushed where suitcase pick up is . Then you r on your own. Then I have to push the wheelchair and suitcases. So disable people do get treated different . Who made up this rule . 🤔. Shame on NCL .

I may have missed it in the video, but I heard there is a 20% gratuity at The Haven restaurant? If that's true, how much is that if the restaurant is free for Haven guests? (Basically, 20% of what?)
@iconic-adventuresАй бұрын
No, that is not correct. But a totally understandable question, so glad you asked it. The Haven Restaurant (food) is included with no gratuity charged. Drinks, on the other hand, would be subject to a 20% gratuity. If you get the unlimited open bar package then you would pay a one-time 20% gratuity when you book it. Otherwise, you would pay 20% gratuity on top of each drink. Hope that clears it up.

I pulled this off of NCL’s web page: Owned in partnership by NCL and the Belizean government, all restaurants, bars and shops on Harvest Caye are entirely Belizean-operated, making it an authentic Central American destination. All team members working on the island are locals. All stores in the shopping village are Belizean-owned.

Hi! Thank you for this great video! I am just in the beginning stages of planning our 2027 cruise for our 25th anniversary. I’ve narrowed it down to Alaska on the Norwegian Joy. And I am definitely staying in the Haven. I am heavily leaning towards the same aft facing suite like you had. My question is…. Since these are in the aft of the ship and most of the Haven amenities are in the forward….did you find it a pain to get to the lounge, restaurant, sun deck etc? I’m loving the idea of the large balcony especially for Alaska, but worried about the walk to & from the lounge and restaurant. How was your experience? Would you rather have that huge aft facing deck or be closer to the Haven? Thank you again for this video, it was super helpful!
@iconic-adventures2 ай бұрын
Great question. You are correct that it is a hike between the aft suites and the Haven (for the pre-Prima ships). We loved the huge balcony and would absolutely do it again. In fact, that would be my preference because of the huge balcony and the huge bathroom. But, we enjoy walking around the ship and seeing what’s going on. For someone with any mobility issues, I would recommend staying in the Haven complex. Best wishes on your anniversary and your trip planning.
