Why do U LOVE NCL?

Let's hear from all the NCL lovers.... What is it that you love about NCL? Why do you choose to sail it rather than other cruise lines?

Kuki, I think there is another board just down a bit that addresses this question: Ron started it. Anyway here is why I love NCL; The itiineraries are always among, if not the best, as are the crew. Anyone who has had a bad experience with the staff must not have had the stewards and wait staff we have had. Ships do not have to be glitzy to offer a wonderful cruise experience. The overall picture is what counts, from the enbarkation to the entertainment to the activities and finally the debarkation. Has anyone taken time to realize that NCL is a pioneer in the industry. I believe they were the first to offer even one alternative dining experience. That was Le Bistro. Then along came sailing from Houston to such islands as Roatan. I realize ships are sailing from Galveston, not Houston, but NCL got this area started in the late 90s. Now they have added Alternative dining with the Freestyle cruising program. Of course there will be problems when new plans are put into place. For those who are so negative about NCL ask yourselves if Inovation counts for anything? A TRUE LOVER!!!!!!!!

I have sailed NCL 3 times (and RCCL and Princess each 3 times). NCL is a great value for the money. We love the service; the rooms are always wonderful; food is very good; entertainment is great; and the overall feel of the cruise is wonderful. We were on the Sun in December and we loved Freestyle cruising! Sometimes I wonder what I have missed (the negatives) about NCL that others complain about. It's always been a wonderful experience for us. . . Cruisinpat

Our first cruise was on march the 9th on the SKY. We absolutley loved the cruise. ALL of the staff were so polite, and nice it was unbelievable. Freestyle, for us, is the only way to go.........we are planning another cruise and I am positive it will be with NCL.......
We are now "hooked" on cruising......
