Just got off the Encore this morning. Ship is in great shape. We were in Haven so mostly ate there but did venture to Onda which was very good and Teppanyaki which wasn’t good. The chef did the usual entertaining Stuff but the food just wasn’t tasty. We should have chosen Ocean Blue instead. Choir of Man was good and the Beatles were fantastic. All the performances of kinky boots were cancelled without explanation. The go karts looked like fun and they always had a long line. The two waterslides were also running most days but it was cold and windy and I have no idea how folks didn’t freeze. Hot tubs on the main decks were always full. The crew were wonderful. From the folks cleaning to the restaurant staff to the Haven folks , everyone was so warm and friendly. Crew were always wearing masks and we did as well. Very few passengers wore masks. Concierge said the ship was at 65-70% capacity. Haven had all 80 cabins full. We were very lucky with the weather. It was gorgeous all week. Juneau and Skagway had sufficient time in port. The new pier outside of Ketchikan is a waste. Even though all aboard was at 12:45pm, the last shuttle from downtown Ketchikan back to the ship left at 11:00 am. And Victoria is a quick stop too, but that’s typical. We had a good time. It was our first NCL cruise but we have 34 cruises under our belt so we aren’t newbies. Not sure we would book the Haven again as it was crazy expensive but it was a good way to ease back into cruising with the ship within s ship concept.
