We have recently returned from our 1st Norwegian Cruise on the Jade and are already looking to plan our next adventure with the same cruise line.
Having looked at possible voyages we were really excited by the prospect of booking the maiden voyage of the Escape later this year from Southampton to Miami. I've heard fantastic stories from friends of Maiden voyages from other cruise lines on the special events that are planned, the memorabilia from the event (including freebies) and the general prestige of being amongst the 1st people to try out a new ship. When consulting with the rep on the Jade he promised an event not to be missed and I couldn't wait to get looking at rates etc.
My excitement however has been somewhat tarnished from the various negative reviews I have read from previous Norwegian Maidens. It seems from many people's views it's not all it's cracked up to be with no signs of gifts to remember the event and no special events.
Is there anyone here who has been on a Norwegian Maiden more specifically the Maiden Transatlantic who can offer more insights and offer some hope that its worth it?
many thanks

Interesting what you say there because Norwegian bills the Hamburg leg as the "inaugural" and the Southampton as the "Maiden" What you say does make more sense to me though
