The Birds always enjoys a good Teppanyaki dinner. Hasuki is where the action is. There is efficiency in having one chef make food for a full table of 8. The fun of a Japanese steakhouse is the energy that everyone at the table brings as the chef preforms. The designers of the Prima opted for a smaller venue. Fewer tables. And they even created 2-top Teppanyaki tables, which The Birds don’t think would be as fun. Digital Menu

Too much cooked fish in Palomar? Get uncooked fish at Nama Sushi Digital Menu

The Prima Theater and Prima Club. Why two names? The Prima Theater has entrances on Decks 6, 7, and 8. Deck 8 is the balcony. Finally a way to get everyone in and out quickly! For the Donna Summer show, they old standbys to go to the Deck 8 balcony. But, late night, the front orchestra section folds down and back (something I can only describe as an advance high school gym with bleachers that fold up) creating a dance floor.

There is a Starbucks in the Penrose Atrium and the Indulge Food Hall. If you don’t see your favorite drink, just ask. Yes you can use your Starbucks card or do a room charge. Yes, there is Chai Tea (hot or cold).

Syd Norman’s is another venue which is a bit undersized.
-
There is a small smoking casino
-
The main casino is non-smoking. All brand new machines! Hot tables.

The Price is Right *LIVE* NCL paid $$$ to get the rights and game. Mountain Climber contestant with $0 to spare won a large flat screen TV Plinko contestant got 5 tokens and won $625 cash Race contestant did not win. Showcase winner got Tumi luggage. If they were within $100 of price of showcase, they would have won a Corvette. All pricing game contestants were selected randomly from those who swiped in (reservations required).

We needed vaccinations, tests, $40/per person Bermuda Travel Authorization for a 6 hour port call.

Welcome to Bermuda Folks from the Carnival Legend (vintage 2002) are “admiring” the Prima (vintage now).

Need a laugh??? The Improv Comedy Club is the place to go. Early shows are family oriented. Late shows 18+. Now… this club is about half the size as The Social on recent NCL ships. It seats only 50 passengers. 10 minutes before show time, they let in another 50 SRO (Standing Room Only) guests forcing them to stand at the back of the room. Pro Tip: Book as soon as you embark. The shows sell out really fast.

Fine whiskey anyone?

Pre-pandemic Symphony
-
And yes, all of the pool areas are small. Especially compared to the Allure. The Bird was on the inaugural voyage of the Symphony after being christened. And the true maiden voyage of the Wonder of the Seas earlier this year. And the first voyage of the Harmony out of her new home port of PC. Mega mega.

The main pool. Small area. Small pool. Just a few rows of loungers and two hot tibs
-
Stadium is complimentary.
-
To me, lots of very interesting lounging space. Much better than Vibe.
-
See next post. Kinda tiny. Space most of the day.
-
Ocean Boulevard, the Waterfront of the Prima. Mostly a sundeck extension. On Deck 8, you can walk completely around the ship from bow to stern. No crew area on the bow, just a passenger walking path and spare anchor. Two segments over water. Lots of folks getting their morning steps! There are a lot of balcony rooms that look down onto the Ocean Blvd… may not be the view you were expecting.

The Stadium, new on the Prima, offers games and activities including table shuffleboard, super foosball, pickleball, foot soccer, table tennis and more
