  1. Rather disappointed with this.I will keep a lookout to see how Celebrity cruises fare and check back with NCL.
  2. I would love to do Iceland by land, however; Iceland and Norway are on our list, so a cruise was most convenient. We are booked on Norwegian Prima next year for an 10 day cruise starting in Reykjavik (with two days prior to start of cruise), two stops in Iceland, 3 in Norway, Amsterdam, Brussels, and ending in Southhampton. We will probably add two days on at the end in London. We have too many destinations we want to see, so cruising is usually our go to.
  3. Safe travels and absolutely following along. My trip choice is next year to Iceland/Norway and my partner has picked Africa for his pick next.
  4. Not true. I just recently extended my 2023 booking.
  5. We have this stop next summer for about 11 hours. The excursion for the Troll Road… is it worth it? Would there be enough time to do that and Mt. Aksla?
  6. There are definitely some horror stories out there. I am flying from Philadelphia to Reykjavik and London to Philadelphia next August with the air promo. I extended the trip by two days on both ends, so hoping that will help.
  7. They may add the 3 point per night offer on to the current promo.
  8. I have gotten pretty decent deals through their Veterans Day Sale (odd) and their Black Friday / Cyber Monday sales, all approaching. Good luck.
  9. The MDR's look stunning! The menus are more impressive than I was expecting. We have a 10 day cruise next year, so I think we will have a good balance of specialty and MDR meals. Thank you for such detailed photos.
  10. Loving this review so far! Im glad there's not much pool space. I'll be on the Iceland/Norway cruise next summer, so I think ocean blvd is perfect! Can't wait.
  11. The options for speciality dining look enticing, but this may make me wait to purchase a dining package.
  12. Picture perfect fall day in the NY area today.Wonderful pictures. Thank you for getting some good ones from the spa. Am I mistaken or did I misread, I thought covid testing wasn't required anymore? Possibly because of the Bermuda destination. Enjoy the ship and Bermuda (and not going to Norfolk).
  13. I am subscribed to this podcast. Its always good. Positive review mostly... I'm now I need to add on a dining package to my 2 meal promo for the specialty restaurants.
  14. Since we have our air booked with NCL, we can extend the beginning and end of our trip by 2 days each. I’m thinking about doing the golden circle and then blue or sky lagoon the other day. I’m hoping this gives us enough of a taste of Iceland, along with our other two port stops in Iceland.
  15. Love the observations thus far. Have you had a visit to the thermal spa?
  16. I am on this itinerary for August 2023. My last cruise was Alaska on NCL. I would like a Norway only cruise, but Iceland is a must do for me and this seemed like the best bang for the itinerary. plus with NCL from Alaska… they have an absolute awesome observation lounge that made the trip for gazing out into the scenery. We also had thermal spa passes which was the best. They have the awesome glass views while lounging on heated tile loungers. It was heaven!!! Really looking forward to this itinerary on the Prima.
  17. I hope your time gets better on NCL sailing. My trip on the Bliss to Alaska was one of the best trips of my life. There are definitely pros and cons to set time dining and freestyle. I don't like a specific time to eat at. As you said, the waitstaff do not get to know the guests and it is a little impersonal. However, I hate being seated with strangers unwillingly. Enjoy the beauty that is Alaska.
  18. The photos are wonderful!!! Only 349 more days until I sail the Prima. 😂😂
  19. Loving these photos. The chandelier on the Joy is 👌
  20. Glad to see some photos of the thermal spa area pop up. Really loving the different concept they have with it. Looking forward to it.
  21. Following along! I have been wanting to do the Canadian/ New England cruise forever. Especially since NYC is only 90 minutes away. Your room is gorgeous! Love the photos. Enjoy the cruise!
  22. I was definitely looking forward to those fire pits for our Iceland / Norway trip next year. That’s a bummer, but I am loving all of the photos.
  23. I’m hoping some photos from guests will start appearing. We got a spa balcony and love the thermal spas.
  24. We should start to see some photos soon 🤗🤗NYC Elvis Duran morning radio is reporting live from the Prima this morning.
