This was our first NCL cruise. I am trying to be as fair as possible here as we did have some fun. It was tough to be with a 5 and 7 year old though. Just some weird quirks - like the ship plans on the app make reference to mini golf (it was removed 3 years ago). The arcade was our consolation for the splash academy being closed. It was congested and chaotic with little parental supervision. The staff seemed a bit burnt out to me and who could blame them. We tried Le Bistro and Teppanyaki. Le Bistro was a bust for us and I like French food. Sea Bass was awful. As for Teppanyaki, the kids enjoyed it but it is by no means worth the money (luckily it was free for us). I am sure people had fun. I understand the times we live in as well. However, I don't think we will try NCL for the foreseeable future.

Currently we have our ports. I do not expect to get to St. Thomas as they have skipped three times in a row. Will keep you updated. Dinner was decent. Kids did the arcade for 30 minutes. It was crowded but they had fun. Making the best of no kids clubs.

Correct. Not a supplement. Man as parents we could have used some breaks. This is our first time on ncl too.

I assume a Covid outbreak but we have no idea.

We just found out as we got in our room that the splash academy is closed for the entire week of the cruise. We got the arcade package for free as a result. It also took nearly 2.5 hours from parking to boarding today at port Canaveral. 😔
