NCL is "nice and comfy"

[lhall85917]

Just had to share. DH and I have been looking at cruise ideas for next summer and are trying to find a Mediterranean cruise that hits some favorite ports along with new ones. Until now we thought we were going to probably go with a Celebrity cruise until I came across one offered on the Jade May 3 for 14 days (too bad it isn't also offered all summer - I'm a little concerned about cooler weather then). Anyway...he was very excited when I found that itinerary and said that he likes the idea of being on NCL, it is just "nice and comfy". LOL

 

We have had many NCL cruises, many when their credit card was really worth having. It's been a while since our last one due to having been on many of the itineraries already; however, we are looking forward to our New England cruise on the Gem in September. It will be nice to be back!

I have to agree wholeheartedly with your DH! NCL fits us perfectly, as we're not at all into structure, or stuffy. :D

Depending on your itinerary, May is a glorious month to be in the Med!

May is a fantastic time to cruise the Med - weather is great, fewer crowds, - and sorry those with kids still at home - mostly kid free. I have cruised on the Jade several times, once in Sept and once in May and would jump at the chance for the 14 days in May on the Jade. You will have a wonderful time!

Which date in sept? We're on the Gem Sept. 14th

We did a similar itinerary last May and it was sunny all the way. It got a little windy in the Adriatic though but not enough to spoil the trip. We are easily pleased though when it comes to temperatures! Ken
