Dancing

1-Casual Dining

2-Lots of Days at Sea

3-NYC area departure...no flying

[mumluv2cruz]

1. Ease and cost of getting to/from Embarkation point

2. Food

3. Entertainment

Entertainment

Food

Relaxed atmosphere- eg no set tables for 8 or strict dress codes

[momofmab]

1. Departure port - would rather not have to fly

2. Overall condition of the ship - does not have to be new or mega, but I like updated décor and a minimum amount of wear and tear in the cabin.

3. Best price for a suite. Sky high prices for Haven (during peak weeks, which is when we have to travel right now until we no longer have a kid in school) usually drive us toward suites on the smaller ships. Someday Haven, someday...

food selection: doesn't have to be top of the line, but like choices

friendliness, both crew and other passengers; don't like crabby cruisers.

UBP; I can't believe this makes a difference to us, but it does.

[Melody7]

1. Sail date (I'm a teacher and time is limited)

2. Adult-only area (again, when I sail, so do all kids on their breaks! I LOVED the Vibe on the Getaway)

3. Solo cabin availability

[LrgPizza]

1. Beverage package

2. Nightlife

3. Pool/other daytime activities

[drvalo]

1. Sea days. We like them.

2. Length of cruise. 10-12 days is about perfect.

3. We can drive to the home port. We hate flying.

The ship, for me the ship is the destination. Most all ports have something nice to offer, after 30 cruises one Caribbean beach is as nice as the next. I book all my cruises based on the ship. The age, the size, has be be newer and have all the bells and whistles.

1. Cabin

2. Ship

3. Sea Days (not having them)

 

If 3 is already captured by "port," then 3.5 would be embark and disembark point (in terms of whether there is a reasonably cool place to visit nearby before or after the cruise)

So reading through this list and knowing we are on the Norwegian board Norwegian must have something for everyone because the list is quite diverse! Good job Norwegian!
