tef43 Posted May 25, 2004 #3 Share Posted May 25, 2004 This was sad. So *very* sad. I had an AC suite booked on the Norway for the 10/5/03 sailing, and ended up on the Paradise instead. Combined with the POA fiasco, which has driven the Lloyd Werft shipyard in Bremerhaven into receivership, and other dubious management decisions, NCL has become a virtual non-player in the mass-market cruise industry. It's too bad really, because back in the day they had a decent entry-level product, similar to Carnival in the early 80's, just a little bit more sedate with a slightly older passenger demographic. Eleven cruises so far. Up next: Shhhh, it's a surprise! Followed by: Carnival Valor 10/30/05 CC Group And then: Carnival Spirit 12/10/05 Mexican Riviera Perhaps something else as well. Watch this space. Dance like it hurts, love like you need money, and work when somebody's watching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
