We got off the ship about 7:15 and are already driving and at the Mississippi state line. They began debarkation before it was announced.

How about you build a time machine and zap yourself back to Monday so you can take your own picture.

Norwegian employee, travel agent, or just a busy body. I haven’t figured out which one you are.

No it’s not an exaggeration that bar lines have been AT TIMES 10-15 deep. So unless you are here, you have no idea what you’re talking about. I’m wondering if we have some Norwegian employees downplaying negative comment on this forum. I’m sure you doubt the lost bag comment as well.

Yes! That’s the one…

ABSOLUTELY SPOT ON!! I wish I had read your review before we booked this excursion through Norwegian. We just did this today and we were SHOCKED when the tour guide told us we would be traveling in the van for 11/2 hours each way. We spent our entire time in Costa Maya waiting in a line, traveling on the bus, and floating down the river for about an hour. The river part was great. I could tell they were doing their best at the “restaurant” but it was very low quality and they charged us $20 for 3 glasses of approx 8oz of margarita. We were given 1 bottle of water and a glass of lemonade at lunch but that was it. You are gone six hours. Everyone was really hungry by the time we had “lunch”around 4:15. The other van on our excursion had three people who had their money stolen and credit cards rifled through. I would never do this excursion again.

Your haven cruise on Brreakaway looks amazing! However, we’re on the same cruise, non-haven, and it’s been one bad experience after another. Lost luggage, bar lines 10-15 deep, unfriendly bartenders, a late departure Sunday, a late arrival today shortening our shore excursion, and general overcrowding of all public spaces. I have also talked to several people who have family feeling under the weather with a stomach problem.

Yes, we are two days into our sailing.

We dropped off five pieces of luggage at the drop off in New Orleans and one piece was never delivered to our state rooms. Has anyone heard a success story on being united with their belongings? My daughter had all of her clothes and other essentials in the bag. Has anyone else noticed in their cruis contract that Norwegian only gives you $100 for a lost bag? No wonder there are no claim tickets for baggage.

What types of foods are on the MDR menu?

We’re sailing out of New Orleans on the Breakaway and would like to know where to dine after boarding and what the typical menu will look like. Thanks!

I can’t tell you how much I appreciate your thorough and thoughtful answer!

Good advice. I read on another thread that they would expect six people because it’s all about the money they would lose with 5 vs 6.

I’m trying to decide when to try and arrange our checkin time at the port in New Orleans.We have a party of five in three cabins, including a spry 90 year old birthday girl. We are unable to schedule our dining ahead of time because 1)The system won’t let us book for an odd number 2)All times other than 9:30 are unavailable. We would like to book dinner and shows when we board. Do we need to check in as early as possible to have our best chance of a normal dining time? I’m also concerned about the senior member of our party getting tired and not having access to the room if we board very early. Any advice you have as far as parking, dropping off bags and the whole port process would be appreciated!

I can’t believe there are EIGHT pages about a twelve dollar case of water.
