Which cruise line do you think is most similar to Norwegian? Here are the choices in alphabetical order:

 

Carnival Cruise Line

Celebrity Cruises

Costa Cruises

Holland America Line

MSC Cruises

P&O Cruises

Princess Cruises

Royal Caribbean Int'l

 

I have similar polls over in the Royal Caribbean & Carnival forums about which cruise line they think is most similar to them. The results of those polls are interesting!

Renaissance was similar, other than the much smaller ships. Anytime dining only, casual attire always, excellent value for the cost, two specialty restaurants vs. only one main dining room, varied itineraries, passengers interested in ports, not pretentiousness. Alas, no more.

Azamara, Oceania are similar but smaller and bit more upscale. They are open seating, alternative dining venues but little entertainment and fewer dining options.

 

Take care,

This is just a rude comment. But, consider the source.

I agree. Although I have not sailed with them, everything I read and hear makes me believe they would be quite similar.

i really miss renaissance, certainly the non-smoking and no one under 16. But it was similar without the big shows. R4 is now the Tahitian Princess and I will be on her again one of these days.

Hmmm... I didn't expect to see people compare Norwegian to really small cruise lines! :eek: How do they compare to NCL?

With out a doubt... carnival "all a carte"!
