Sunshine101 Posted November 14, 2013 #1 Share Posted November 14, 2013 Hi all, Has anyone done a Christmas cruise? We've never done one over Xmas and will be on the Epic during that time (in St.Thomas on Xmas day!) Is there'd anything different on the ship, like decorations or Xmas dinner or is it the same as any other week? Thanks for your input! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reggie28 Posted November 14, 2013 #2 Share Posted November 14, 2013 We were on the Epic for Christmas last year. It was fantastic! The ship is beautifully decorated and the MDRs definitely offered traditional Christmas dinner options. The beach in St. Maarten (on Christmas Day) had Christmas trees scattered among the loungers. The Christmas Eve concert/performance put on by the NCL crew was excellent! I hope you enjoy your Christmas on the Epic as much as we did. (We will be on the Pearl this year!)
