vecruiser2017 Posted December 15, 2017 #1 Share Posted December 15, 2017 Good afternoon. I'm a first-time sailor on the Jewel and am reading many unfavorable reviews. Is Norwegian privy to the reviews and are they working on making things better? I'm seeing major complaints about embarkation/customs, tepid and salty food, and very unfriendly/unprofessional ship staff. Would love feedback! Thank you.

Terry wichita Posted December 15, 2017 #2 Share Posted December 15, 2017 I’ll be trip before you. Second time on Jewel. My first Australia/NZ tour on NCL. As Jewel is fairly new to Australia (as is NCL) I anticipate a few adjustments to ship due to Summer and more Sea days is challange. Most complaints I have seen were really light and not a ship wide complaint. If past is guide I expect a wonderful cruise with good food and wines. I hope they use lots of Australian and New Zealand wines which I love, less California stuff. I take hamf the complaints I hear with grain of salt. I am low salt user and NCL will observe if you mention to waiter your need. Never had discourtious crew.... sometimes a little different as attitudes in downunder are not same as USA. Look for lite humor and hard work from crew. Hope I am right! Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casofilia Posted December 15, 2017 #3 Share Posted December 15, 2017 According to M&Gs NCL do monitor CC. We were on the Jewel for 30 days from Honolulu to Sydney. Brilliant cruise no real complaints!! You should have a wonderful cruise; enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiser123! Posted December 15, 2017 #4 Share Posted December 15, 2017 We took the Jewel on one of the Alaska legs. Loved Tsar's Palace. The staff was great and the views were wonderful. Not much by way of pool, but it was a nice ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
