First Time on Norwegain Spirit

[twinss]

My husband and I will go on the Spirit for our second cruise. Our first cruise was on Carnival and we had a blast. I am concerned though, about the fact that the ship was made for Asians and its accommodations are a bit smaller than other vessels (ie chairs, beds, tables are smaller than we are accustomed to). My husband and I are "full-figured" people and this concerns me a bit. Does anyone have any comments on this?

No problems. While some furniture is slightly smaller, there's huge Asians too. Have you ever seen a summo wrestler?

 

It's not the furniture is that much smaller, they're just slightly shorter.

The beds, by the way, are full sized. The rooms aren't that much smaller either.

Rest assured, you will not encounter any problems due to your size. We sailed on the Spirit in Sept (to Alaska.) You will love everything about this ship. The bathrooms are so much better than the other ships that I have been on. The glass door on the shower is so much better than the clingy curtains on other ships! Our inside cabin had plenty of storage for a seven night cruise. Enjoy your trip. Sassy

I don't think you'll have a problem. We found the cabins on NCL to be a little smaller than the ones on Carnival as a general rule, but the beds were normal sized, and the bathrooms on the Spirit are much better sized than average (especially the shower).
