Love my butler Posted July 2, 2018 #26 Share Posted July 2, 2018 this is your opinion, others have opinions also, you are not wrong in your opinion as others aren't wrong in theirs - I have had a completely different experience then some I have seen you describe, that does not make me a NCL Cheerleader just someone who has a different experience Incorrect. My comment was based on facts, not my opinion. There is a difference unless you are wearing rose colored cheer leading glasses..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zubee23 Posted July 2, 2018 #27 Share Posted July 2, 2018 “Twizy” from Current - wasn’t sure what that was. Googled it - it’s a tiny electric rental vehicle! Looks like so much fun! https://www.currentvehicles.com/ Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winters in NZ Posted July 2, 2018 #28 Share Posted July 2, 2018 Once we were in NCL's control, things worked like a charm. Nashna...I thoroughly enjoyed your review of the Dawn, as you looked at both the positive and negative elements of your cruise. You presented an extremely well-detailed presentation of so many aspects of the cruise beginning with the moment of your arrival at the Mass Port parking facility. We are considering a Quebec City cruise to either Boston or NYC, so your insight is greatly appreciated. We have also taken a variety of cruises, but only twice aboard NCL. Thank you for such a superb review ! Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pieshops Posted July 2, 2018 #29 Share Posted July 2, 2018 Incorrect. My comment was based on facts, not my opinion. There is a difference unless you are wearing rose colored cheer leading glasses..... There is not one thing you have ever posted that others have not had the exact opposite experience. While yours may have been fact at the time for you it is not the be all end all of facts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowysmom Posted July 2, 2018 #30 Share Posted July 2, 2018 Thank you for your review of the Dawn. We went in 2013 and had a good time. We are going again next month. After reading your review I am really looking forward to the cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hladygirl Posted July 2, 2018 #31 Share Posted July 2, 2018 We have sailed the Dawn too many times to count. Love sailing from Boston. The Dawn has been wonderful every time. No real complaints. The Gem is now coming to Boston and I am glad just to have a change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two Wheels Only Posted July 3, 2018 #33 Share Posted July 3, 2018 totally agree. In fact almost all the NCL ships have small balconies but at least they are big enough for the 2 chairs and a small table.I guess that is all we really need. If you want a large balcony on a BA/BA Plus class NCL ship (large enough for a lounger), it can easily be done....if you book the right stateroom. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All you have to do is see them from your balcony while in port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fallujahkid Posted July 4, 2018 #37 Share Posted July 4, 2018 When you have 10 percent of the population needing a GF diet, it makes sense to have the products on hand for every sailing. The blueberry muffins were frozen. The bread tasted like it was frozen. It's not like we were expecting the pastry chef to whip up special bread options just for him. They could easily be frozen to make it convenient for the cruise line. Other mass market cruise lines offer many more GF options. 10 percent need gluten free diet? We are just putty in Madison Avenue’s hands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Love my butler Posted July 4, 2018 #38 Share Posted July 4, 2018 so you think you are the only one with your experience and no one has any other experience? Wow, quite the ego. You know the saying "opinions are like .......... everyone has one" I think you are conflating opinions with facts intentionally to continue your tirade or are indeed very ignorant. Either way, you are not a very credible poster. That's what I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cairn Mom Posted July 5, 2018 #41 Share Posted July 5, 2018 We’re taking out first NCL on the Sky to Cuba. We were really nervous based on our reading but your review made us feel better. I hope we also pleasantly surprised. Thx for writing, Nashna Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nashna Posted July 6, 2018 Author #42 Share Posted July 6, 2018 10 percent need gluten free diet? We are just putty in Madison Avenue’s hands. My husband was hospitalized with total kidney failure. Once he was diagnosed with celiac disease and he stopped eating wheat,rye and barley, he immediately improved. A Gluten free diet saved his life. Perhaps this might be a fad diet for some, it was a life saver for him. Those statistics come from medical researchers...not Madison Avenue.

Perhaps this might be a fad diet for some, it was a life saver for him. Those statistics come from medical researchers...not Madison Avenue. The doctor put my daughter on a gluten free diet when she was four years old. The next year, we celebrated her fifth birthday aboard the Gem. We had called ahead to inform them of her diet, and they were ready. When we came back from our shore excursion, there was a gluten-free birthday cake waiting in our room, just for her. I know that for some, it's a fad, but I appreciate that the fad has introduced the need to be vigilant about the dietary needs of people who will truly get sick if they eat the wrong thing. NCL has been wonderful in that regard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
