Nicky Mouse Posted July 22, 2019 #76 Share Posted July 22, 2019 With this change it seems like a lot of weekend cruises have disappeared as well on NCL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at the August 29th sailing on the Sun. The sail away rate for ocean view is 499 and the rate that includes the two perks is 679. What am I getting for 179 more dollars? It doesn’t seem to make mathematical sense. At $679 you're really better off spending your money elsewhere. Just off the Sun this morning. We paid $349pp for Sail Away Interior and honestly without the open bar, it wouldn't have been worth it. We had a good time and were satisfied with what we received for what we paid. But entertainment and food are seriously lacking compared to other cruise ships. But we knew what we were getting into, so just set your expectations accordingly. I literally "laughed out loud" in the restaurant when we arrived. We were on for the first time in June of 2018 and I was shocked that the day 1 menu was IDENTICAL. I even referenced photos I had taken from last year to verify. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rate is still a bit high but considering it is Labor Day weekend and we were looking for something fun to do for the holiday it fit the bill. I have no expectation of high quality entertainment and such. I have done the Sky before so know what to expect on these short cruises. We will do Specialty dining each evening.

We will be on the same cruise, with the free airfare and with the great rate from the casino we popped for an aft suite. This will be our 3rd time on the Sun, did the Breakaway in May and not impressed. Sun is more our style..
