debbiecooks123 Posted May 7, 2020 #3 Share Posted May 7, 2020 Bonni, what is the difference between the Joy and Encore? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bonniboo1 Posted May 7, 2020 #4 Share Posted May 7, 2020 Debbie I’m not totally sure as I haven’t been on either. I know that currently that the Encore has Choir if Man & Kinky Boots as entertainment. I forgot what the Joy has. You can go to the NCL site and pull up info on them both. I’m sure that the Joy is great. I believe that it was originally built for the Asian Market. I will be sailing on her the last week of June of 21 & 22. enjoy your cruise!

Joy has the Galaxy Pavillon in place of the Thermal Spa. Probably the biggest difference as they are more the same than different . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are the same class of ship (breakaway plus) with observation lounges. The Joy just underwent a $50M makeover to strip out the Asian decor and replace with boring American stuff. The Joy has 80 Concierge suites and no studios. The Encore has a bigger, faster race track. The restaurants and shops and bars are mostly the same. They have different Italian restaurants. The Joy does not have a Thermal Suite. The Encore does not have a Spice H20 sun deck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

happytotravel Posted May 8, 2020 #10 Share Posted May 8, 2020 (edited) Hi All, I just booked the Tampa/New York repositioning cruise for April 11, 2021 the other day. It's always so much fun deciding on a cruise and booking and planning for it. Hope all will have as much fun. Looking forward to this cruise as my May 30th Canada/New England isn't happening. Til then everyone stay safe and healthy! Blessings, happytotravel Edited May 8, 2020 by happytotravel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very excited to try a Jewel class ship, and the itinerary is awesome. We booked the Joy for January 10-17, 2021. Past-Guest cruise. I need 9 points for Platinum, and this cruise gives me 14. Will get me to Platinum for the Jade in April 🙂 Edited May 31, 2020 by kismet618 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
