Rare ohioNCLcruiser Posted February 16, 2009 #2 Share Posted February 16, 2009 NCL only has the 7 day Hawaii cruises. Some other lines have the 14 day round trip cruises to Hawaii from the west coast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dukegirl5577 Posted February 16, 2009 #3 Share Posted February 16, 2009 Were you only planning to be in Hawaii for 7 days total? If so, perhaps that's what the person meant. Many people find the flight to Hawaii to be long enough and expensive enough that they want to take as much advantage of being in Hawaii as possible and fly in a few days before the cruise (and stay at a hotel) and then stay for a few days afterwards. But the cruise itself is just 14 days, unless you go on a different line. The other lines offer longer roundtrip cruises leaving from the West Coast. NCL's begins and ends in Hawaii.

Darc Or perhaps they were suggesting you spend a week on the cruise around the islands, and another week staying on one or two islands to get to know them better? It's such a long way to fly, and generally requires a fairly expensive air ticket, that I'd think two weeks (if that works for you) would be a great idea!

mikaula Posted February 16, 2009 #5 Share Posted February 16, 2009 Or you could do the cruise twice and be gone for a full 14 day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheannb Posted February 16, 2009 #6 Share Posted February 16, 2009 Princess offers the 14 day Hawiaan cruise round trip out of LA. When we went it was 15 days but they since shortened to 14. 5 days to get there 5 days on the islands and 5 days to get back. That was such a relaxing and great cruise.

odblnt Posted February 17, 2009 #7 Share Posted February 17, 2009 The thing about the 14 day cruises out of the West Coast is that they don't normally stop at all of the islands like the 7 day NCL ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
janetz Posted February 17, 2009 #8 Share Posted February 17, 2009 There is a thread about 14 days cruises over on the Princess board...:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louise45 Posted February 19, 2009 #9 Share Posted February 19, 2009 I seen the longer cruises others offered but I thought what a waste! With all those days at sea I could be on land enjoying an island instead! We are flying in 4 days ahead of our NCL Hawaiian cruise to check out Oahu. With all I have planned I need 4 more!
