cosmo3667's review of NCL Cruises, Norwegian Star Alaska Cruise

“Overall, as a first time cruise on the Norwegian Star...”

★★★★☆

written by cosmo3667 on 09/07/2006

Good Points
Easy boarding and disembarkation.
Loved the fact that everyone had to sanitize their hands thoroughly before getting on the ship and before entering a restaurant, even if you were just passing through it.
The hot tubs and pools were refilled every day with fresh water, and the decks were power washed nightly.
Everyone on board was very friendly and helpful.

Bad Points
My luggage was not at my room as promised when I arrived, and I had to wait until 7pm before I could formally do anything about it. I eventually found the bag myself in the hall, quite away from my room. The NCL tag was clearly marked with my stateroom on it. You would think that after some 4 hours at sea that a staff member would look at the bag to question why it was still out in the hall. It would be quite obviously in the wrong area and delivered to its proper location.

General Comments
Overall, as a first time cruise on the Norwegian Star NCL cruise, we had the best vacation. the weather for the week that we were in Alaska was great, and the temperatures were normal with lots of sunshine.

I'm leaving July 30th out of Seattle on the Star. Any tips about places to eat on board, swimming, etc. I will have a 10 year old with me. Any tips on the onshore excursions?

<br/>Thanks...
