Boarding a ship for your cruise is one of the best feelings! Everyone agree??
Absolutely!!
Darren Chichester Absolutely. Mostly because by the time you can board, you’ve been waiting for hours.
I MISS CRUISES
I was on my 10th cruise ship but my first norwegian since i only went on carnival and royal
I was on my first norwegian (Also The Breakaway :D) on October before corona and i knew about the encore when I was on it and me and my mom are cruise addicts and I was super excited to go on the encore and I dont think ive ever been without a cruise for over a year since i was like 6 :(
Yes
@@EECCTravels qq+is a good time to.
Jason haircut suit him well he looks so fresh 👌
The buffet on Norwegian looks so fresh with delicious food choices 😋😋😋
Jason, I love your new look! You look more handsome with shirt hair 💗
It's short too... - smirks -
I don’t know why I get so excited for these videos but...👀
YEEESSS!!! 😍😍😍💙💙💙
Also, “In-the-shade sun loungers “ = shade loungers 😎
I'm right there with you!
I agree 💯%😅😅
Me too 😎 💛
I vacation through cruise vlogs 😭 post more!!
I’m so excited to see these videos! The comment “Let’s see if Jason has a carb breakdown...” almost made me choke laughing! Hilarious 🤣 Great hair cut Jason.
And of course he did... there is always once on each cruise.
I watch your videos and get so excited!!! I CANT WAIT TO CRUISE AGAIN
Jason what happen to the ponytail ? you look so different and a lot younger looks great and suits you
Great vid as always... just love your videos. Nice haircut Jason. And Lisa.... you are SO adorable :)
Can't wait to board Encore in February.
It's always so exciting watching you guys boarding a new ship! The Encore looks amazing!
Wow I love Jason's hair! You guys are so awsome! My family and I are going on the Norweigan Epic in April 4th! Thank you for sharing this!!
With each video we get more excited to go on the Encore! Your videos have been great and can't wait for the next one. Now to top it off we are getting excited to see the videos from the cruise your on!
Ship looks amazing looking foward to the rest of the vlogs
Incredible vlog 🤞💯
Great tour! Thanks for sharing.❤️🙏🏻
Awesome! Can't wait for the next and the next!
Given the size of these ships and total number of passengers, they never looked super crowded; great tour as usual, I wouldn't expect anything less from you two!
Have to admit nothing like the first day and sitting in port just getting into relax mode. Great video as always...
Glad you shared this I’m going to make sure my next cruise is a Norwegian.
Love your videos. We are platinum on NCL. Leaving the Jan 1st to stay in the Haven. Yeah!
I was on the encore already this Month and I love it
Great Video as per usual! I sailed the Breakaway last month after watching your whole series... it was a huge help!
Thanks so much for your channel. Looking forward to Encore next.. I just hit Latitudes Gold. Woohoo!
Love the loungers in the shade! I also burn quickly, even with sunscreen. Can't wait for June 2021!
Your video brings so much laughter and smiles on my face even when I am having a bad day. Make me look forward to my vacation hopefully and Jason was so excited to being near his on secret way to get in the beer door lol and like the new hair cute and your wife looks beautiful then every.
Just discovered your channel, fun and actually entertaining reviews so I’m excited to watch!
Great video! Very informative and so professionally done.
I am loving Jason's hair cut. Looks AWESOME!!!!
Alyssa: I found my jam, right here.
Funny. Cracked me up.
how lucky you guys just got on a cruise right before covid:) thanks for the video, we are going to try encore this winter..
I just can’t wait for a cruise embarkation day to happen again! Until then I’m glad I have your adventures to enjoy
Fine! Very informative! Thanks!
Our cruise was going to be in 2020, then 2021, now we are booked on the Encore going to Alaska in 2022! Great video
Hello Alisa & Jason, I've been enjoying your videos after booking our cruise to Alaska on the Bliss for this Aug.... Today we found out NCL changed our cruise ship from the Bliss to Encore. We are very excited.. So now I'm watching your videos of the NCL Encore
Hi Jason and Elisa, ya'll are looking good enjoy your cruise
WIN!!! FOR ME....thank you both so much
I’ll be on this same ship a week from now with my daughter
Encore looks beautiful! I'm booked for Panama Canal on Encore January 2021. Vibe was $209 per person for 7 days on Breakaway last March. It was worth it, just for the quiet and no long bar lines, Cocktail waiters and fresh fruit and cool toiwels served with great seating. In my opinion, looks like Vibe on Encore is TOO BIG, will be too many people. I liked Vibe because of the limited amount of passes available to passengers. NCL JOY in 76 Days! WELOME ABOARD! Washy washy, happy happy, smiley smiley!
Love you guys!
I surprised my wife with the encore cruise in December for her bday. We both loved this ship. The crew was great. There desserts will kill any diet! Lol!
Nice job as always. My family of 5 are on the Encore in a Haven two bedroom Suite in May.
Great video!! Can’t wait to book our next Norwegian Cruise!! Waiting for them to run the ‘Free Airfare’ with the ‘Take All 5’ promotion again!! The Encore looks fabulous!!!!
Unfortunately the free and reduced air is gone and isn’t coming back in the foreseeable future except for Hawaii sailings... but the Free at Sea is available
EECC Travels Dang, really???? I didn’t know it was permanent. Boy, that stinks!!
Great video!
New subscriber here...finally! Beautiful ship and great video, thanks! (Jason, love the haircut!) Keep up the good work!💗
Yay! Glad you are with us!
I am so jealous watching this on Sunday night dreading starting another work week. Less than 80 days for my cruise on celebrity equinox.
I’m jealous like I wasn’t just enjoying that same Miami view last week on Norwegian Escape! Lol! Would love to try the Encore one day.
Beautiful! I am going RC for my first cruise but norwegian may be my next!
Can’t wait! We are on her in May!!!!
Awww this makes me so sad. We were supposed to be on the Encore right now. We booked Dec. 22-29 way back in a March of 2018, but had to cancel because hubby couldn’t guarantee that he would get the holiday time off from work.
I am soooo excited....we board the Encore in August for a 7 night Bermuda Cruise. NCL is normally who we sail with. The Free At Seas are a big reason why....that beverage package is huge for us.
OMGosh, I haven't watched a video in a while...somebody got a hair cut ! looks great!
Have fun!!👋😊🍸🚢
Yes, the Bliss has the double hot tubs just like the Encore. We used them on our inaugural Alaskan cruise in June 2018. It was the first week of the month, so I don’t think it was as cold as when you went. We were in the hot tub and then ran over to do the water slide (not the drop slide). Surprising, the water in the slide was warm and it felt warm in the tube. But when we were done, we ran back to the hot tub.
The Breakaway was our first Norwegian ship as well. And we stayed in the haven so we are hooked twice. We next did the Transatlantic of the Bliss and will be on the Encore in May and again November this year.
awesome. I will be on the NCL Bliss to Alaska in June. looking forward to it. Keep cruising!
Love the new hair!
Looking forward to more cruise vlogs
I can’t wait to try Norwegian!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Cakes by La’Meeka you’ll love it. My favorite line.
Whitney Castillo I have 3 cruises booked on Carnival for 2020 my husband will kill me if I book one more cruise (but its going to happened 😜)
@@Cakesbylameeka It's better to ask for forgiveness than permission 😉
Cakes by La’Meeka We’ve got one booked for 2020 as well 😁
I think I’ll look at an NCL for my bday in 2021 though 🤔😅
This ship looks good.
Reminds me when we boarded on the December 1st! I miss it! But I'll be back on a ship on January 4th to the Southern Caribbean!
Yay! Have fun!!
Hey. I know you are glad to be back on your cruise. I will be going on the Royal Caribbean cruise in February of next year. I will go on Norwegian in November of next year
Keep at it
That's really cool you're going to get to see all the cabin types! Is that a travel agent thing or anyone because it was the inaugural cruise? Merry Christmas to you all!
so many options at the buffet
Great video!
Not to nitpick, but there is one more difference between Garden Cafe on the Encore and other Breakaway class ships. The Breakaway, Getaway, and Escape has the Garden Cafe located aft instead of forward. On those ships the thermal suite is located forward.
Happy Cruising!
Yes that is true
Jason love the hair cut
Love NCL....
The food ....Best Buffet at sea...
I hope it doesnt change much after covid....
So excited to go on the Encore in September for 8 days! Since it is 2 4-day sailings I can enjoy Bermuda the first one and then spend the next sailing on the ship when everyone else is out exploring. If the Q-tip deck is part of Vibe that is no fun, now we do not have Miles and Miles or Q-tip. They are taking away our viewing space! Haha.
I really enjoy the background music you guys put in your videos. Is Jason behind this ! Love it
Yes he is and thank you! 👍
Great intro to Encore - was this a FAM trip basically? Jason looks so different with his hair cut - actually cuter! Hope you post more on the Encore.
Yes it was travel agents and media on this on for a preview of the ship. Jason is loving his hair short!
You just became more of a personal experience for a cruise just because you said “not the saints” when football was playing on the big screen. Who dat!
I’ve never cruised Norwegian. When I’m ready I’ll contact you for booking. We are 1 cruise away from Platinum on Carnival then I’ll be ready to try Norwegian. BTW we bought the shoes you recommended. And now we have several pair. They are great!
You bet! It seems like it is taking us forever to get Platinum with Carnival... but we will get there too. And yes those shoes are great!
Was on at the same time!
I got stuck in that slide! LoL and i don't even know why LoL Bliss does have dual hot tubs :-)
Hey guys. Me and my girlfriend love your channel! We're embarking on our first cruise, we're sailing the getaway in little more than a month out of New Orleans. We have a question. We purchased priority access boarding! What time should we get to the terminal? We fly in the day before, but in the morning we want to do somethings around new orleans before we head to the terminal. We depart at 4PM, and we don't want to spend all day waiting at the terminal. We wanted to get there as close to priority boarding time as possible! Thank you! Keep up the great work!!
Praying for y’all Alisa and Jason! Praying for the boys as well and everyone else in Alexandria! Lots of love and hugs from our family here in Tennessee
They need to fix those slides if they plan to keep them in use. People getting stuck on them is just ridiculous. I for one would probably get stuck as I am only 113 pounds right now. So now I don’t even think I want to try it when I get on the Bliss 😢
We are trying the Norwegian Dawn for the first time in March for 12 days. We have been on mostly Royal and Carnival. I wanted to try one of the bigger, new ships but they are all short itineraries with the same old ports. I wish they had some more choices on those ships because the ship looks so much nicer than the smaller ships. I guess they are catering to the masses.There is only so many times that we can go to Nassau and Cozumel without wanting to switch it up.We also live in Canada so we need at least a 10 day to make the cost of the flight and pre-hotel worth it.
Hi. Ask anyone who has sailed the Dawn and they will all likely say... I/WE LOVE THAT SHIP! Hope you have a great cruise. I think it’s the perfect ship. Bigger isn’t always better. LOL.
I have heard great things about Dawn! The Bliss, Joy and Encore have Panama Canal sailings as they move from one coast to the other for Alaska and the Getaway has Transatlantic for Europe if those itineraries would be of interest.
@@EECCTravels , yes thanks. The transatlantic maybe. We are booked on a Panama Canal cruise out of Galveston with carnival in Jan 2010.
I have a cruise booked on Carnival Horizon next year but the next one after that is going to be one of these Norwegian ships.
I enjoyed the Horizon my husband and I went in October.... and I'm going back in January.... I only got to enjoy half of the ship hadn't had knee revision surgery yet☺
I want to try while they have such good rates to the bahamas, I like being on the ship more than the destination
Hey, I'm looking for the video of where you guys got on the ship like Rock-stars.. You went in though the Crew deck and watched the others get off the ship....
It was the boarding of the Breakaway, that was pretty epic!
We went to Miami in February one yr and it was warm. Ppl where saying it was cold tho.
Can't wait till May till I sail on Encore to Bermuda
How do you guys go on SO many cruises? Seems like every time you turn around y’all are on another cruise.
Bob Wieters Travel agents get to try new Ships for free, I believe.🤔
This one was a TA preview and sometimes I get discounts on sailings but most we pay for like anyone else. I just work two jobs for my cruise addiction 😀
...gotta cruise it is just something ya gotta do...and as often as you can find the next cruise deal too...
Usually any deposit made onboard has many merits and 2 years to use...I think...catch a last minute cruise if your near a cruise port....
How about them Ravens 😜🖤💜🤘🏻
NCL must have changed their pizza because this is the second time you guys have raved about the pizza. My experience with NCL buffet pizza was it was not good at all. They must have changed things over the years
Love your channel !!thank you for the work you both do. March 1,2020 feels like a lifetime away
Symphony of the seas cruise as well🥺
Looks like the RCCL Ovation.
You need to go on The Norwegian Jade
I recently had VIBE access on Breakaway and it was like being on a small yacht! AMAZING and made some great new friends that I would see every day of the cruise. Seriously The main pool scene on that ship is a Sh#tShow !
Seeing here on video, I’m not sure if I’m digging the huge VIBE on Encore with the same bar set up but 3 times the seating.
Is Anyone here able to share their experiences after having experienced Encore- both sizes?
It seems they’ve taken away a significant amount of public space to enlarge an area that you have to pay extra for.....not sure how I feel about that😐
I know what you mean...
So they charge extra for access to different parts of the ship? Kinda on the fence about that.
They do. But we never use those areas so it’s ok for us.
EECC Travels Definitely good to know. Thanks for the info. Cheers
I LOVED the Breakaway. How would you compare Encore to Breakaway? One of my favorite parts of the Breakaway was SpiceH20 on deck 16. I spent most of my outside time there. Is there something comparable on the Encore?
Well, yes and no. There is a nice deck but it is part of Vibe so there is a charge for it.
Jennifer Barry Escape is better then Breakaway and I will let you know in two weeks if Bliss is better then Escape cause I’m sailing Bliss New Years! Living in NYC, Breakaway was our best friend for 5 years but they keep designing them better and better. If you loved Breakaway, you’re going to really love Escape and Bliss and probably Encore. Escape and Bliss have a spice but Encore does not. Escape has a spice almost identical to breakaway except it has a Grado water fixture. Bliss spice has a stage instead of a huge screen since the huge screen is now on the pool deck. Encore April 2020!
might do this on nov 27 to dec 4 2022
My husband and i woke up at 1:00am and had an impromtu room service pizza party wednesday morning on the Getaway
Oh nice!!
- takes a break from studying for finals -
Oh... Lets see what EECC Travels has in store for us today...
How was parking at the NCL Miami dock? Everyone seems to park at their hotels or other lots but we are driving down from Palm Beach county and want to park at the dock. Christmas Cruise 2021 to Cozumel and Harvest Caye….81 days to go!
We have always flown when cruising from Maimi so I can’t really tell you…
Is there a pool in the Vibe area
Please do a celebrity edge cruise
Vibe on Encore is $209 for the week. Worth it I think.
Alisa what backpack do you use? Do you have a link for it?
Its a B&B backpack! We love ours!!
