So glad you enjoyed it. We try to do our ship tours as simply a ship tour. Our vlogs are the place where we do face shots and try to convey the experience of our cruise. We like to do the different formats so people can see the ship in the tours and get a feel for the cruise in our vlogs.
Just got home from a Mediterranean cruise on the Norwegian Epic...it was amazing...Greece, Malta, Italy. Shore excursions were fantastic and so good to return home to the ship and our cozy cabin...floating hotel. We also really enjoyed "Maltings" stopped there often on our way to dinner or a night cap before bed.
We really like the Manhattan room. Nice entertainment while having dinner. NCL once had 3 specialty dining with the cruise package. Now I believe it's only 2 with a higher cruise price tag.😒
We had 4 specialty dining nights. The Free at Sea gave us 2, and our agency had a deal that included 2 more! It was fun being able to try all of the restaurants
I'll be in a studio cabin on my Getaway cruise so FAS only gave me 1 Specialty dinner, but as a Platinum level I get 2 Specialty dinners as a perk. I just recently heard that my voucher will say 2 dinners for 2, so I will invite another Solo traveler to join me and use the other.
Food Republic is a La Carte, but a Specialty pkg can be used there and allows diners with a pkg to get 4 menu items which will be covered with one Specialty dinner in their account.
Food republic is part of the dining plan for the speciality restaurants, you get x amount of dishes in terms of dining package, so please update your information
Hard to believe the O'Sheehan's late night menu doesn't have Irish Stew, wrangler burger, loaded nachos and several other items that late night eaters would certainly enjoy!
Even with a line like that, it moves very quickly. That video was taken on the last day of the cruise. There was hardly ever a line aside from the final day.
@@SandySunTravel okay. But rarely when I was waiting in a line like that was it fast. Because so many people's problems aren't always fixable easily when they are last day billing issues.
I’m sure there were times when it was slow, but our experience on three or four occasions was pretty quick, and even on the last day they had crew members working the line to take care of the simple issues.
I went to tabinyaki on that same cruise and the guy who was cooking for us said to me, “Do you know where the chicken came from?” And I was like “no….-“ then he told me to go back to school 😭= 😂
We didn’t ask, but aside from the pool deck, it never felt overly crowded. The pool was likely overwhelmed because we didn’t have many sunny days on our cruise
EXCELLENT video and commentary. And thankfully, no selfies or face shots.
Professional quality.

Sounds like a great time!
Speedway takes up too much room. No wonder the pool area is mobbed. Thanks for the video. Going on the Encore in 4 more days!
Thank you for watching! Have fun on your cruise!
So true, if the Jewel class ships like the Pearl and the Jade can have 2 pools WTH NCL? Get 2 pools on the big ships!

It sounds like that lazer tag area might be going away and they may be expanding Cagney's restaurant in November 2024. Correct me if I'm wrong.
That is what we’re hearing, too
You can use a specialty dining credit at Food Republic.
We’ll have to try it next time
Food Republic is a La Carte, but a Specialty pkg can be used there and allows diners with a pkg to get 4 menu items which will be covered with one Specialty dinner in their account.
Would be nice if there were self served premixed drinks maybe with your card and a pin.

I wonder if O’Sheehans has a different menu than “The Local”
@@SandySunTravel it didn't. The Prima was the same menu at the Local as O'Sheehan's on Breakaway Getaway and Escape.
Fantastic content thank you
Glad you enjoyed it
Next cruise ship I'm on
It was a great time!
Is Food Republic complimentary?
No, but we’ve been told you can use a dining credit from your Free at Sea or More at Sea
Self service wine dispensers are not covered by any drink pkgs.
I guess you weren't looking at your own video when you said Guest Services was quick! There were about 30 people in line!

Ron, let me know when we can chat. Have questions about this ship.😊
Well done
Thank you
Did you walk through the casino?
We did
@@SandySunTravel ah yes, I remember the part about the glass smoker tank. LOL
I went to tabinyaki on that same cruise and the guy who was cooking for us said to me, “Do you know where the chicken came from?” And I was like “no….-“ then he told me to go back to school 😭= 😂
Also who went to the buffet and saw these people who were like “WaSHiE wAsHIe!!”
I Remember The Wasshie Wasshie Ppls 😂😂
@@carolynrogers3985 WASHIE WASHIE HAPPY HAPPY SMILEY SMILEY ENJOY YOUR LUNCH 😃
How many guests were onboard? Way too many around the pool.

Nice Video 😎👍💁🇩🇪
Thanks! 😃
