    I'v been on four transatlantic trips, enjoyed all of them, I have been on over 40 cruises, (former travel agent). I like to take it easy now, and no better way than a transatlantic cruise.

    I’ve always wanted to take a cruise across the Atlantic

    In November off on my 6th transatlantic cruise. The sea days are the best. One week? This can be done with Cunard which is a traditional ocean liner, very different from a cruise.

    We did a 12-day Transatlantic, from Miami to Barcelona, followed by SEVERAL B2Bs, totaling 47 days.
    It was the BEST experience, EVAH!!!
    We either had a Balcony, or a REAR-FACING Balcony, which DID make a difference... Movies-at-Sea, under fuzzy blankies, sipping drinks, eating popcorn, 🍿 while under the 🌙 and ✨, was a-FREAKING-mazing...
    I did NOT want to set foot on terra firma: I wanted to KEEP SAILING!
    ENJOY YOUR TRAVELS, FELLOW SAILORS: 🛳️🛫🗽🧳🎉🎶🥳💃🏿🎵🛳️🎒🍹🎤🛳️

    We took a Norwegian cruise from Lisbon to Florida last year . But we had stops in the Canaries, Azores, Bermuda and NYC along the way.
    You had a slow boat to China, and 11 straight days sounds too long at sea.

    Would like to hear from more people how a repositioning cruise compares to crossing the Atlantic on an ocean liner.

    I liked the Epic but, my partner didn't appreciate the sink at the foot of the bed.

    Friends said Epic’s food sucks. How’s the ocean? Rocky? Thanks!

    • @hayley_phillips
      @hayley_phillips 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thank you for watching! We found the food to be similar to some of the older vessels in NCL’s fleet, we always found tasty options! Our favorite food options with NCL have been on ships such as the Norwegian Encore, Norwegian Viva. However, even on older ships there is usually always something you can find that’ll you’ll enjoy!
      The ocean was rocky at times, especially at night when the ship would speed up. Overall the ship was not as rocky as I had anticipated! I would definitely recommend that prospective passengers bring either medication or items to combat motion sickness if they are susceptible.
      Thank you again for watching!

      Thank you for watching! The WiFi on this ship and itinerary was great! I used both my laptop for work and my phone everyday and never had any issues.

    I did not like the Epic because you cannot walk outside around the ship 💁

      I agree.

    No way! I hate sea days. There isn't enough to do on a ship nor activities to keep me entertained. Rooms are too small.

    11 cruises on, we can tell you the Epic was by far the worst ship.
