What can I say about this ship that hasn't already been said? It's not for everyone due to it's…read moresmall size. We weren't in love with our suite experience. With that said, it was the excellent service received and the itinerary that won us over. First of all, I'm not sure how anyone can really judge NCL strictly from one sailing on the 2nd to the oldest ship in the fleet. Yes, it's even older than the Norwegian Epic. Ha! Our expectations were low from the day we booked this cruise. That may be why we have a totally different perspective. We've seen the best that NCL has to offer (The Haven), and now we've seen the lower end of the spectrum for suite guests. It was a good experience despite the size and age of the ship. At the same time, I can see why people love it or hate it. I'll start with the negative and end with the positive. I hated the Northern Crown Suite's (9201) master bath. I think I'm just spoiled by the newer bathroom setups on other NCL ships. It was clean, but very cramped and outdated. It wasn't picture worthy. There was also a musty smell coming from the shower drain. Thankfully, the L'Occitane products made it all disappear while in use. On a brighter note, the shower pressure was outstanding. Yay! The hot tub on the balcony is also old & outdated. It looks more like a jacuzzi bathtub. You might want to book the 8th deck counterpart that has a larger hot tub. In all fairness, we didn't get to use it. The weather was unseasonably cold for the month of May in Northernn Europe. It just took up a lot of space on a balcony that's already crowded with outdoor furniture. Honestly though, it was probably one of the nicer rooms on the ship. The rest of the room was very comfortable and somewhat spacious. We slept very well and that's really all that matters. Having a separate half bath by the entrance was a nice perk as well. I'm giving this ship a 4-star review for other things that made this cruise so special. Our Concierge, Cabin Attendant, & Butler were all amazing. I hope to see them all again on other NCL ships in the near future. This ship will be transitioning to Cordelia Cruises towards the end of the year. I think the Sky will be missed. There aren't many cruise ships left of this size in the fleet. I love the conveniences that smaller ships have to offer. It was so easy disembarking at port of calls even without priority. I think we only had about 1200 passengers onboard. The elevators were rarely full. The stairs are easily accessed because you're only utilizing 8 decks. The ship's size is also ideal for navigating through rivers such as the Thames and the Elbe. It was the first time we've ever heard the 3 warning blasts from a cruise ship. The sailboats in front of us scattered quickly away after they heard it. How's that for excitement? I absolutely love the jogging/walking track on Deck 6. It was like being transported back into another time. There are mirrors on each corner as you make your way to the back of the ship. They were very useful in peeking around the inside corners to prevent people from accidentally running into others coming from the opposite direction. We used this track a lot while at sea. It was fun! Also, the fitness area was very well equipped with beautiful sea views. It was just another alternative when it was too cold and windy on deck. The food was pretty average. We dined in the MDR for the first time. It was better than expected. The buffet was just okay. We liked the crepes station the best. The specialty dining was average as well. I think the Sugarcane Mojito Bar probably wowed us the most. The newer Prima Class ships don't have this bar. So, I'm ending again on another high note. TL;DR - Would I book a cruise on a ship of this size again? Well, it depends on the itinerary. I must admit that Norwegian Sky looks kind of cute wearing a lei on her hull. She was once named the "Pride of Aloha" during her heyday in Hawaii. Her crew loves her. I could tell by the many conversations we had with each one that we encountered during our week long cruise. We can totally see why she's won the hearts of many after finally experiencing it for ourselves. Hopefully others will get an even better experience when she's the Cordelia Sky.

We were a group of 10 college friends and spouses in town to celebrate an anniversary. We went out for the afternoon on a 55' Azimut flybridge sport yacht and spent the afternoon cruising the beautiful waters around Miami and Miami Beach. Captain Carl was a seasoned veteran and took all the right steps to make this a wonderful day for our group. The ship also included a steward who took care of serving food and drinks and seeing to it that everyone was comfortable. We were in excellent hands with this crew! All the upfront arrangements were quick and easy and and everything came through exactly as promised. I definitely recommend Deanne, Captain Carl and crew and The Charter Agency. This was my second outing with them. I was a guest the first time and was excited about coming back to book my own cruise. I will happily use them again. Thanks Deanne!

I contacted Captain Matt about chartering a boat (or 2) for a bachelor party. He was incredibly…read moreresponsive and flexible and willing to work with me on price and timing. We had a bachelor party of 8 people and he suggested chartering two 4-person fishing vessels and having an open seas fishing competition. Payment and booking were handled quickly and professionally. He informed me that the boats can be catered, or we could provide our own food/beer. He still provided water and soda. Once the group split up we got right to it. Unfortunately one of the boats had a mechanical problem and had to come back to the dock where we quickly switched to another boat. While this is mildly frustrating, there the boat crew handled it well and apologized profusely. Once on the water, the crews on both boats gave solid lessons on what types of lines we were using, how deep the casting lines went, and advice on how to best secure a catch. The entire crew also offered interesting tidbits about the types/temperature/depth of waters that we were fishing in. Since we were all novice fisherman, the crew was very patient. All of the boats were clean and the inside area was air-conditioned and spacious enough for 4-5 people. The groom to be was very happy about the experience and Captain Matt and the rest of the crew were very fun to work with. I highly recommend this as a regular or bachelor party activity (be sure to take Dramamine the night before as the seas gets rough)

The Fort Lauderdale Int. Airport is one of my favorites to fly in and out of. On a recent vacation,…read moreI found this airport very easy to navigate from the parking garage to the gates. The garage parking is reasonably priced for long term parking and when crowded, the cement walkway from the garage is very easy to navigate by following the painted lines on the ground. Once inside the building terminal, the signage is very good and it is comfortable from the carpeted floors to the temperature of the a/c. There is the option of TSA, TSA-PRE, and, CLEAR lines to get through security. Once on the "other side", there are some private airline clubs, public sitting areas, and plenty of restaurants and bars to wait for the flight. Upon arrival, the directions are very clear on where to go for baggage claim, parking garage, and ride sharing locations. Exiting the airport is a little confusing as the lanes merge and drop off pretty quickly and the signage can come up very quickly for the east bound exit and the ramps for I595 westbound. To me this is an average sized airport that has convenient domestic and International flights.
