Prima will have thermal spa and vibe beach club if that is something you are looking for your sea days. I have sailed to Bermuda during the first week of May. While beautiful, the water was too cold for me to swim in. We did a nice catamaran excursion, I just didn't opt for the snorkeling. Joy has the observation lounge which is really nice, but its not really a scenic cruise.But you will get warmer temps with warmer sea water.

We have our air for our cruise with NCL for our trip next year. Since it's a big trip, we want to do the allotted 2 days before and after. I'm hoping this will help.

Check out the Moxy hotels (part of the Marriott family). I live in Philly and go up to NYC for an overnight occasionally. There are several locations in the city, they are clean, affordable(under $200/night during Christmas), and stylish. Highly recommend.

our itinerary does not. we will do a few days before and after.

The 17th from Reykjavik to Southampton

I just finished paying off our Prima cruise for next August and can't wait. We got a decent deal for the spa balcony, airfare, transfers, and triple points. Iceland and Norway are bucket list destinations, so I was determined and gave up sailing this year to pay for this.

This has been an enjoyable read. 😳 to every post with the "I want to break free" ncl commercial running in the back of my head.

I'm so glad I read this. Almost forgot about my desire to see puffins when we visit next year. We may just catch the tail end of is arriving August 15 and stopping in Reykjavik, Isafjoror, and Akureyri.

I went in mid-May. The weather was gorgeous, but that water was too cold for me!

Awesome!!! Glad to hear the positive thoughts on Iceland. Although on the Prima, can't wait for our Reykjavik to Southampton cruise for next year!

Fantastic shots!

Good grief. Glad I don't drink.
