We sailed on the Jan 29th cruise and of my 34 cruises it was the worst. We still had a good time but there was a serious lack of staff on that sailing. And a lot of the staff were obviously not happy about it. There was a noticeable drop in food quality too vs my previous 7 NCL cruises and it was mostly in the specialty venues. The MDR on the 3 days we ate there was decent for NCL, O Sheehan's was pretty good too, but with some popular items gone. But of the 4 specialties we went to only the Teppanyaki was outstanding (worth the money) which was surprising because it's not a favorite of mine. The added cost was just not worth it for the other 3, La Bisto was a huge disappointment. The bar staff was slammed and the quality of the cocktails was soooo bad except in the Prime Meridian bar. Beer and wine was your best bet on that sailing especially at the outdoor bars. As for me, I'm not booking NCL again anytime soon. I can get better food, better service and better drinks for the same $$$ on other lines. Too bad, since 2108 I've sailed NCL 4 times and enjoyed them all except this one. Hoping it's a one off but hearing from friends on other sailings having similar experiences. Come on NCL get it together.
