I'll say it takes a lot to shock me these days, but wow! I find this shocking! -
Everything.. Norwegian Aqua / Prima class #3
OrangeCatRamblers replied to Steff79's topic in Norwegian Cruise Line
NY to Bermuda? Take my money! 😂 Can't wait. Prima is my favorite ship after many years of cruising. High hopes and very excited. -
I loved the Vibe on the Prima, it's a very beautiful space. If you're fine with the cost, go for it.

We kept nothing in the suitcases. Effectively there are 3 storage "bays," 1 for each of us, my husband and I took each side of the closet, and my son left his stuff in a jumbled heap on the open shelf to the left of the closet. We kept all of our shoes in an Ikea bag in an open shelf to the left of the closet. Plenty of places for towels. There are 4 metal hooks on the wall to the left of the bathroom door. I had absolutely zero issues with storage space. We probably had 12 pairs of shoes and multiple bulky hoodies/vests/puffer coats, too. I'm 5'4" and did have trouble with the hangers that you can't take off. They are definitely not made with shorties in mind, but I guess you could stand on the vanity stool 😂 -
They were a group of four 50 somethings. They cut in front of 3 of us getting pizza. You may not have seen yet the focaccia pizza on the Prima, they are more of an oblong shape. They just piled it on plates. I say sussed all the time but I lived in the UK in my twenties and a lot of vernacular stuck. I say knackered, too.

Additionally, if NCL and any new ship suddenly has a new mechanism for pre ordering at the buffet, that's something to discuss here and figure out what best practices are. If it's possible to order pizza ahead of time, then it would be possible to order an omelet as well, and we should all know and understand why people would be cutting to the front of the omelet line at any given time. Of course as we've all sussed out, this group was most likely posturing and full of it, as there is no written policy that I can find for pre ordering buffet pizza.

"We ordered ahead" was told to me as they moved to the front of everyone in line to take pizza. It was told to all of us waiting. Your tone is very patronizing, I don't appreciate this paternalistic take. I have every right to ask any questions I'd like about policy and practice, and to me, this is no different than registering annoyance at chair hogs or people who lounge barefoot on furniture in the Observation Lounge. You think this is silly, fine, move on. I'm sure you gripe about things that I'd think are silly as well. If more food will be there soon enough, including their "order," shouldn't they have been the ones to wait?

Thank you for helping me distil this in my mind. I think this is the crux of my issue. IF this group had pre ordered pizza (through some method not known to most of us), they should have waited until their order was ready. They should not have cut in and taken all the pizza that was out, by saying "Guess our order isn't ready yet, so we will just take all that is here." That's truly the issue. They should have waited, they should have not pre emptively depleted.
