If you're like me and you want to read every available bit of information you can get your hands on before you set sail, please allow me to drop a TON of useful stuff into your lap! I saved the Ship Dailies from all five days of my cruise on the Norwegian Sky (Feb 13-18, 2019) that made port in Key West, Freeport, Great Stirrup Cay, and Nassau. I also took photos of some menus from the main dining rooms, a drink menu, a spa services list, and the excursions price list.

 

If you're looking for even more information, I wrote a pretty extensive review of the cruise, which you can check out here! I cover the general experience from the perspective of a first-time cruiser, with lots of photos of the ship and our excursions.

 

Right, let's get started!

 

The Dailies:

These get dropped off in your cabin every afternoon, so that you can decide what you want to do the following day. 

 

Day 1: Miami

Wine Menu:

This is not the entire thing. There is a more extensive menu, this was just a featured bit.

I hope that this has been helpful for some of you!! If there's other information that you're looking for but can't find, I'd love to know so I can gather useful stuff the next time I'm cruising Norwegian!

 

Cheers, everyone! Happy cruising!

Thanks! This is amazing. My kids' number 1 question as we look forward to our April 15 sailing is "Do they have an all-day self-serve soft-serve machine?" This feature was a big hit for them on DCL. 🍦 But I saw there was a Harry Potter trivia contest, so if that's part of our cruise they will be happy.

skfritz do you have any pictures of the refurbed staterooms?

 

I posted a photo of the inside stateroom we stayed in, in the review I wrote for this cruise. The link is in the second paragraph of this post if you want to check it out! There's also some pictures of the public areas of the ship that were refurbished.

Would you happen to have the menu for “The Local” Bar? Can’t remember what the former name was, but it’s my husband’s fav place for comfort food.

I'm so sorry, I don't! I just checked with the friend I cruised with, and he doesn't have it either, even though we definitely went a couple times in the evening (like 9pm and later). All I can remember is that they had Ruebens and chicken wings, which isn't really helpful at all, except that the barbecue chicken wings were pretty delicious.

Wow!  I can't tell you how helpful this is.  I have celiac disease and seeing what menu items are listed as gluten free (I recognize the symbol) in advance really helps!
