I have been on 8 NCL cruises and at one time NCL was my favorite cruise line. But since they started the Freestyle cruising I just do not like them any more mainly because of that. I had bad experiences with the freestyle dining where we were standing in line to get a dinner table. I also do not like the fact that you get a different waiter each and a different table. So then at the end of the cruise when you pay gratuities who does it go to? The tip for good service element is no longer there. The personal relationship you develop with the wait staff when you have them for the 7 days, or however long your crusie is, is lost. Then the informal nature of the formal nights I do not care for. On our last cruise they called it "dress up if you want to" night. And only about 20% of the people dressed up. Now if you have never cruised before and experienced the traditional type cruise, or if you are one who would just as soon wear jeans to dinner every evening then NCL will fit you fine. But if you have seen what the other ships offer and you like it then NCL is a step down. So that's why some people say do not go on NCL. I did not plan to go on them again but then I saw a cruise itinerary that I liked and could not find on any other line and so we went last October on the new Gem ship. Again we had problems. So we wil definately not use NCL again. Yes they did have the Wii on the Gem but it was available for only about 1 or 2 hours each day. That was not enough time for a ship with 2,000 plus people. I saw a demo one day but never had an opportunity to play because it was not available after we finished our tours each day. So as far as I was concerned it was a useless amenity, kinda like the 4 lane bowling alley that was way overpriced to use at $5.00 a game. See what I mean????
