Guest Posted November 27, 2004 Report Share Posted November 27, 2004 I'm ready to book a cruise on NCL's Spirit. Not familiar with this line at all, but it sure looks nice! Anyone have some first hand experience that they can share? Thank you! Kris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shari2 Posted November 27, 2004 Report Share Posted November 27, 2004 Zeke11...Welcome aboard!! The only NCL ship that we have been on was the Norway, and that was back in the '80s, but we had a great time on her! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnG Posted November 28, 2004 Report Share Posted November 28, 2004 NCL owns both Norwegian Cruise Lines and Orient Cruise Lines. NCL Spirit was built for Orient as Superstar Leo. It had a very oriental atmosphere. After this past summer in Alaska, they shifted Superstar Leo from Orient to NCL and after a refurbishment they began alternating 5 and 9 day Caribbean cruises. The review I have seen have been good. She will be moving to year round cruising from New York in the fall of 2005. NCL originated "Freestyle" where there is never a dress code required, although there is an optional formal night, and you can eat in any of as many as 11 different restaurants onboard (all open seating) with 1-2 specialty restaurants with a small cover charge. Freestyle also allows you to leave your carryon's in the cabin the morning of departure while you eat instead of hauling them to breakfast, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
