I just cannot do the traditional dining thing after enjoying the freedoms of Freestyle Dining. Plus NCL has more dining options, yes even at a price we enjoy the options.

Your Friendly NCL Navigator, John If I don't know the answer I'm fairly certain I can find it.
A bad day at sea is better than a good day at work.

I voted "No Real Loyalty" because we haven't been on a NCL ship since the SS Norway ... which we did have the opportunity to enyoy many times.

Never cruised with NCL but plan to check them out soon.
People have lots of opinions about the NCL, I plan to find out by myself!
Trust me Lars, you will enjoy NCL as much as any other line as long as you go in with a good understanding of Freestyle. Especially the dining portion of Freestyle. When you do go ask any question you have and we will prepare you.

Its important to have an open mind when trying out "new" cruise lines. I hate comparing as not one is alike.
I will ask questions for sure ,but you already did a fantastic job answering questions at a thread called "Ncl, what do they do". It was started by yours truly more then a year ago.

Yes, Freestyle dining is great. We loved it!! We also found the food better than RCCL but then that's just us and a comparision at a certain time. Freestyle really does spoil you!!

I picked fairly loyal. We consider all lines when we decide to cruise. NCL has offered us the best price on almost all occasions. We love Freestyle dining. We still do dress up but it is nice to have the option.
NCL raised the bar again on our last cruise on the Spirit. We also love the NCL Suites and service. This is hard to beat as most other lines do not compare in this regard.
We were so happy to get back to Freestyle dining after tradtional dining the year before! We did not realize that we missed it that much until we returned to NCL!
