I've never been on NCL. I spotted a TA on one of their ships for £231 sole occ inside guarantee (a mattress in the engine room at that price maybe) on VivaVoyage (they charge a booking fe of £39 which needs to be added) last weekend. 11 nights from Miami to Barcelona, if I remember, right, depart 14 April or thereabouts. I'm happy with the deal I got on Weds with MSC.
I know it's difficult to say but would you still rate NCL if you weren't a regular with the benefits? Things I've read make them sound like they charge you to blow your nose once on board.0 -

Ive only myself been on an ncl ship once bcl999 so yet to benefit from the regular perks (but hope to in the near future).
Food wise we only ever went to one of the paid restaurants (steak house) once. Food was a bit nicer (food in restaurants good, buffet not so good but buffet do a good breakfast) but service was rubbish.
Drinks are expensive on board but if like me your not a big drinker just get a soda refill card it gets you unlimited soda drinks for something like $5 a day. You can also empty your mini bar and put your own drinks in there.
Apart from spending a few quid in the casino and on one of those pictures the ships photographer takes we didn't really spend anything else on board.
There is however a slight tendency to persuade you to spend more once on board but it isn't pushy or in your face.
Also watch out for the tips added to your on board account everyday....Most people are dumb enough to think thess have to be paid but they can be removed at the end of the crusie and you can tip individually. We even tipped our cleaners who made amazing animals out of our towels lol0 -

Actualy they have reduced the hard sell a lot, but the costs are no more than any other cruise line except those that include stuff.
The extras we get are speciality meal, laundry and cocktail parties, embarkation wine priority for some things and concierge.
Sometimes a bit more, the odd free drink from officers etc. if we are remembered but you get that on a lot of ships if you use them regulalry and are friendly to the staff.
We like the choices of eating and the freestyle dinning but that is available on most ships now.
Suite perks are very good but at a price.
The Jade is a very friendly ship and at these prices we get very good value for money.
I think we need to have a good look at MSC they are offering some great cruise prices.0 -
