Norwegian Dawn

You know, I saw some photos of the Norwegian Dawn, and it looks like a
really nice ship. And the fact that it departs from NYC is appealing.
However, I really wish they would do what Carnival has done with the
Legend and make it an 8-day sailing so it can visit warmer, more
exotic ports than Florida and Bahamas. I can't imagine that many
people sailing from NYC in January and heading only as far south as
the Bahamas.

Anybody feel the same way?

They've actually done one better...have a look at their 10 and 11 day
iteniaries out of NYC...they go to the southern caribbean.

I am with you on this. I would love to try the Norweigian Dawn. I love
sailing out of NY, but I hate the itin. no matter what time of year it is.

I agree with 100% Jo-Ann. I wouldn't want to do that itinerary even in the
summer.

You need to look a little deeper sweetheart.....a group that I cannot go
with this year is sailing on the Dawn on 1/4 for 11 nights and the cruise
goes clear to Grenada before it heads back...with NO stops in the Bahamas.

I dont know how many times this winter the Dawn does this itinerary, but I
think it is more than once. Last time I checked the only rooms that were
left on the 1/4 sailing were the super-suites that go for a gazillion $$$.

Anyone know the normal cruising speed of the Dawn? It must really boogie to
do that Southern Caribbean route in 11 days.

Oh yes!

I did the itinerary... and didn't really mind it that much.

I found a good snorkeling excursion in Nassau, and I LOVE Great Stirrup
Cay.

To me that's as good as an itinerary as most Western sailings that spend
to days in places like Jamaica and Labadee.

We're booked on the Dawn for Jan. 15.
10 days - going to Antigua, Dominica. San Juan, St Maarten St. Thomas.
Really need some sunshine after getting 20 " of snow here on LI.


We were originally booked on Rhapsody's Mardi Gras cruise in Feb. but
had to cancel. Sorry we won't get to meet you Jean & Sue. Maybe another
cruise.
