When was norwegian sun built

Norwegian Cruise Line favorites remain, such as the ship's fun, relaxed atmosphere and action-packed days and nights, its can't-miss sunshine hull artwork and the clever way of reminding passengers which direction they're going in stateroom hallways: The fish on the carpet swim forward except of course, that one rebellious fish. Side note: Try the Rebellious Fish cocktail. Norwegian Cruise Line generally attracts a younger crowd and Sun's value means there are lots of passengers coming from nearby in the United States.

Known for being a family-friendly cruise line, there are younger families mixed with multigenerational travelers as well as some honeymooners and younger couples. As with all Norwegian ships, passengers enjoy the casual onboard ambience, so you'll find plenty of fun, relaxed cruise mates, many who are loyal to the line and have sailed multiple times.

Daytime: Norwegian's casual dress code is about as relaxed as you can get. By day, pool wear and resort casual are acceptable around the ship. Evening: At night, dress is "cruise casual," which means khakis, jeans, shorts, casual shirts and no tank tops for men and casual dresses, skirts, pants, capris, shorts, nice jeans and tops for women. In the evening, resort casual and shorts are allowed in all dining venues except Le Bistro and Seven Seas Restaurant.

Tank tops, flip-flops or baseball caps are not allowed anywhere. One night per cruise features the chance to take photos with the captain, so many passengers choose to go all-out in their fancy clothes, especially if they scored an invite to the captain's cocktail party. Others still prefer to keep it casual and stick with shorts by the pool, which is perfectly fine as well. There is no formal policy onboard.

Also, don't forget to pack you best whites for the White Hot Party, which is held every cruise. Not permitted: As far as dining dress guidelines, during the day as well as in the Garden Cafe for breakfast, lunch or dinner, passengers must wear cover-ups, shirts and footwear. Some restaurants also require a collared shirt and slacks shorts don't count.

Tank tops and baseball caps are also never permitted. Find a Cruise. Cruise Tips. Facebook Pinterest Twitter. See all photos. Editor Rating. Jodi Ornstein. Pros Refurbished spaces boast clean, modern design; a plethora of tasty dining options abounds. You should know: In many ways, Sun breaks away from Norwegian's party-ship image.

It could have really been a nice time if we chose another week. It did not start well when we saw that our luggage was compromised and water bottles and a bottle of wine were confiscated from our luggage. Smoking in the Casino was a big dissappointment giving us little to do while at sea during the day time, since the spring breakers took up the entire 11th floor pool deck. Read full review. This cruise ship is small with not a lot of things to do for children.

As I have no kids I loved it. The food was fantastic, the casino full of slots and tables, there were enough pool beds for everyone. I will definitely board the Norwegian Sun again. However with over 1, spingbreakers onboard we encountered many intoxicated young people who did not know how to handle themselves. For instance 1 passed out person laying on the floor in the atrium near guest services, people in only bikinis or swim trunks in public areas other than the pool.

They would sit on furniture and leave wet marks. NCL appeared not to consistently enforce the dress code for the public areas. View All Norwegian Sun Reviews. View all 25 Norwegian Sun professional photos. View all Norwegian Sun photos.

If you like sushi or Japanese dishes try the dinning room on deck Good price and good food. Be sure and visit deck 13 just once to get a wonderful view from the top, top deck. Take the train from the airport - quick, convenient and cheaper than shuttles or taxis. Moderno was a cool restaurant to visit, unique way of serving or offering "all the menu" as they would bring pieces to your table and you could say yes or decline the meat etc.

I've never done that anywhere before, and thought it was a nice way of sampling all the things on the menu! View All Norwegian Sun Tips.
