DesertSailor,

Thanks for the info.

Too late to switch -- our docs arrived yesterday and we are fully paid!

I am looking at the ship as transportation to Bermuda -- anything more will be great!

Lots of NCL devotees deny that there are any wait times in line for food areas. Biggest problem with freestyle -- service erratic since you have new wait staff at every meal. We experienced this on both the N. Sun and N. Sea.

Two advantages of N. Crown -- larger cabins and less passengers. We visited N. Dawn when she made her debut in NYC. Mostly travel agents were there checking her out. Cabins are small with very little storage space -- newer style luggage will not fit under beds. Space was taken away from the cabin area to enlarge the bathroom area. Main dining rooms are very small considering amout of passengers. For these reasons, we cancelled our reservations on N. Dawn and stayed with N. Crown. Originally, we were booked on both ships back to back with entirely different ports. For some reason, N. Crown was more expensive than the N. Dawn.

Will let you know how our voyage turns out.
