Donna, if I were you I would plan to stay the three nights prior to the cruise rather than after the cruise. This way you will not risk missing the ship if your flights have a problem and you are late getting into Honolulu. On our cruise our United flight out of LA had mechanical problems and was delayed 6 1/2 hrs. United had to fly another plane in from SF. Instead of arriving at 2:30 pm we arrived at 9:00 pm. We were flying up a day early. If we hadn't we would have missed the ship.Also to newmexiconita, I have cruised on the NCL Dream and now the Wind and I would rate all of the Carnival cruises (7) that we have taken as good or, especially in food and entertainment, better than both of these NCL cruises. Our group of eight were in agreement with this and most were more out spoken than I am. In fact several of our friends have written NCL to complain. The things that makes this cruise are Hawaii and the itinerary. I do plan to try another NCL cruise but not anytime soon.
