Thanks so much. Wow this ship looks a lot nicer than I would’ve thought. We are booking a short Bahamas cruise on her. Looks like we will enjoy ourselves. Btw, your commentary to the other guests is hilarious. 🛳️
I was a crew member ...engine repairman...2006-2007.when she was Pride of Hawaii...She was still being built when i came onboard Feb 2006 in Papenburg Germany..
Great job guys! Very good HD video! Great overall tour. My husband says the video and audio were well balanced. We liked David's cameos throughout the video. Can't wait for the next one!
Great vlog there. Very, very helpful, interesting and with that hint of fun. Well done! We need more informative vlogs like this. Enjoyed every minute of it and little shots of David here, there and everywhere. Plus the addition of Ben being bi-lingual, where do your talents end? Well done again. Look forward to more. Mange tout Ben, Mange tout!!!!!
I was a crew member on this very ship when it was brand new and named "Pride of Hawaii." Thank you for the video, it brought back so many memories from 2006. You missed footage of Alizar and Papa's Italian Kitchen Restaurants. One day, I hope to return to this ship as a passenger. So wild this see these spaces again.
My first ever cruise was on-board this cruise ship. Wow how this ship has changed!! I will never forget it, I still remember what this ship looked like before this latest update to the ship.
yep my first cruise too. they had so much pink and magenta crushed velvet decor in one lounge including a double 'love' seat which we comandered a lot of the time. Glad theyve kept the comfy feet up chairs to relax on - albethem single now
So my only cruise was on the Norwegian Wind in July of 1999. We are scheduled for the Getaway in July 2019. So this ship - The Jade - reminds me of the Wind. Small and more intimate.
Thank you for the great video tour, I am going on the Jade in July, this video has been very helpful. We have been looking for one after the refurbished in April 2017. Great job well done!
9 years ago Norwegian Jade was my first cruise experience!! 2008, her first season in Europe!! She still keep those wonderful colours everywhere along the ship!! everything looks fresh, colourful, alive!! The only area I think got worst it's the pool area! No more slide for kids and too much space, quite empty actually! Anyway, I'd love too come back aboard to visit her still!! Btw, Great footage!! 👍😉
Great video! You were able to capture the coziness of the ship and something I find missing from some of the massive ships being built today. Thanks guys.
Thank you so much for this very informative video about the NCL Jade. My husband Grant Saunders is a stage Hypnotist and is performing at The Stardust Theatre in June & July 2017. Unfortunately I could not go with him got two fur baby's Elmo & Hercules (cats) to look after. At least I can watch this detailed video and see where he is staying & working that week his away. I have nearly watch all of your videos and subscribed. Keep up with the good work guys!!
We cruised on the Jade in the Med in 2013 (pre-refit). Thanks for a great video in-sight on what she's like now. Will definitely have to find a cruise on her again soon.
Thanks for this guys! You have the best cruise tours! I’m going on the NCL Jewel in March and think it will be pretty much like this after her redo. Happy Cruising!
You are both really funny. The narrative presentation is a nice change of pace. But David, when Ben is filming, try to not look like you are avoiding a stalker. I'm scheduled to go on Jade in November. I appreciate your video.
Thank you for your feedback and kind words! We're glad you enjoy our humor and narrative style. As for David's expressions, we'll try to work on that and make sure he doesn't look like he's avoiding a stalker next time. 😄 We hope you have an amazing time on your upcoming cruise on the Jade in November! It's a fantastic ship, and we're thrilled that our video could provide some helpful insights. Enjoy your cruise and safe travels! 🛳️🌟
Hi I'm assuming your wheels refer to wheelchair ?! I'm also a wheelchair user and would love to trying cruising .Will take a look on your site , as bit nervous about using my chair cruising or abroad .
Great video and report, guys. We've only been on the Epic before but Jade looks much brighter and has an Art Deco feel, which I love. We're thinking of going on the Jade next year on a TA and this has made it even more likely!
Another great video! I'm fairly certain this is a sister ship to the NCL Jewel, which I went on last year. I believe it is also scheduled for a refurbishment.
Great video tour, thanks! I couldn’t find much info on the Jade until seeing this. I booked one of the deck 8 aft “penthouse suites with large deck” for a Jan 2020 cruise out of Singapore. I didn’t see one mentioned in the video, how are they?
Thanks for this video. It helped us before we recently went on the same ship in December 2017. Here's our latest video for the same ship - ua-cam.com/video/KvZx-lS84c0/v-deo.html. Take a look and keep such good videos coming. They are super helpful.
Not only the slide, they changed everything in the pool area! Very much poor, no colour, too simple, too bored! Even the lamps as Palm Trees were removed! I've been on board in Sep 2008, just after, when she came from Hawaii to be based in Europe and was completely different! Also the ceiling on Aloha bar, the main area on the ship, is much more simple now! All the Ship was full of vibrant colours and tropical feeling! Now might be more modern and updated to European standards but sucks! Honestly sometimes I don't get these restyling's from the companies! Anyway, nice footage and review!
We just got off the Jade's 14 night cruise around the Caribbean and I can't warn people away from this cruise hard enough. Boring, poorly laid out, and the dining options are terrible.
Thanks so much. Wow this ship looks a lot nicer than I would’ve thought. We are booking a short Bahamas cruise on her. Looks like we will enjoy ourselves. Btw, your commentary to the other guests is hilarious. 🛳️
Thank You sailing the Jade in 2023, family cruise.
I was a crew member ...engine repairman...2006-2007.when she was Pride of Hawaii...She was still being built when i came onboard Feb 2006 in Papenburg Germany..
Excellent video guys. We are going on the Jade Oct 31. Can’t wait. Thanks
Great video, the best I've seen covering the Jade refit. I like the way they have refurbished her but retained some of the best original features.
Great job guys! Very good HD video! Great overall tour. My husband says the video and audio were well balanced. We liked David's cameos throughout the video. Can't wait for the next one!

Hey Alex. So happy we can bring back memories for you. We try and film as much as we can but time is very limited on our ship visits.
Our family sailed (for the first time) on the Jade in January. So many lovely changes made since then! Much more modern and attractive now.
My first ever cruise was on-board this cruise ship. Wow how this ship has changed!! I will never forget it, I still remember what this ship looked like before this latest update to the ship.
+DJ Wolve She has had a big change! We didn't see her before but she is looking great now. 👍 lovely little ship.

+JAMES FERNANDEZ thanks James! The extra space is so they can construct a stage area. She was a lovely ship.
great video. thanks for adding it.
Great video! You were able to capture the coziness of the ship and something I find missing from some of the massive ships being built today. Thanks guys.
Thank you for this great video, really informative. Also, was that Michael Palin????😆
I thought so too! In the section starting at 12:22.

Great video guys. We on Jade next week so this has been really useful.
Glad you guys did a video on the ship. I was curious about it. Thank you so much
Omg. Frank and I are going on the Jade in October for his 60th birthday.
Hi I'm assuming your wheels refer to wheelchair ?! I'm also a wheelchair user and would love to trying cruising .Will take a look on your site , as bit nervous about using my chair cruising or abroad .
Thank you! Going on this ship for the Panama canal cruise in November. This helped keep me excited!
Thank you for sharing this. We are booked in a few months and were glad to see all the updates and changes.
+Barbara Kelly You will have a amazing time Barbara, let us know what you think.
I have and always love your cruise shows. Thank you
Great as always , really enjoyed it and the ship looks idea for a fun romantic cruise !!
As ever, a high-quality video. Nicely done.
Great video and report, guys. We've only been on the Epic before but Jade looks much brighter and has an Art Deco feel, which I love. We're thinking of going on the Jade next year on a TA and this has made it even more likely!
Well, we've booked! Can't wait x
+Teresa de Billot ah so exited for you! She was a lovely ship and a great choice.
Excellent Video guys! Professionally done! Very Nice!
Thank you Roger.
It looks great! Thanks for doing this video.
Another great video! I'm fairly certain this is a sister ship to the NCL Jewel, which I went on last year. I believe it is also scheduled for a refurbishment.
Excellent video!!!! I’m going on the Jade in 3 weeks!!!!! Norway!!!!
Great Video with good Music! The Ship looks fantastic after the refurbishment. I subscribed to you.
+Kallis Shipworld thank you and welcome 😃
Thank you. We will set sail in 2019 and I cannot wait to see Greece and Italy
Looks like a very nice ship! Great video guys! Beth
+David Mauskopf thanks Beth!
Great Video! Love you guys
Great video you very well explain all the ship. Thanks for this is really helpful
brilliant informative video. so pleased they have long seats to relax and put your feet up. (i love your accents btw)
Looks a bit different from when we had our cruise on the Jade in 2015. wish we could go on another cruise on the Jade, Brilliant ship and crew.
Awesome review ❤️
I am going in April. Can’t wait!!!!
Great video, thanks!
I love the mini suite
Love this video!
Nice tour, very good camera work! What camera do you use?
Thanks, we use a Panasonic GH5!
Loving your videos. Would it be asking too much to point out the smoking section for us social pariahs?
Didnt show the accessible balcony room ?
I was just on this EXACT boat 9 months ago. Can you do a review of what you think of NCL as a cruise line, just like you did with RCL?
+Bradly C yes we will be doing that show soon!
Thank you
Are you guys platinum level, which is why you got to tour the ship?
+Bradly C No we were kindly invited by NCL to tour the ship!
You guys are hilarious.
Thanks, Morgan! :-D
thanks
Where r u guys? i miss your videos!
+Hi Justine Hietkamp we will be back this week with a video! It’s been a hectic few weeks!
The Brazilian restaurant is pronounced Chew-ras-ker- eeh-yah.
Did they get rid of the waterslide on the Jade?
Yes, they removed the waterslide. Our guide informed us it was removed so that they have space to construct a stage for chartered cruises.
Darn. There is a cruise next year on it that I wanted to take but now, I'm having second thoughts.
Great video tour, thanks! I couldn’t find much info on the Jade until seeing this. I booked one of the deck 8 aft “penthouse suites with large deck” for a Jan 2020 cruise out of Singapore. I didn’t see one mentioned in the video, how are they?
What happened to the slides?
We were told this ship has been refitted to host more charter cruises and the slides were removed so they can construct a stage if they need to. :-)
Is it a good? We're planning to get on it for a 14 nights cruise.
On a quest to watch all of the videos?
Nice
OMG they removed the slide!!!
Yes, they removed it so they had space to construct a stage on charter cruises.
Your voice should be louder than the background music
Churrascaria lol Brazilian steakhouse 😊😂
Thanks for this video. It helped us before we recently went on the same ship in December 2017. Here's our latest video for the same ship - ua-cam.com/video/KvZx-lS84c0/v-deo.html. Take a look and keep such good videos coming. They are super helpful.
Thank You and thanks for sharing your video. It looks like you had great weather, the sail out looks lovely.
The seas were rough so we felt the ship rocking but it did not affect us. We still had a great time.
Just saying when I went on this ship in 2008 I pushed the ice cream machine to the limit and got told off by the captain.........😂😂
my room was 5590
I like the way that people entering the Garden Café make a cursory effort at the hand cleaning machine... NOT!
Not only the slide, they changed everything in the pool area! Very much poor, no colour, too simple, too bored! Even the lamps as Palm Trees were removed!

Can't wait until 2026.
Why this terrible noise ?
Omg... too much orange red cool. Makes me too busy.. prefer cool and blue clours
We just got off the Jade's 14 night cruise around the Caribbean and I can't warn people away from this cruise hard enough. Boring, poorly laid out, and the dining options are terrible.
The smoking makes anywhere near aweful
