When I boarded Norwegian Encore in Seattle, I thought I knew what to expect, I’ve been cruising with Norwegian since I was 11 and have been on similar ships in the past, but there were still things about Encore that took me by surprise. If I had known these things pre-cruise, I’d have saved myself time and money.
This video is just one part of a series. Check out the other videos from this cruise here:

I’d also have saved myself some unnecessary steps if I knew about the carpet trick. Norwegian Encore is the largest ship in the Norwegian fleet, so it’s not surprising that sometimes I get lost. It can be hard to know which way is forward and which is back in the corridors because they mostly look the same. Norwegian Encore is over 300 metres long, the same as 23 buses lined up or 3 big bens on their side, so you don’t want to go the wrong way. In the past, I have been late to meeting friends just because I went back instead of forward or vice versa and ended up getting very lost.
Norwegian do have a solution to this and it lays below everybody's feet. Along the passenger corridors, the carpets have fish on them, and almost all of these fish are swimming forward. I say almost always because I can’t be sure that there isn’t one cheeky little fish that is going the other way. I took a cruise a little while ago on Norwegian Sun, and one red fish was going backwards. She’s a very independent little fish! I never saw any going the other way on Encore, but I didn’t walk along every single corridor of the ship, so I can’t say for sure, that would take ages.
Some of the newer Norwegian ships have triangles on the carpets that mean the same thing.

Hey Norwegian -- you won't find a better brand ambassador than Emma. If I can convince my wife to go on a cruise (she gets a little motion sickness), you can bet Norwegian will be at the top of my wish list because of Emma's enthusiasm for your ships, amenities, and service.
Awhh thank you so much!! ❤❤
Encore is definitely a great ship in the NCL fleet. The on-stage Choir of Man social starts around 20 minutes prior to the scheduled show start time. Arrive early if you are interested in that. Even if you don't want to drink a beer, you can still go up on stage and socialize. Taking selfies on the stage with the players is a unique cruise opportunity. The cast are rather sociable blokes and it's a nice way to meet them before the actual show begins.
Yessss! It'ssuch funny to me that they do that every cruise, what a fun job!! Thanks for watching 😀👏🏼
I did not know that. I am always running last minute. I'll try to commit getting their early. Sounds like fun.
I've been on the Encore two times, both times in Alaska. Thanks Emma for this great video that reminded me of the good times we had on the Encore.
Oooo so glad you enjoyed!! 🎉🎉
I love watching NCL videos, because they seem to have everything I dream of in a cruise. I'm a certified Disney Adult but NCL seems to look the nicest and closest at matching that energy. And when you guys have Emma making videos for you, my desire to book grows that much more determined! Keep the videos, and Emma, showing, and I'll be onboard before you know it!
You’d really love it Jonathan I know!! 😂😊❤
@@EmmaCruises Well if you ever need an extra guest for one of these cruises, you know, someday, feel free to beep me. 😂

Hi Emma! Thanks for this series!!
We've only sailed smaller ships around Alaska but definitely want to be able to sail a larger ship. love all the new technology on board; legit, cup holders in the theater is game-changing! hahaha. Also, we agree, so happy NCL included such an amazing promenade deck on the Encore!
NCL Encore is for sure on our list for our next Alaska adventure (i want to stand on a helipad!!!! LOL)!
Hahah!! I looooove cup holders in the theatre or my hand gets too cold 😂❤
Agreed!! The bow bit was pretty fabulous 🎉
Thanks so much Emma! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💜💜💜

I just booked a 21 day Panama canal cruise on Encore in October. Thanks for the ship preview. 😄
We can't wait to have you on board! 😃
In less than two months I’ll be on the Sun for a 10 night cruise to Alaska. It’s my first cruise with Norwegian. Fyi this is my second cruise. I’ve been on one before and it was on Princess.
Ooo Have a great time! 🥳🥳
Love the Local. We always go there for breakfast and then maybe for a snack late at night.
Yum! 🤤
The largest ship with the absolute worst smoking area of any in their fleet 😢
And Emma sent me
And I LOVED Choir of Man on the Escape 😊
These have been so fun to see! I'm so glad to see Emma and NCL working together. Looking forward to my own trip to Alaska in September with NCL!
Thanks lots!! ❤❤
According to Norwegian's website the Norwegian Epic at 4070 guests is bigger than the Encore's 3958. Norwegian Bliss is exactly the same size.
In terms of guests perhaps but I’m measuring size 😊❤ Thanks for watching 😀👏🏼
love you Emma..
You too!! Thanks for watching 😀👏🏼
I hide too!❤

What does $25 dining package supplement mean? We are going on our first cruise this October to Alaska on the Encore. We were looking at the menu's and prices of specialty restaurants and saw this listed under a few of the more expensive menu items.
I'm assuming it means this meal is only partially covered?
Also, should I buy more specialty dining on top of the 2 that came with the package or is the complimentary food good enough for 7 night cruise? Thank you.
The two dinners in Free at Sea offer should be sufficient. The Italian, Onda by Scarpetta, had the best filet mignon I’ve eaten. Le Bistro, French cuisine, is excellent, too. Other nights, the menus should offer choices to meet most cruisers tastes, be it in the Manhattan Room with its large windows, or Taste or Savor with their more intimate layout. Don’t forget to try The Local for nearly round the clock diner style food. That’s just scratching the surface.
Yesss that’s it, means you have to pay that much extra for those dishes. Hmm, I usually do 2 but I get 2 more with my loyalty perk. I’d be happy to just do the included as well though it’s all good!! 💖💖
@@lynnecornelison5903Thanks Lynne! ❤❤
I took the Encore to Alaska in August of 2023 and enjoyed the ship tremendously but the crowds and line ups in Juneau and Ketchikan were unbearable.
Ooo you went when lots of ships were in port I assume? That’s the problem with Alaska in summer, we were right at the start of the season so only shared with one other ship ❤🎉
Did you know that I saw the Norwegian Encore pass by the Norwegian Bliss, the first cruise I was on?
Thank you NCL I think I saw my comment on your community tab
We tried the NCL Getaway a couple of years ago, but we were not impressed with NCL. I doubt that we will try them again, especially with the quality of their cruise experience declining.
Oh man that’s a shame, Getaway is definitely in my top 5 ships ever out of the 65 cruises I’ve taken, loved her! ❤❤
Carnival paradise is doing longer cruise now
They are going to Jamaica now
Thanks for watching 😀👏🏼
The Promenade for outside seating and Observation Lounge to be inside are both great for seeing the beauty of the sea and mountains (same goes for her sister, Joy, in Canada).
So is Emma a NCL employee these days? Good for her for getting paid, but I’d love some clarity.
Nope, I’m not an employee of NCL or any cruise line. They hired me as a contractor I suppose (like an actor) to make content for them in Alaska for them to share here on this channel which is what you’re seeing. 😀❤️
I don’t think I could be any employee of any cruise line the amount of different lines I cruise with! 😂😂

I found the early videos from Emma Cruises about the NCL Encore recently and became excited by the detailed description. I like your new video with an exclusive tour and current information. 🛳️ 👍
Oh my that feels like a lifetime ago! Pre pandemic haha!! Thank you! 😁❤️
