I would love to hear any reviews as well! We're going to be sailing to
Bermuda on the Dreamward the beginning of June! I can't wait!

| Haven't been on it but 2 weeks ago in St Thomas, she docked behind our
ship - the Regent Sun. One thing I will verify is she's a big mother.
Standing on the uppermost deck of the Regent Sun, I was looking up at
at least five decks above me on the Dreamward. Given that its an NCL
ship, I'm sure it will be great.

We're also booked on the Dreamward in June. This is our first cruise
on an NCL ship.
I'd also be interested in hearing from anyone who has sailed on the
Dreamward.

| 421.4 | Cruising aboard the Winward. | DECWET::KARMALI | | Fri Feb 12 1993 22:23 | 24 |
| I am planning on going on a 7-day Southern Carribean curise aboard the Windward
(sister ship of Dreamward). I was thinking of going on the Dec. 5 cruise.
Does anybody know how the whether is in December in Southern Carribean?
I was given two quotes and am confused about which one to pick:
1) Catagory 9 - $1029 with a guaranteed upgrade (White Travel).
2) Catagory 9 upgraded to Catagory 6 - $1249. (Cruise Center).
Choice 1 - you are not assigned a cabin until close to departure date
so it is possible to get a bad cabin location in catagory 9 but a
upgrade is possible. Or I can pick a catagory 9 room but no upgrade
for the same price.
Choice 2 - I get to choose cabin location in Catagory 6.
Also, is it a good idea to get insurance ? Its $65 per person.
Is the insurance cheaper through NCL or should I shop around ?
This will be a honeymoon cruise and our first cruise so I hope
we enjoy it.
Thanks in advance,
Sulaiman.

| 421.5 | Insurance is usually a ripoff | VINO::FLEMMING | Have XDELTA, will travel | Sun Feb 14 1993 06:54 | 7 |
| If you can find a copy, there was an excellent article in last Sunday's
NYT on insurance. In general, its not what it seems and I'd recommend
against it unless there is some reason to expect you might not be able
to make the cruise (poor health, etc.) but in any event, if you do
consider purchasing it, spend a lot of time finding out exactly what
you are getting. In most cases, if it comes from the cruise line, it
turns out to just be a waver of the cancellation charges.

| 421.7 | availability? | WEORG::ACKERMAN | DBS Tech Writer | Fri Feb 19 1993 13:33 | 7 |
| For those of you who have booked the Dreamward for Bermuda in June --
I'm considering taking this cruise in May. Did you book recently, or
far in advance, and did you have any trouble with availability?
We are waiting for some 2 for 1 coupons to arrive before we can book
and I"m hoping it's not booked up.

| 421.8 | We booked in August | SOLVIT::LEONE | | Tue Feb 23 1993 12:50 | 5 |

We booked back last August....back then there was no problem with
availability....I don't know about now.

| 421.9 | DREAMWARD | GRANPA::LBINGNEAR | LOIS BINGNEAR @DWO | Mon Jun 14 1993 15:59 | 10 |
| I just returned from a Cruise on the Dreamward to Bermuda (May 29 -
June 5) and it was absolutely FANTASTIC!!. It was my very first Cruise
and we enjoyed it so much that we are already planning our next Cruise.
There are so many Nice things to say about our trip that I don't know
where to begin. From the Waiters to the Cruise Director everything was
perfect. I could spend all day here giving Praise to our Cruise and
the DREAMWARD but I don't think my peers would appreciate it. So if
you would like further details either drop me a note to Lois Bingnear
@DWO or give me a call at DTN: 338-5599.

Me too!!! We just returned on the 12th!!! It was absolutely
WONDERFUL!! This was our second cruise on NCL and I can't say enough
about it. Even though the waters were rough on the way out, we still
had a great time! I even won the Aretha Franklin lip sync contest!
What a roit!
If you'd like more details drop me a note!

| 421.11 | Free Air from Boston | BRAT::FRANKLIN | | Wed Feb 23 1994 12:15 | 17 |
| I was at a travel seminar and I wanted to pass this information along to
those who usually fly out of Boston. NCL is offering a special promotion
for their 1994 New York to Bermuda cruises on The Dreamward. If you book by
3/15/94, the air is FREE from Boston to New York for the 1st and 2nd
passengers.
NCL has special rates for early bookings, which apply as 'cruise-only' and
airfare is an add-on charge. They offer free bus transportation from major
cities in the Northeast - however, as I mentioned above if the room is
booked by 3/15, they will give you air from Boston at no extra
charge for the 1st two passengers in a cabin. The free air does not apply
to 3rd & 4th passengers.
They are probably doing this because of the Boston to Bermuda cruises and
people in the Boston area do not have to worry about airfare.
