#costacruises #costasmeralda #costacruise #newcruiseship #maidenvoyage #cruise #cruising #cruiseship #lng #meyerwerftturku #greatbeltbridge #cruisegram #instacruise A new restaurant which is making its debut on Norwegian Encore is Onda by Scarpetta. The name means “wave” in Italian and NCL has teamed up with @scarpettarestaurants with the new restaurant being rolled out across the fleet and replacing NCL’s old Italian restaurant “La Cucina”.

#norwegianencore #norwegiancruiseline #cruisenorwegian #ncl #breakawayclass #breakawayplusclass #cruisegram #instacruise #cruiselife #cruiseshipphotographer #cruiseshipdining #presstrip The stunning Manhattan Room onboard Norwegian Encore. Looking at the stunning decor it’s hard to believe that this is actually the main dining room onboard and one of the complimentary restaurants. It can be found on deck 7 and it’s aft location afford great views of the wake as your sailing to your next destination. Cuisine ranges from Chinese to western. The only thing I found disappointing onboard was the lack of obvious vegan food, although the chef here was very helpful once he knew I was vegan.

Both Meraviglia class ships and the first Meraviglia-Plus class features venue which is located in the galleria’s onboard all the ships and since it’s debut onboard MSC Meraviglia has became a firm favourite with passengers.

#scarletlady #seatrials #makeshiphappen #epicseachange #newcruiseship #cruise #cruisegram #instacruise #fincantieri #shipyard #instacruise #imovie #imovieedit #iphonexsmax Stunning colour and reflections as you look through the Grand Atrium to the galleria Garandiosa on board MSC Grandiosa. The atriums on this class of ship are some of the most stunning  on any cruise ship. 
Do you like the atriums onboard the Meraviglia & plus  classes?
