Wife and I, plus two boys (15-17). Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Steve,
I took a September Hawaii cruise on the Wind. If you have not already done so, you might want to check the detailed review at our main CruiseReviews site.

If you have any more questions after reading the review, I will be more than happy to answer them.

Steve - I haven't taken her to Hawaii, but I took the Wind to the Western Caribbean last Thanksgiving.

Small tips - (1) the service and atmosphere in the Four Seasons dining room is much better than the Terrace (2) check expiration dates on items in the buffet if available, I had a yogurt for breakfast that was almost a year past its date (3) store your suitcases under the beds, they are just high enough (4) go to the workout room at off-peak times because it is very small and usually full.

I had a great time on this ship even though it does show wear and tear. The service is good and Norwegian has great adventurous shore excursions - I suggest booking them before you leave for the cruise to avoid the long lines and many sell out quickly.

We are doing the Wind in September - - does anyone know if there are laundry/ironing facilities for the guests? I don't mean the ship laundry, I mean laundry rooms like we had on HAL and Carnival.

susanmaz - these services were not available when we were on the Wind in November, 2003. We just made sure to hang up everything to prevent wrinkles, brought wrinkle remover spray and a small package of laundry detergent (make sure you put these items in a plastic bag because our wrinkle remover bottle leaked). We did some laudry in the bathroom sink and it worked great.
