We were on the "Dreamward" before she was lengthened and the name changed to Norwegian Dream. Lovely ship, nice cabins.

I was surprised to read that the passengers missing their upcoming cruises on this ship were being offered full refunds and a free cruise at a later time. Okay, fine. However, the surprise was that they offered
only a $300.00 credit toward a future cruise to the passengers who were on the ship at the time of the collision. I would have expected a much better offer to those people who had such a really frightening experience.
In fact, I'll bet that the offer will get better.

The $300.00 was offered to passengers of the cruises cancelled during repair. The passengers who were on board at the time now have to go through a lengthy process to gain "compensation" for the "danger and fear" they were put through. Figures stated over here in Britain are putting that figure at roughly
$75 million........

Ouch! that hurts as much as the smash!!"
