A troll is someone who generally suddenly appears in a newsgroup and
makes a strong sometimes obnoxious disagreeable statement merely for
the sake of getting responses ...

The only thing about your posting that is troll-like was your suddenly
appearing here ... So post more ... then you'll be totally untrollish
...

I'm sorry that you had a bad experience on the Freestyle in Hawaii ...
I wish you'd not get turned off by it as I feel that Hawaii has many
special cases ...newly American flagged vessel ... port intensive
...smaller speciality in demand restauants ... So I see many coming on
back to the ship at the same time and ready to eat at the same time in
the same place ... with a crew that is not as service oriented as on
other ships ...

We've had great freestyle dining experiences on the Sea,Sky,Spirit,Sun,
Dawn (did I miss a ship ??) and hope to on the Crown in Sept. ... So I
am inclined to believe the problem rests with the location and ship ...
rather than a fault with NCL itself ...

I'm trying to recreate our last trip ... on the Dawn last year ... but
we had specialty restauants 3 times ... at 7,6,9 and main dining at
times from 5:30 to 8 ... 4 of us total ... never had to wait ... only
that 9 PM at the Italian restaurant was a problem getting ... we did
use concierge to get it ... Cheapskates that we are ... specialty on
the first night is generally 2 for 1 ... and make a 7 pm reservation
sometime after the welcome aboard lunch ... when we know when we wish
to eat next ...
