Taking the lift is for wimps. The quickest way to descend 10 decks on new cruise ship Norwegian Prima is to wrap yourself in a shiny sack, stand inside a glass cylinder - and wait nervously for the floor to suddenly open.
After plummeting feet first, you’re sent sliding round a spiral tube before landing seconds later at the bottom of this white-knuckle helter-skelter, simply called The Drop.
It’s not the only thrill on this 20-deck ship –the first in a new class of six from Norwegian Cruise Line.
