Norwegian Cruise Line (NCL), the innovator in global cruise travel with a 57-year history of breaking boundaries, revealed new fall and winter 2025/26 voyages.
Continuing the positive trend from recent years, the Company experienced strong sales in November as a result from the ongoing demand for cruising.
“Our guests have spoken! The solid number of bookings this past month is a positive indicator of what to expect early in the new year during wave season, when many of our guests typically book their cruises with us,” said David J. Herrera, president of Norwegian Cruise Line. “In recent years, we have begun to offer more diverse and longer itinerary options, and this positive momentum is a sure sign that our guests are delighted with our offerings and are looking forward to exploring the world with us. Our new 2025 and 2026 itineraries will bring them more of what they want and more opportunities to enjoy their ideal vacation visiting their dream destination aboard any NCL ship.”
NCL has an endless number of sailings for travelers to choose from as the Company sails to 450 destinations across the globe including exotic and port-rich itineraries in Africa, Asia, South America, the Caribbean and more. The voyages are thoughtfully curated to feature the most popular, and best-rated ports based on guest satisfaction and to introduce our guests to new hidden gems. NCL’s itineraries provide travelers with the ultimate cruising experience, allowing them to immerse themselves into each destination and wake up in a new fantastic location nearly every day.
The newly released season of sailings features several ships making their debut in new destinations, including Norwegian Sun visiting new ports in Asia for the first time, including Kyoto (Kobe), Japan; the all-new Norwegian Viva homeporting for the first time in Galveston, Texas for a series of Caribbean voyages; and much more.
Additional highlights from the new deployment include:
