NORWEGIAN Cruise Line (NCL) has opened sales on a large range of new “wish-list worthy” sailings through to 2023.
The voyages travel to each continent, including Antarctica, with over 20 new destinations for the line.
Norwegian Star will become the first in the fleet to visit Fortaleza and Salvador de Bahia in Brazil, during a 15-day South America sailing departing from Rio de Janeiro, and will also make the brand’s debut in Greenland with calls to Nanortalik, Nuuk and Qaqortoq during two back-to-back northern European sailings from Reykjavik.
Star will also undertake her first voyage to Antarctica, when she sails from Buenos Aires for a season of 14-day journeys, sailing by Deception and Elephant Islands for the first time in NCL history, and visiting five ports of call across Argentina, Chile, the Falkland Islands and Uruguay.
Norwegian Jade will also offer an NCL first, as she embarks on a roundtrip sailing from Cape Town, visiting Durban, Luderitz and Walvis Bay, featuring overnights in Cape Town and Richards Bay.
Norwegian Sun will make her Asia debut, becoming the cruise line’s first ship to visit destinations such as Beppu, Coron, Himeji, Kampot, Kota Kinabalu, Manila, Melaka, Muara and Nagoya.
Despite the new cruises beginning in 2021, CEO Frank Del Rio expects NCL’s ships to sail later this year, he told CNBC.
We believe that together we’ll be able to demonstrate to the [Centers for Disease Control] and other government officials that cruising is indeed safe and not all cruise lines are created equal,” he added.
