Caribbean Cruises Included in the Promotion

Travelers looking for a tropical getaway have plenty of options through the Semi-Annual Sale. Norwegian Cruise Line continues to offer a wide selection of Caribbean itineraries departing from major U.S. homeports, including Miami, Port Canaveral (Orlando), Galveston, New York City, New Orleans, and Philadelphia.

Beginning in June 2027, the Norwegian Aqua will offer weeklong Eastern and Western Caribbean cruises from Miami and Port Canaveral. The upcoming Norwegian Luna will also feature seven-night Caribbean sailings from Florida, expanding the cruise line’s newest fleet offerings.

Guests sailing aboard the Norwegian Viva from Galveston can enjoy seven-day Western Caribbean voyages with visits to Cozumel and Costa Maya in Mexico, Roatan in Honduras, and Harvest Caye, Norwegian Cruise Line’s private island destination in Belize.

For travelers seeking shorter vacations, the Norwegian Getaway and Norwegian Joy continue to operate four- and five-day Bahamas cruises from Miami with stops in Nassau and Great Stirrup Cay.
