Norwegian Cruise Line: Break away on a hip, innovative vacation

When it comes to breaking boundaries in the cruise industry, few companies do it better than Norwegian Cruise Line. Norwegian has been breaking the boundaries of traditional cruising for more than 55 years. Innovations are many, but one of the most notable was the introduction of Freestyle Cruising, which revolutionized the industry by allowing guests more freedom and flexibility. Kids on board Norwegian can attend Splash Academy or Circus as well as take part in many other family-friendly activities. 

Passengers can dress up or down. Get active or kick back. Take in some never-before-seen entertainment at sea and eat somewhere different every day of the week.

Norwegian plans to add a new ship each year from 2025 to 2028, starting with Norwegian Aqua, a Prime Plus class ship.
