Norwegian Cruise Line announced on Tuesday it was cancelling all of its 2020 Alaska cruises.
In an email to travel agents, Norwegian cited both the impact of COVID-19, as well as port restrictions as why it was forced to cancel all of its Alaska cruises.
While we remained hopeful that we would resume our Seattle-based Norwegian Bliss and Norwegian Joy Alaska sailings in September 2020, today's suspension includes the following cruises.
Cancelled sailings include:
Norwegian Joy

- September 6, 2020
- September 13, 2020
- September 20, 2020

Guests who were booked on the cancelled cruises have the choice of:
- 125% Future Cruise Credit
- Future Cruise Credits will be issued by Thursday, July 2, and can be applied within a year of the date they are issued on any Norwegian sailing through December 31, 2022.
- 100% Refund
