Norwegian Cruise Line

Whenever Norwegian cruise passengers visit Great Stirrup Cay, they can't help but notice the colorful water slides at the neighboring Perfect Day at CocoCay. Well, Norwegian has had enough and is planning on building a six-acre waterpark that will rival Thrill Waterpark, giving Royal Caribbean guests their first sense of FOMO. 

The Great Tides Waterpark is scheduled to open in 2026 and will feature amenities for the whole family to enjoy, from a nearly 800-foot dynamic river to the industry's first cliffside jumps and a 9,000-square-foot splash zone for children. 

The next edition of the record-breaking Icon Class is on the horizon, just over one year after Royal Caribbean welcomed its largest cruise ship ever to its fleet. Star of the Seas will welcome paying passengers aboard on August 16, setting sail from Port Canaveral, Florida, to the Bahamas. 

There is an urgent search underway for a passenger traveling aboard a Norwegian cruise ship in Alaska who has gone missing. 

Local news outlets reported that Marites Buenafe, 62, of Kentucky, was last seen around 7:30am on Tuesday, July 1, as she disembarked Norwegian Bliss in Juneau. 

Would you fly across the world for a 2-night cruise? Most wouldn't even consider this, but I was excited to take on the challenge. 

I recently embarked on an unforgettable trip to Europe for a 2-night cruise with Norwegian Cruise Line. For just $99 per person, this cruise was dirt-cheap. Instead of spending thousands to fly to Europe during spring break, I decided to roll the dice and use my airline standby benefits.

Last year, the CDC inspected 151 ships as part of its Vessel Sanitation Program (VSP), which evaluates everything from food preparation to public pools and medical facilities. 

However, only a fraction received perfect scores. Among these, one line was the most consistent. Out of 30 perfect scores, Norwegian Cruise Line had 7 ships receive a flawless 100. 

Within the past week, three cruise ships have broken free from their secured moorings in port, disrupting thousands of passengers. 

The chaos started with Norwegian Epic on Friday, May 30. While visiting Catania, Sicily, a powerful wind gust struck the vessel's port side around 1:00pm. Consequently, the mooring lines began snapping one at a time. 

One cruise line is investing in making its private island even better. 

Norwegian Cruise Line broke ground on its $150 million project at Great Stirrup Cay in the Bahamas. Currently, guests have to tender ashore. However, the new development includes the construction of a pier that will allow two ships to dock. 

Norwegian Aqua, the newest ship from Norwegian Cruise Line, will arrive in the United States three days later than originally planned due to unfavorable weather conditions. To ensure the safety of guests and crew members, the ship’s disembarkation port has also been changed to avoid the severe weather along its original course.

Norwegian Cruise Line’s newest cruise ship, Norwegian Aqua, has officially set sail in Europe in a long-awaited debut. As the first vessel in Norwegian’s brand-new Prima Plus class, Norwegian Aqua incorporates modern luxury with bold innovation and boundary-pushing thrills.

Norwegian Aqua is a major evolution for the cruise line, featuring an enhanced design, cutting-edge amenities and one-of-a-kind onboard attractions. One of the ship’s standout features is the Aqua Slidecoaster, the world’s first hybrid rollercoaster and waterslide on a cruise ship.
