Safety and Security

Norwegian Cruise Line visits a large number of ports in numerous countries around the world. At any given moment there are likely to be "trouble spots" in the world in terms of crime and/or war or terrorist actions. Accordingly, it may be necessary to change the published cruise or shore excursion itinerary. Any such changes are for your safety and beyond Norwegian Cruise Line's control. While Norwegian Cruise Line endeavors to provide reasonable protection for your comfort and safety on board its ships, Norwegian Cruise Line cannot guarantee freedom from all risks associated with war, terrorism, crime or other potential sources of harm. Norwegian Cruise Line reminds all passengers that they must ultimately assume responsibility for their actions while ashore. The U.S. Department of State and other similar government agencies regularly issue advisories and warnings to travelers giving details of local conditions in specified cities and countries according to the agency's perception of risks to travelers. Norwegian Cruise Line strongly recommends that passengers and their travel professionals obtain and consider such information when making travel decisions.

Final Boarding Time Policy

Arrival at the Cruise Terminal
For your comfort and convenience, we recommend that guests arrive at the cruise terminal no earlier than one (1) hour prior to the scheduled embarkation time printed on your cruise documents. Because of security regulations, guests may not be allowed to enter the cruise terminal prior to the scheduled embarkation time and may want to avoid waiting in potentially inclement weather as the waiting area outside and inside the cruise terminal may be limited.

Final Boarding Time
In order to facilitate the embarkation process and the processing of your e docs, guests are requested to complete the online Advance Guest Registration form as soon as possible. To comply with new government regulations governing departure manifest, all guests are required to complete the Advance Guest Registration prior to day of sailing and must complete check-in at the cruise terminal and be onboard the ship no later than one hour prior to the departure time noted on their cruise documents or they will not be permitted to sail. Any late arriving guest may join the ship at an approved port of call in the scheduled itinerary. Such guest will be responsible for all applicable fees and travel expenses to that subsequent port of call.

Boarding Time in Ports of Call
In all ports of call, it is also the guest's responsibility to be back onboard the ship no later than one (1) hour prior to the ship's scheduled departure time. Please be aware that shipboard time may differ from the port of call and it is the guest's responsibility to follow the shipboard time. In the event a guest misses the ship, it will be the guest's responsibility to pay all expenses incurred to rejoin the ship.

Airline Policies & Restrictions

Terms are governed by the individual air carrier ticket contract and NCL's Guest Ticket Contract. NCL reserves the right to choose the air carrier, routing, and airport from each place of departure (generally within a 60-mile radius). With the Interactive Air Program, NCL will provide options for a flight itinerary based on the available carrier airline routing options and the guest’s preferred departing and returning gateway. Guests will be able to select their preferred flights with a $250.00 USD non-refundable deposit if reserved outside of the final payment period via flexible fares, in addition to the required deposit for the cruise. Guests will have access to current available flight pricing via restriced fares (allowing no changes and required payment in full at time of booking). The different options and fares are marked accordingly. If your reservation includes a Restricted Air flight, a full non-refundable* payment is due at time of booking. Full payment for the total reservation invoice is required if flights are reserved within the final payment period. Also, NCL reserves the right to substitute commuter service and/or charter air service for scheduled air carriers without prior notice. All terms and conditions governing NCL's Air Sea Program and the air transportation arranged by NCL will equally apply to such chartered air service. Under the Air promotion, flight schedules may not, in some cases, be the most direct, and connections, layovers and involuntary overnights in route may be necessary depending on the departure city and final destination. The cost of such overnight arrangements (food, lodging, transfers and items of a personal nature) will be the passengers' responsibility. Actual flight schedules, fare basis and applicable rules cannot be committed until airline tickets are issued. Airline tickets are issued on fares that are capacity controlled and highly restrictive. These airline tickets may not be reissued or exchanged for another carrier or routing. Airfares include all fees, surcharges, and government taxes. Under the Interactive Air Program, the selected guest flight itinerary will be booked immediately, but may not be ticketed until 30 days prior to sailing.

Seat Assignments & Special Air Service Requests

NCL cannot confirm seat assignments. For seat assignment requests, please contact the airline directly upon receiving your flight confirmation. Once seats are booked or purchased directly with the airline, NCL cannot provide a refund, adjust, or amend those seat requests. Special meals, addition of frequent flyer number or other types of ancillary services related to your airline record must be made directly with the airline carrier. Please note, the policy applies to guests booking the Air promotion and the Interactive Air Program.

Baggage fees:

Airline imposed personal charges such as baggage fees may apply and are not included with your NCL Air booking.

Name changes or corrections

All guests must provide their complete legal name exactly as it appears on their required government-issued travel documentation at the time of booking. If your full legal name(s) does not reflect correctly on your cruise or flight confirmation, please contact Norwegian Cruise Line at 1-800-327-7030 or your travel advisor immediately.

Failure to provide your correct complete legal name prior to final payment will result in a non-refundable change fee of $150.00 USD. Flights booked without your complete legal name exactly as it appears on your required travel documentation may result in denial of boarding by the airline. In addition, failure to provide your correct complete legal name at the time of booking may result in new ticket issuance, in which guests will be subject to current air pricing and responsible for potentially higher airfare.

Shore excursions

If you have received your flight confirmation and you are booking a post-cruise shore excursion, this excursion must end at least three hours prior to your flight departure time. Otherwise, your excursion may be canceled due to the flight departure time conflict. If the excursion must be canceled, a full refund for the fare paid will be issued. We apologize in advance if there is a subsequent schedule change by the airline that may cause a cancelation to your excursion.

Guests who prefer customized air arrangements should contact the Premium Air Service Desk at 1-866-625-1163 up to 4 days prior to sailing. These include requests such as specific airline carriers, routings, upgrades, or adding a specific stopover.

Under the Interactive Air Program, guests who prefer to change their previously booked class of service or would like to request an additional stop-over from what was originally booked will result in a loss of the $250 deposit for the Interactive Air flight. A new deposit will be required to change their booking and ticket guests on their preferred flight options as new tickets will need to be issued for bookings made with flexible fares. If your reservation includes a Restricted fare, a full non-refundable* payment is due at time of booking. Flight deviations within the Interactive Air program may be requested up to 4 days prior to sailing, but may result in a loss of the $250 deposit if changing a previously booked flight under the program as previously stated. Cancellation of a Restricted Air flight at any time will incur a cancellation charge equivalent to the full cost of the flight. Additional fees, charges and taxes related to air transportation imposed by U.S. and/or foreign governmental or quasi-governmental authorities including passenger and airport facility charges, air departure taxes, foreign airport taxes, customs/immigration/security fees, airport service charges and inspection fees may be applicable. Please note, customization is not combinable with our Air promotion and is not available after tickets are issued.

 

Schedule changes after tickets have been issued

All air itinerary changes are the responsibility of the airline and are beyond the control of NCL. However, any air itinerary schedule change initiated by the airline more than 72 hours prior to your travel date will be managed by the NCL Air team. A schedule change communication containing your new flight information will be sent to the email on file. If there are delays, cancelations, or any schedule changes within 72 hours of your departure time, or during your travels, you will need to work directly with the airline for re-accommodations. These changes are beyond the control of NCL. It is important that you reconfirm your flight times within 72 to 24 hours of departure on the airline website to ensure no changes have been made. Please note, the policy applies to guests booking under the Air promotion and the Interactive Air Program.

Flight Assistance While Traveling En-Route (Pre and Post Cruise)

In the event that your flight is changed or cancelled by the airline due to mechanical, inclement weather, strikes or any other involuntary reason, you should immediately advise an airline representative at the airport that you are a guest of Norwegian Cruise Line, and you are on your way to join a cruise. In most circumstances, the airline can arrange alternative flights at the airline counter, so you can get to the ship or the hotel destination. Please notify NCL through the "Flight Assistance Hotline" (contact numbers below) as soon as possible if a delay or cancellation. Please provide the agent with the new flight information, if applicable. Please note that air tickets cover flights from and to the vessel. Failure to travel on the outbound flight may resolve in automatic cancellation of the return flight.

When you visit, request information from, or book a cruise with us on our websites or applications (the "Online Services"), we may use cookies and other device identifying technologies ("Cookies") to provide our Online Services, to understand how our Online Services are used and for advertising purposes as explained in our Privacy Policy. You can read more about the types of Cookies we use, why we use them and how you can exercise your Cookies choices below.

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are text files that contain small amounts of information downloaded to your device when you visit a website. Cookies are then sent back to the issuing website or another website that recognizes the Cookie on each subsequent visit. Cookies are helpful because they allow a web page to recognize a user's device.

Cookies perform a variety of tasks, such as allowing you to navigate efficiently between pages, remembering your preferences, and generally improving the user experience. Cookies and tracking technologies may also be used to help to ensure that our web content, emails and advertising better suit you and your interests.

Cookies can either be served directly by us or served on our behalf, for example by advertisers and data analytics companies.

Cookies can endure for different periods of time, including those that last only as long as your browser is open (referred to as “session cookies” or “temporary cookies”). These are deleted automatically once you close your browser. Other Cookies are “permanent cookies”, meaning that they survive after your browser is closed. For example, they recognize your device when you open your browser and browse the internet again.

Which Cookies Do We Use and Why Do We Use Them?

The Cookies that we use to provide our services can be divided into the following categories:

  1. Essential Cookies: These Cookies are necessary for the website to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually only set in response to actions made by you which amount to a request for services, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in or filling in forms. You may be able to set your browser to block or alert you about these Cookies, but without these Cookies certain services will not be available. These Cookies do not store any personally identifiable information.
  2. Performance Cookies: These Cookies allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of our site. They help us to know which pages are the most and least popular and see how visitors move around the site. These Cookies do not collect information that personally identifies a visitor. All information collected by these Cookies is aggregated and therefore anonymous. If you do not allow these Cookies we will not know when you have visited our site and will not be able to monitor its performance.
  3. Functional Cookies: These Cookies allow our websites to save choices you make (such as your username, language or country you live in) and provide enhanced, more personalized features. These Cookies can also be used to save changes you make to the text size, font, or other parts of the web page that you can customize. They can also be used to provide services that you have asked for, such as watching a video or commenting on a blog. The information collected by these Cookies can be anonymized and cannot track your browsing behavior on other websites. If you do not allow these Cookies, some or all of these services may not function properly.
  4. Advertising Cookies: These Cookies are used to provide advertisements that better suit you and your interests or to enable you to interact with our social media presence and share our content with your friends and networks. They are also used to limit the number of circuits of an advertisement and to measure the effectiveness of the advertising campaign. These Cookies may track your browser across other sites and may be used by us and other companies to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant content and advertisements on other sites.

    They are usually placed with the permission of the website operator of advertising networks and may be set through our site by our advertising partners and social media services. The fact that you have visited a certain web page is shared with other organizations such as advertisers. If you do not allow these Cookies, you will experience less targeted advertising and you may not be able to use or see any social media sharing tools.

Analytics / Log Filed

As is true of most websites, we gather certain information automatically and store it in log files. This information may include Internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, operating system, date/time stamp, and/or clickstream data.

We may combine this automatically collected log information with other information we collect about you. We do this to improve services we offer you, or to improve marketing, analytics, or site functionality.

We use mobile analytics software to allow us to better understand the performance of our websites. This software may record information such as how often you use our websites, the events that occur within our websites, aggregated usage, and performance data.

Behavioral Targeting

We partner with third parties to manage our advertising on other sites. Our third-party partners may use technologies such as Cookies to gather information about your activities on our websites and other sites in order to provide you advertising based upon your browsing activities and interests. You may be able to use an industry tool to limit use of your information for the purposes of serving interest-based ads by participating third parties by clicking here (or if located in the European Union click here). Please note this tool does not opt you out of being served ads (you will continue to receive generic ads) or from the use of your information for serving interest-based ads by third parties that do not participate in the industry tool. The effectiveness of the industry tool might also be limited if your browser is configured to block third party cookies.

Flight Assistance Hotline

While Traveling En-Route

Let's face it, sometimes unforeseen things happen; bad weather, delayed flights and even cancellations. If your flight is changed or a weather-related delay leaves you stuck, don't panic. The first thing you should do is immediately advise an airline representative at the airport that you are a guest of Norwegian Cruise Line, and you are on your way to join our cruise ship. Usually, they can arrange alternative flights at the airline counter, so you can get to your ship or hotel package destination.

After you learn your new flight arrangements, please contact NCL's "Flight Assistance Hotline" at 1-800-456-7179, as soon as possible, with your new flight. The call is toll-free and our representatives are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Please note: This special number is operational only in the United States and Canada. Outside of the U.S. and Canada you may reach us at 1-305-468-2029 and we accept collect calls.

Important: The above numbers are for emergency use only for unforeseen delays. If you have any other questions, please contact your travel professional. NCL is not responsible for any airline delays.

Guest Conduct Policy

It’s your vacation and you should have the freedom to choose how you spend it. That’s Freestyle Cruising® on Norwegian Cruise Line. Dress up or down. Sleep in or catch a sunrise from your own private balcony. Take in some never-before-seen entertainment at sea. Even eat somewhere different every day, on your own schedule. Whether you’re on board or on shore, you can do as much or as little as you please. It’s all up to you.

Although Freestyle Cruising offers you plenty of freedom and flexibility, it is important that all our guests have a common understanding of the expected behavioral standards while on board our ships. This Guest Conduct Policy is intended to ensure that all guests enjoy their cruise experience while following our code of conduct throughout their vacation. Whether you are transferring to and from ships, are inside the terminal, exploring on a shore excursion, enjoying our private island or on board one of our ships, we ask that you abide by this policy. It is not intended to be all-inclusive and it is possible that not all issues are specifically addressed. Guests are always expected to follow the direction of the ship’s Captain, who will take the necessary action to ensure the safety, security and well being of our guests. Guests are also expected to comply with applicable laws of the various countries that their cruise visits. Updates to the Guest Conduct Policy may be made between publications of this directory and will be available for review on the Norwegian Cruise Line website www.ncl.com.

Safety and Security

Safety and security are everyone’s responsibility. Should anyone become aware of unsafe or possibly illegal behavior during their cruise, they should immediately report this to the ship’s Security Staff or other ship management. This may be done through ship’s telephone system by dialing 911 or by seeking the assistance of a crew member.

Guest Conduct

GUEST AND CREW INTERACTION

Our crew members are friendly, outgoing and helpful, and they will do their very best to make your vacation as enjoyable as possible. Please do not misinterpret their friendliness. Crew members are prohibited from engaging in physical relationships with guests. Crew members are not permitted to socialize with guests beyond their professional duties, and are not permitted to be in guest staterooms, except for the performance of their shipboard duties. Guests are expected to respect these policies and are similarly prohibited from engaging in physical relationships with crew members. Guests are not permitted in any restricted or crew area of the ship, including crew staterooms and corridors.

VERBALLY ABUSIVE OR OFFENSIVE LANGUAGE

Verbally abusive or offensive language directed toward anyone, to include guests, crew members, governmental officials, or others is not permitted.

INAPPROPRIATE OR ABUSIVE BEHAVIOR

Inappropriate or abusive behavior including uninvited physical contact, solicitation, harassment, vandalism, theft, violence, use of fake/false identification, underage drinking (see alcohol section below), providing alcohol to those under the allowed age (see alcohol section below), possession of illegal substances/items or any other illegal or offensive conduct is not permitted.

UNSAFE BEHAVIOR

Sitting, standing, laying or climbing on, over or across any exterior or interior railings or other protective barriers, or tampering with ship’s equipment, facilities or systems designed for guest safety is not permitted. Guests may not enter or access any area that is restricted and/or for the use of crew members. Any other unsafe behavior, including failure to follow security instructions, is not permitted.

DISCOURTEOUS OR DISRUPTIVE BEHAVIOR

Pool, deck and theater chairs may not be reserved. Topless sunbathing is not permitted. Boom boxes or loud radios are not permitted. Roller blades, roller skates, skateboards, scooters, surfboards, bicycles, and similar items may not be utilized on-board; except for mobility aids related to special needs, as approved by the ship’s management.

SMOKING

As the health and well-being of our guests and crew is of the utmost importance, Norwegian Cruise Line prohibits smoking on stateroom balconies and limit smoking in the casino to players. Public areas throughout all our ships are smoke-free. If you smoke regular or electronic cigarettes, you can do so in designated areas only. For more information on our smoking policy please click here.

CURFEWS

Ship’s management reserves the right to enact and enforce curfews on an individual, group, or ship-wide basis, if in the sole judgment of the ship’s Captain, such steps become necessary to ensure guest or crew safety. Children under the age of 17 are not allowed unaccompanied by an adult after 1:00 am.

DISEMBARKING FROM A SHIP

Parents or guardians must not permit any guest in their care under age 18 from leaving a ship in any port without responsible adult supervision.

PARENTAL AND GUARDIAN RESPONSIBILITY

For purposes of this Guest Conduct Policy, a minor is defined as anyone under the age of 18. A young adult is defined as anyone ages 18, 19 or 20. Parents and guardians are responsible for the behavior and appropriate supervision of their accompanying minor(s) and young adult(s) throughout their vacation. This obligation applies during transfers to and from ships, inside terminals, while onboard, at our ports of call, during shore excursions and at our private destinations. This responsibility applies at all times, regardless of whether the parents and guardians are physically in the company of their minor(s) and young adult(s).

ALCOHOL

Norwegian Cruise Line guests are expected to be responsible for their actions at all times, including during transfers to and from ships, inside terminals, while onboard, at our ports of call, during shore excursions and at our private destinations. Consuming alcohol to excess impairs one’s judgment and reduces one’s ability to recognize and avoid potentially dangerous situations. Guests who choose to consume alcohol must do so responsibly. The ship’s staff may refuse to serve alcoholic beverages to any guest who does not consume alcohol responsibly. Ship’s personnel may request verification of a guest’s age to verify they are of age to consume alcohol pursuant to this policy. Any guest that violates this alcohol policy, will be considered for disciplinary action pursuant to the “Consequences Section” of this Guest Conduct Policy, and may lose their privileges to use the disco or other areas or facilities of the ship or maybe required to disembark the vessel.

Guests are not permitted to bring alcoholic (except wine & a corkage fee will be charged) beverages onboard and Security reserves the right to inspect containers (water bottles, soda bottles, mouthwash, luggage, etc.) at any time. Alcoholic beverages that are purchased from onboard shops or in ports-of-call (which must be presented to security upon re-boarding), will be held until the last night of the cruise. The Freestyle Daily will list the location and time for pick up. Guests who are under the permitted drinking age will not have alcohol returned to them.

The minimum drinking age for all alcoholic beverages on Norwegian Cruise Line ships is 21. Guests who are 18 - 20 years of age can purchase and consume beer or wine when the ship is in international waters (3 miles out of US territorial waters). The age modification does not apply for Alaska and Hawaii sailings. The parent or legal guardian must be onboard the sailing with the young adult and present themselves at the Front Desk so they can sign the form allowing the consumption of beer and wine only. A notarized Parent Consent Form or any other document allowing for temporary guardianship for the purposes of the sailing only will not be accepted.

For purposes of complying with the minimum drinking age requirements, a guest’s age is established upon embarkation (beginning of the cruise). If a guest celebrates their birthday during the cruise, and thereby becomes of age to consume alcohol, the guest may thereafter ask the Guest Services Manager to modify ship’s records to permit their consumption of alcohol during the remainder of the cruise. The guest will be required to appear at Guest Services to present a government issued form of identification to permit verification of their age.

On cruises embarking in a country where the legal drinking age is lower than 21 and where a young adult (age 18, 19 or 20) is not traveling with a parent or legal guardian, they will generally not be permitted to consume alcohol. There may be exceptions made to this restriction in areas of the world where local laws require and Norwegian Cruise Line concurs. Details on such exceptions can be obtained from the Guest Services Desk. No guest under age 18 may possess or consume alcohol at any time, while onboard or at our private destinations. No guest under age 21 may possess or consume alcohol at our private destinations. Any guest who goes ashore and consumes alcohol (whether under the supervision of a parent/guardian or not, is responsible for ensuring they consume responsibly and retain their ability to recognize and avoid potentially dangerous situations when they return to the ship. Parents/guardians are reminded they are responsible for the actions of their child/young adult at all times while on a Norwegian Cruise Line cruise.

Guests who violate any alcohol policy, including but not limited to underage drinking; providing alcohol to minors or young adults; possessing, concealing or attempting to conceal alcoholic items in their luggage, when boarding, or while on board; engaging in alcohol drinking games; or failing to consume alcohol responsibly, will be considered for discipline under the provisions of this policy.

Prohibited Items

Items With Heating Elements or Open Flames

Certain items that generate heat or produce an open flame are not permitted onboard. This includes clothing irons, hotplates, candles, incense and any other item that may create a fire hazard. Curling irons and hair dryers are allowed and may require a converter.

Drugs or Other Illegal Substances

No illegal drugs or other illegal substances including but not limited to medical marijuana are allowed onboard or may be utilized during a Norwegian Cruise Line vacation, including during transfers to and from ships, inside terminals, during shore excursions or at our private island. Illegal drugs or substances will be confiscated and appropriate action taken,which may include removal from the ship and involvement of appropriate authorities. In addition, foreign governments at Norwegian Cruise Line ports of call have strict laws that address drug possession. Guests found in violation of such laws are subject to arrest and prosecution by the foreign jurisdiction (and perhaps United States or other authorities as well) and may be prevented from re-boarding the ship.

Weapons, Explosives or Other Dangerous Items

No weapon, explosive, or other item that presents a risk of harm to persons or property, are permitted onboard. They will be taken by ship’s Security and appropriate action taken. Guests are not allowed to bring their own scuba gears onboard such as oxygen tanks, diving knives, spears, etc.

Non-Alcoholic Beverages

Non-alcoholic drinks such as water, soda and juices – are prohibited to be brought onboard either as carry-on or checked luggage on both embarkation and port days. The only exception to this policy is purified or distilled water in factory-sealed containers for use in conjunction with medical devices or for the reconstitution of infant formula.

For a full list of items that are prohibited onboard, please CLICK HERE.

Health and Environment

HAND WASHING

Guests are strongly encouraged to wash their hands with soap and hot water after using the restroom and before eating or handling food. Medical experts say this is one of the best ways to prevent illnesses from starting or spreading.

ILLNESSES AND ISOLATION OF GUESTS

Norwegian Cruise Line follows practices and maintains policies that seek to prevent illnesses from affecting our guests. One of the best ways to prevent the spread of contagious illnesses like gastrointestinal viruses, colds and flu is to wash your hands thoroughly for at least 20 seconds with soap and hot water after using the restroom and again before eating anything. In the event you experience symptoms that indicate a gastrointestinal illness, such as diarrhea or vomiting, or know of someone experiencing these symptoms, you must advise the medical staff immediately. In addition, some gastrointestinal illnesses remain contagious up to 72 hours or more after symptoms subside; therefore, if you or someone you know experienced such an illness just prior to your cruise, you must immediately notify the ship’s medical staff. This will permit the crew to take steps to reduce the chance that your illness will spread to others on the ship. Failure to immediately report a contagious illness to the ship’s medical staff, or to accurately describe its onset, greatly increases the likelihood the illness will spread to others and is a violation of this Guest Conduct Policy. In the event of a contagious illness, the ship’s crew will take steps to curtail its spread to other guests, including if necessary, steps set forth in the Consequences Section on next page.

Guests with Disabilities
While NCL strives to make its Shore Excursion program available to all its guests, inherent tour venue limitations and/or tour operator limitations exist that are beyond NCL's control that limit the ability of guests with special needs to participate in certain Shore Excursions. We urge such guests to advise the Shore Excursion department of disabilities when requesting tours and to further meet with the Shore Excursion staff on board to discuss their disabilities as they relate to the unique characteristics of each Shore Excursion. We typically recommend independent transportation for the comfort and convenience of guests with disabilities.

Our group shore excursions are offered in English. Depending on the booking situation, various excursions are also offered in German, Spanish, French, Italian or Russian (minimum number of 30 participants). The tours offered may vary from cruise to cruise. Please see the detailed information for your shore excursion on board.

This Program commences with sailings departing on or after April 19, 2026. By purchasing hotel accommodations through the Program, you agree to these terms and conditions. Norwegian reserves the right to modify or change these Terms and Conditions at any time, and further reserves the right to terminate this Program at any time, without notice.

1. Program Overview

The Program provides access to centrally located hotel accommodations at a minimum 3- to 3.5-star service level. Guests do not select the hotel, and accommodations are assigned by Norwegian based on availability and internal criteria. This Program provides hotel accommodations for one, two, or three nights, pre- or post-cruise. No more than three nights may be booked through the Program.

Reservations become non-refundable and non-changeable within 60 days of sailing. Hotel assignments are confirmed and communicated to guests at least 30 days prior to cruise departure. Again, Norwegian selects the hotels under this Program, and all hotels meet our service standards. Guests may not request a hotel brand, name, or location, and the selected hotel cannot be changed once assigned.

Hotels are centrally located within the city near the port of embarkation / disembarkation. Distances to the port will vary depending on the city and could be up to, for example, a two-hour drive (or more) from hotel to port.
