Caribbean itineraries

Norwegian Cruise Line announced its Winter 2027-28 deployment, featuring over 370 voyages across nearly 50 countries. This season highlights expanded Caribbean itineraries, significant deployments in Asia, and returns to Australia and New Zealand. NCL is also enhancing its Free at Sea Plus™ program, offering unlimited amenities for a nominal daily fee. The program includes unlimited Starbucks beverages, streaming Wi-Fi, select wine and champagne, bottled water, and specialty dining discounts, with the unlimited open bar extending to their private island.

Princess Cruises announced that its Royal‑Class flagship Sky Princess will home‑port in Port Canaveral, Florida, launching a Caribbean season through March 2026 with six‑ and eight‑day cruises, plus optional 14‑day voyages. The 141,000‑ton, 3,660‑guest vessel features dual‑fuel LNG engines meeting IMO Tier III standards and the MedallionClass digital platform. The deployment supports Carnival’s strategy to deepen Central‑Florida market penetration, with analysts forecasting a 4‑6 % lift in RevPAC for 2025‑26. Port Canaveral’s multimodal access is highlighted as a competitive advantage.
