Norwegian Cruise Line (NCL) has announced its fall-winter 2026/27 season, featuring over 400 new sailings across 11 regions. The deployment will span from September 2026 to April 2027, offering travelers access to close to 100 destinations in 38 countries from 20 different departure ports.

"Offering our loyal guests more ways to have their own best vacation with more of what they love is central to our commitment," said David J. Herrera, president of Norwegian Cruise Line.

The Caribbean expansion will include fifteen NCL ships operating five- to 13-day Caribbean sailings from multiple ports. Norwegian Prima will have its first season in New Orleans, while Norwegian Viva will return to Galveston. Norwegian Aqua and Luna will sail from Miami, and Norwegian Breakaway will launch Southern Caribbean itineraries from San Juan on November 15, 2026. Norwegian Pearl will also offer Caribbean cruises from Philadelphia from November 14, 2026, through March 20, 2027.

In the Mexican Riviera, Norwegian Encore will launch a full season from Los Angeles, offering seven-day roundtrip itineraries to Cabo San Lucas, Mazatlan and Puerto Vallarta, from October 18, 2026 through April 4, 2027. Plus, Norwegian Star will embark on weeklong voyages to the region from San Diego on December 19, 2026 until March 27, 2027.
