Norwegian Cruise Line is to introduce a new All-Inclusive package that includes dining, beverages, internet, excursions and more, on the majority of its 2015 sailings.
Taking the line’s signature Freestyle Cruising to a new level, the package is valued at more than US$2,400 per stateroom and will be available to customers making 2015 reservations between 4 and 29 August 2014. It will be offered for all of the line’s three- to 14-day voyages, except those on Pride of America and those booked in Continental Europe or the UK.
“Based on the popularity of our Fly, Cruise and Stay vacations, along with our onboard dining and beverage packages, we are now offering the first All-Inclusive package for our guests who want to experience all that the freedom and flexibility of Freestyle Cruising has to offer,” said Kevin Sheehan, Norwegian’s CEO. “Always an innovator, we are making it easy for those that want everything included in their cruise vacation with the option of our All-Inclusive package.”
Priced according to the length of the cruise, the package is available for all stateroom categories including the Haven by Norwegian.
For a seven-day voyage, the package costs US$899 per person and includes a 10% discount on the total cruise fare. Guests choosing this option also receive Norwegian’s Ultimate Dining package; the Ultimate Beverage Package; shore excursion credit of US$200 per person; daily service charge; 250 minutes of internet use; 20 photos; one bingo session; six bottles of water and other amenities. Passengers on nine- to 14-day voyages will be given 12 bottles of water, while the package costs less for three- to five-day cruises and offers US$100 of shore excursion credit per person.
As part of the All-Inclusive offer, Norwegian’s Ultimate Dining package provides complimentary access to one of the line’s specialty restaurants every night of the cruise, including Cagney’s steakhouse, the French bistro, the Italian restaurant, the Brazilian steakhouse Moderno Churrascaria, the Asian-Fusion restaurant and more. In addition, the Ultimate Beverage package includes a variety of spirits, cocktails, draft beer, bottled beer and glasses of wine up to US$10. Guests can also enjoy unlimited fountain soda and juices at all onboard bars, lounges and restaurants, as well as on Norwegian’s private island Great Stirrup Cay.
