In early 2023 I left my corporate accounting career, which allowed me to focus on my... read more

Determining the "best" Norwegian Cruise Line ship can depend on various factors like personal preferences, desired amenities, and the type of cruise experience you are looking for. However, based on recent rankings and reviews, a few ships stand out in the Norwegian fleet for their overall excellence in different aspects:
Norwegian Bliss: Highly regarded for its entertainment options, which include a race car track, laser tag, and a virtual rollercoaster. It also features a wide range of dining options and has been praised for its ship quality.
Norwegian Joy: Known for its unique two-level race track and a variety of virtual reality games. It offers a blend of dining experiences and has received high marks for its ship quality, especially after a significant refurbishment in 2019.
Norwegian Encore: Celebrated for its arts-focused entertainment, including the Tony Award-winning musical “Kinky Boots.” It also boasts the longest racetrack at sea and a range of virtual reality games, alongside a variety of dining options.
Norwegian Viva: The newest ship in the fleet, noted for its beautiful and modern design. It offers multiple pool areas, innovative game areas, and comfortable and spacious staterooms. The ship is designed to provide a more sophisticated and contemporary cruising experience.
Each of these ships has its unique appeal, with specific strengths in areas like dining, entertainment, staterooms, and overall ship quality. The choice of the best ship could vary depending on whether you prioritize newer amenities, family-friendly features, luxury experiences, or specific types of entertainment and activities.
To potentially get a free upgrade on a Norwegian Cruise Line, you can participate in their "Upgrade Advantage" program. This program allows passengers to bid on cabin category upgrades before their cruise. Here's a summary of how it works and some key points to consider:
Invitation to Bid: Not every passenger will receive an invitation to bid. The invitations depend on the ship's capacity and the availability of higher-category staterooms.
Bidding Process: If invited, you'll receive an email linking to a bidding page. Here, you can place a bid on available stateroom categories. Your bid is a per-person amount, based on double occupancy.
Bid Acceptance: There's no guarantee your bid will be accepted. If it is, your credit card will be charged immediately, and the amount is non-refundable. The acceptance of bids can happen anytime before the cruise, even until just before sailing.
Stateroom Assignment: If your bid is successful, you won’t have control over the specific stateroom you get within the upgraded category. It will be assigned to you.
Retained Perks: You'll retain the perks associated with the stateroom you originally booked, not the upgraded one.
Bidding Strategy: The likelihood of your bid being accepted increases with a higher bid amount. There's a meter indicating the strength of your offer from "Poor" to "Excellent."
Considerations Before Bidding: Think about whether the location of your stateroom is important to you and how much time you plan to spend in your room. Also, consider why you didn’t book the upgraded stateroom originally and if those reasons still apply.
Remember, while bidding can be a way to potentially enjoy a higher-category stateroom for less, it's not a guaranteed upgrade. It's more like a gamble where you might or might not win the desired upgrade.
In 2024, Norwegian Cruise Line offers a wide range of destinations for their cruises. Some of these destinations include:
These destinations highlight Norwegian Cruise Line's diverse offerings, allowing travelers to explore a variety of tropical and scenic locations.
The newest ship in the Norwegian Cruise Line fleet as of 2024 is the Norwegian Viva. This vessel is part of the Prima Class and is designed to offer a variety of experiences, bringing passengers closer to the horizon with its features and amenities
The prices for Norwegian Cruise Line cruises vary based on the destination, duration, and type of cabin. Here are three examples reflecting a range of prices for Norwegian Cruise Line cruises in 2024:
Budget Option: A 5-night Caribbean cruise on the Norwegian Breakaway, departing in November 2024, offers an inside cabin for $499 per traveler.
Medium Average Price: An inside cabin on the Norwegian Viva is available from $849 per person.
Higher Average Price: For the Norwegian Prima sailing in April 2024, the cheapest available inside cabin is priced at $839 before taxes and fees.
These prices give an idea of the range of costs for different types of cruises with Norwegian Cruise Line, from more budget-friendly options to higher-end experiences. Keep in mind that these prices are subject to change and may vary depending on the time of booking, specific itinerary, and cabin category.
Norwegian Cruise Line is owned by Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings Ltd., a publicly traded company listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol "NCLH."

This parent company manages a combined fleet of ships offering itineraries to more than 490 destinations worldwide.
The best and highest-reviewed Norwegian Cruise Line ships, as of the latest available information, can be categorized based on various factors like overall experience, ship quality, dining, and onboard activities:
Norwegian Bliss: It scores highly for ship quality, offering a range of amenities including a race car track, laser tag, and a variety of dining and entertainment options. Despite its size and the array of features, it can feel crowded at times, especially around the pool area.
Norwegian Joy: Renowned for its two-level race track and a selection of virtual reality games. The ship also hosts the Broadway show “Footloose” and offers a variety of dining experiences. It was last refurbished in 2019 with significant upgrades.
Norwegian Encore: Known for its arts-focused entertainment, including the “Kinky Boots” musical, and has the longest racetrack at sea. It also features the Galaxy Pavilion with virtual reality games and various dining options.
Norwegian Escape: This ship is appreciated for its family-friendly venues, including a sports complex and water slides. It also has an expansive spa area and offers a range of cabin options, from luxurious suites to cozy inside cabins.
Norwegian Prima: The newest ship in the fleet as of 2022, it's known for its spacious staterooms and unique design. It has quickly earned a top spot in rankings with less than a year’s worth of sailing reviews.
These ships are highly regarded by the cruising community for their quality, range of amenities, dining experiences, and overall guest satisfaction. Each ship offers unique features and caters to different preferences, whether you're looking for family-oriented activities, luxury experiences, or cutting-edge entertainment.

This sale offered a 70% discount off the second guest fare and included seven free offers, indicating that Norwegian Cruise Line periodically offers substantial deals and promotions??.
