Ready to see exact fares for your cabin and party size?

Ask on WhatsApp

Straight answers.

Does booking through NestCruise cost more?

No. You pay the fare NCL publishes. Your Navigator is complimentary.

Why might ncl.com show a higher fare?

NCL charges more for a cabin you choose yourself than for one NCL assigns, which ncl.com lists as a Guarantee fare. Each fare here is the lowest NCL lists for that cabin type, so where both are offered it is the Guarantee one. Your Navigator tells you which is worth it.

What do the NestCruise perks include?

With a Balcony, a Club Balcony Suite or The Haven booked through us: $200 onboard credit, $50 shore excursion credit at each of the six ports and 10 professional photos for your cabin, plus 150 Wi-Fi minutes for each guest. NestCruise funds them; your Navigator adds them to the reservation.

Can four of us share one cabin?

Often, yes: NCL lists its Inside cabins for up to four guests. The third and fourth guests in a cabin pay less than the first two, so your Navigator prices your whole party rather than four times the fare shown here.

What is the Atlantic like in late December?

The two days south and the three days home are open-ocean sea days. Seas can be lively and the decks cool, so pack a layer. Midship cabins on lower decks ride most gently.

Does NCL’s Kids Sail Free offer apply?

Not on this date. NCL lists it on other departures of this route; your Navigator prices children on this one.

Not set on the holidays?

The same route also sails Dec 11 → Dec 23 from $1,219 and Jan 4 → Jan 16 from $1,529, inside fares as NCL publishes them.
