NCL doesn’t get all the credit it deserves as one of the long-time leaders in cruising, but Norwegian Cruise Line continues to stand out as an opportunity to kick back and relax, party and go crazy or just about anything in between.

The company breaks the boundaries of traditional cruising, most notably with the introduction of Freestyle Cruising, which has revolutionized the industry by allowing guests more freedom and flexibility. An NCL cruise is designed to be a liberating experience, free of the schedules and restrictions found with traditional cruises.

Today, NCL has the youngest fleet in the industry with 11 purpose-built Freestyle Cruising ships, providing guests the opportunity to enjoy a relaxed cruise vacation on the newest, most contemporary ships at sea.

These People Will Love NCL

* Freedom lovers: Norwegian Cruise Line’s signature Freestyle Cruising allows guests to choose what they want to do from moment to moment, with no fixed dining times, no formal dress codes, relaxed disembarkation, up to 10 different restaurants and even more lounges, bars, theatres and other entertainment and activity options.

* Kids who want to have fun: Ditch the parents and join one of four age groups, each with its own special activities, meals and trained staff who specialize in fun and games.

* Hawaii lovers and newbies: If you’ve never visited the 50th state, NCL has the best itineraries for visiting the islands without wasting long days at sea.
