Thanks to a strong recovery in demand and attractive offers for the Black Friday sale, Norwegian Cruise Line says it has recorded new highs in bookings for a day, a week, a month and a year, all in November.

One of the leading cruise operators in the world, Norwegian Cruise Line (NCL), says that November was a record-breaking booking month. Not only was November 25 the best booking day in the Cruise Line’s history, but November 28 was the best booked Cyber Monday, allowing NCL to achieve a record booking week for the week ending November 25, and to then surpass this achievement with a new weekly record this past week, says NCL in a press statement.

“Momentum is strong and there is no better evidence of this than our record-breaking performance in November, the best-booked month in the history of our Cruise Line,” says Harry Sommer, President and CEO of Norwegian Cruise Line.

“This achievement is even more impressive when considering November is historically one of the slower booking months for our business. On the heels of the successful launch of our groundbreaking Norwegian Prima, which has already received numerous accolades, we are well on our way to a banner year. I’m very excited about 2023 and all that is yet to come,” Sommer adds.

The press statement adds that together with NCL’s Free at Sea offering which provides guests ‘‘incredible value’’ with free unlimited open bar, specialty dining, Wi-Fi, shore excursions, and much more, cruisers have booked their dream vacations at unparalleled levels across the fleet.

The company says that as a leading innovator in the cruise industry, NCL is focused on delivering a guest-first experience with unbeatable service, food and beverage, entertainment and recreation options on voyages to the world’s bucket-list destinations.

Norwegian says that it revolutionised the industry by offering guests the freedom and flexibility to design their ideal vacation on their preferred schedule with no assigned dining and entertainment times and no formal dress codes. Today, its fleet of 18 contemporary ships sail to nearly 400 of the world’s most desirable destinations, including Great Stirrup Cay, the company’s private island in the Bahamas and its resort destination Harvest Caye in Belize.
