At TPG, we're all about figuring out how to get the most out of our travel experiences while spending less money. For nearly 20 years, I've refined the art of hunting for cruise deals. That's why I was intrigued to learn about Norwegian Cruise Line's new More At Sea cruising package, which adds valuable perks to your cruise. It also doesn't hurt that the More At Sea cruising package is stackable with NCL's Black Friday deal. Score!
The cruise line says it reimagined its freebies package to give travelers a pathway to get more value for their cruise dollars. As I parse the itinerary options, looking for a 2025 cruise to the Caribbean, Alaska and Europe for my family, let me explain this deal-stacking opportunity.
Let's start with the More At Sea cruising package inclusions and benefits. It includes:
*Note: The number of nights you can dine for free at a specialty restaurant depends on the length of your cruise and the cabin category you select.
The More At Sea cruising package is available for any reservation created on or after Oct. 1, 2024, for a sailing of three or more days occurring Jan. 1, 2025, and beyond. This is an ongoing promotion and is not tied to the line's Black Friday deals.
Next, let's delve into NCL's Black Friday sale, which ends Dec. 1. The deal offers 50% off all cruises* (for every passenger in the cabin) on cruises that are three days or longer. Travelers who purchase the More At Sea cruising package also receive its valuable perks, which now features more unlimited beverage choices, more specialty dining meals and more value. (*View for terms and conditions.)
Norwegian Cruise Line has a wide array of itineraries available, including some especially enticing options in the Caribbean, Alaska and Europe. Here are some high-level details on those options.
Peruse NCL's list of Caribbean itineraries, and you'll be surprised by the breadth of the options: There are 14 ships with more than 50 itineraries from nine departure ports and more than 20 must-visit ports of call. And, with U.S. embarkation cities such as Galveston, Texas; Miami, Tampa, Port Canaveral and Jacksonville, Florida; New Orleans; and San Juan, Puerto Rico, it's a cinch to get to your ship. (Caribbean sailings also depart from Panama City and Punta Cana, Dominican Republic.)
Options include:
The nice thing about NCL is that it offers shorter Caribbean sailings for those who are tight on time. For example, you can book a five-night sailing on Norwegian Aqua to visit Harvest Caye in Belize and Cozumel, Mexico, from Miami. Or, sail Norwegian Breakaway out of Miami and spend five nights visiting Puerto Plata in the Dominican Republic and Great Stirrup Cay, one of NCL's private islands in the Bahamas.
