Programme features departures from Philadelphia, shorter cruises to fun-in-the-sun destinations and bucket-list trips
Norwegian Cruise Line (NCL) has announced its 2026 spring-summer itineraries.
Embarking from US and Canadian ports between April and November 2026, NCL's voyages will call at 30 destinations across the Caribbean, Bermuda, Bahamas, Canada, New England and Alaska.
NCL President David Herrera said: “Our new 2026 spring-summer deployment further meets the vacation demands of our guests with more shorter cruise offerings to fun-in-the-sun destinations, such as the Bahamas and the Caribbean, as well as a variety of longer itineraries to bucket-list destinations, such as Alaska.”
The new 2026 spring-summer season includes nearly 250 itineraries for nine of NCL’s soon-to-be 20 ships and features voyages from the Port of Philadelphia (PhilaPort) for the first time in many years. Plans are under way with the local government in Philadelphia to develop a facility to welcome cruisers in 2026.
Jeff Theobald, Executive Director and Chief Executive of PhilaPort, said: “Philadelphia has so much to offer, as the birthplace of freedom and the home to much of our nation’s history, we look forward to connecting cruisers with our world class city.”
