Further redeployments “will be announced in the near future”, NCL added.
“When we first welcome our guests aboard Norwegian Jade this July, it will be exactly 500 days since our ships last sailed,” said NCL president and chief executive, Harry Sommer.
“I am so happy that we’re finally getting back to what we love the most, and I’m very proud that we continue to redeploy our fleet methodically. We always said we wouldn’t rush to sail again, but that we’d get back to it when we felt we could do so safely while maintaining our incomparable guest experience.
“Our efforts to resume cruising safely will continue to be slow and steady, guided by the science-backed protocols of our Sail Safe health and safety program and in collaboration with our destination partners as well as with a variety of governing bodies. We cannot wait to see our guests rediscover the world and make memories with their loved ones again.”
As part of NCL’s redeployment announcement, the line has cancelled all voyages on Pride of America through 30 October; Escape through 2 November; Jewel through 9 January; Pearl through 7 December; Spirit through 28 January; Sun through 18 January and the 24 October itinerary aboard Bliss.
