Norwegian Cruise Line (NCL) has announced its 2026 spring/summer itineraries to the Caribbean, Alaska, Canada and New England, as well as a new season of voyages from the Port of Philadelphia for the first time in many years. In all, the line’s 2026 spring/summer season includes nearly 250 itineraries for nine of its soon-to-be 20 ships.
On April 16, 2026, Norwegian Jewel will commence seven- to nine-day cruises to Bermuda, launching the city as a new cruise destination. Departing from the SouthPort Marine Terminal Complex, Norwegian Jewel’s Bermuda itineraries will include overnight calls to Royal Naval Dockyard. This new homeport for NCL will provide residents in the U.S. Mid-Atlantic region more access to cruising, as it will be the only cruise line sailing from Philadelphia through October 17, 2026.
Following Norwegian Jewel’s first-ever season of Bermuda voyages from Philadelphia from April 16, 2026 to August 27, 2026, it will sail 10- and 11-day Canada and New England itineraries, alternating embarkation ports between Philadelphia and Québec City. Ports of call include Saguenay, Charlottetown and Halifax, in addition to Bar Harbor, ME and Boston.
On April 19, 2026, Norwegian Breakaway will offer regular turnarounds in Boston with seven-day Bermuda voyages through November. Throughout the peak summer season, voyages will include an overnight stay at the Royal Naval Dockyard and a day in Halifax. From late August through mid-October 2026, the ship will embark on seven-day Canada and New England itineraries calling at Bar Harbor, as well as Saint John, New Brunswick and Halifax.
Moreover, Norwegian Aqua, will return to New York City for its second Bermuda season sailing a selection of five- and-seven-day itineraries with overnight stays at the Royal Naval Dockyard.
In addition, NCL is expanding its short-cruise offering with nearly 40 voyages to the Bahamas from Miami in spring/summer 2026 aboard Norwegian Getaway for a continuous season of cruises to the island-chain nation. The three- to four-night cruises will visit Nassau and Great Stirrup Cay, the line’s private island in the Bahamas. As of late 2025, it will have a newly constructed multi-ship pier.
Norwegian Prima will extend its season in Port Canaveral, FL and sail seven-day Eastern and Western Caribbean itineraries. Ports of call include Montego Bay, George Town and Puerto Plata. For an extended vacation, guests can book back-to-back sailings to create a 14-day voyage.
NCL’s 2026 Alaska season will commence in late April and offer voyages through October from Seattle, Whittier and Vancouver. Guests can enjoy a variety of experiences onboard Norwegian Encore, Norwegian Bliss and Norwegian Joy. Embarking from Seattle’s Pier 66, Norwegian Encore and Norwegian Bliss will sail seven-day voyages, while Norwegian Joy will offer nine- to 10-day itineraries.
Norwegian Jade will offer a series of seven-day open-jaw sailings between Vancouver and the new-to-NCL homeport Whittier with no days at sea. Guests can add a Cruisetour to their reservation, and explore the interior of Alaska, take a ride on the narrow tracks of the Alaska Railroad or fish halibut and salmon in the cold waters of Kachemak Bay.
