Bermuda gets BIG NCL Committment
Bermuda is a great cruise destination, and those living in the mid-Atlantic and northeastern USA can easily drive to an embarkation port.
Norwegian Cruise Line (NCL) and the Bermuda Government recently announced that they have reached a long-term agreement that calls for two of NCL's ships to be deployed to Bermuda for the next 10 years, commencing 2009 and running through 2018.
These ships will predominantly depart from New York and Boston and will each sail at least 22 cruises per season, making extended calls in Bermuda.
Since NCL first began sailing to Bermuda, it has been one of our most popular itineraries, and we have developed a truly unique relationship with the community and government of our host destination," said Colin Veitch, NCL's president and CEO. "Over the past 15 years, we have deployed ships from more US homeports to meet the growing demand from US travelers to visit Bermuda. Our new 10-year agreement with Bermuda confirms NCL's position as the leader in Bermuda cruising, plus we now have a solid basis on which to commit two of our fleet of brand new purpose-built Freestyle Cruising ships long term - a significant upgrade from our perspective and from Bermuda's."
