EPIC’s sails for the UK Travel Trade

A two-night inaugural cruise for the travel trade by Norwegian Cruise Line’s new ship Norwegian EPIC is to run from Southampton next summer. The line’s largest vessel, which is currently being built, will visit the UK next June en route to the US where it will be christened in New York on July 2.


Norwegian EPIC, which will offer 20 different dining options and multiple nightlife venues, will sail on June 19 to Rotterdam and will run an overnight cruise from the Dutch port back to Southampton on June 21. The ship will then depart on its transatlantic crossing to New York on June 24.
Following the christening celebrations in the Big Apple, Norwegian EPIC will move to its home port of Miami prior to the start of regular seven-night eastern and western Caribbean cruises on July 10, 2010.
