Norwegian Getaway to sail to the Eastern Caribbean from Miami year-round beginning in February 2014
Norwegian Getaway sailings open for sale on October 23, 2012
Wiesbaden, October 11, 2012 – Norwegian Cruise Line has announced that Norwegian Getaway will be delivered in late January 2014, earlier than originally scheduled, and will sail a seven-night Eastern Caribbean itinerary from Miami year-round. Carrying 4.000 passengers, Norwegian Getaway will be the largest ship to home port year-round in Miami and will be designed to give guests a taste of Miami whilst on board.
“We are pleased that Meyer Werft will deliver this incredible vessel three months earlier than scheduled,” said Kevin Sheehan, Norwegian Cruise Line’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “Norwegian Getaway is going to offer a fantastic cruise opportunity sailing to the Eastern Caribbean.”
Following inaugural events in Europe, Norwegian Getaway will arrive in Miami in late January 2014 and begin her first Eastern Caribbean sailing on Saturday February 1, 2014. Ports of call include: Philipsburg, St. Maarten; St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands; and Nassau, Bahamas. In addition, the company announced the ship’s Transatlantic sailing which will depart Rotterdam, The Netherlands on January 16, 2014 and include a stop in Southampton, where guests can also embark, followed by nine days at sea before arriving in Miami on January 27, 2014.
To accommodate Norwegian Getaway’s arrival in January, the company is modifying the itineraries of its existing ships in Miami during that time.
Beginning February 2, 2014, Norwegian Epic will depart Miami on Sundays and sail a Western Caribbean itinerary. Ports of call include: Ocho Rios, Jamaica; Cozumel and Costa Maya, Mexico.
Norwegian Sun will now depart Miami on her 10- and 11-night Southern Caribbean itineraries a day later than scheduled on Mondays and Thursdays.
Norwegian Pearl which had been scheduled to depart Miami on Sundays will be chartered from January 19 to March 21, 2014.
In addition, four new seven-night Western Caribbean itineraries will be added on March 21, March 28, April 4 and April 11, 2014.
Currently being built at Meyer Werft in Germany, Norwegian Getaway will be 146.600 gross tonnes and offer a wide range of accommodation. The ship will feature a rich mix of stateroom options including The Haven by Norwegian™, comprised of 42 Suites at the top of the ship in an exclusive, private key-card enclave and 22 additional Suites located throughout the ship; the innovative Studios, designed and priced for solo travellers; a wide range of Inside, Oceanview and Balcony Staterooms as well as Mini Suites; along with Spa Balcony Staterooms, Spa Mini Suites and Spa Suites in close proximity to the spa. Norwegian Getaway’s sister ship, Norwegian Breakaway, will begin sailing from her year-round home port of New York City in May 2013.
