NORWEGIAN Getaway is set to debut three
months earlier than expected, with NCL
announcing the ship will launch in late Jan 2014.
Following the ship’s inaugural events in
Europe, including a Transatlantic sailing from
Rotterdam on 16 Jan (stopping in London),
the 4,000-guest Getaway will arrive in Miami
in late Jan 2014, from where she will feature a
year-round seven-day East Caribbean itinerary.
When she arrives, Getaway will be the
largest ship to home port year-round in Miami,
and to accommodate, NCL has announced
that it will modify the itineraries of its existing
ships in Miami including Epic, which from 02
Feb 2014 will depart Miami on Sundays and
sail a Western Caribbean itinerary.
Other changes will see Norwegian Sun
depart Miami on her 10 and 11-day Southern
Caribbean itineraries a day later than
scheduled, on Mondays and Thursdays; whilst
Norwegian Pearl, which had been scheduled
to depart Miami on Sundays will be chartered
from 19 Jan to 21 Mar 2014.
NCL also said that it will add four new sevenday
Western Caribbean itineraries on 21 Mar,
28 Mar, 04 Apr and 11 Apr 2014.
Getaway is currently under construction at
the Meyer Werft shipyard in Germany.
