LAST week, NCL welcomed 50 media friends, industry partners, and colleagues to The Public Dining Room in Balmoral for a lunch hosted by Jason Krimmel, NCL’s Chief International Sales & Marketing Officer, and Ben Angell, VP & Managing Director Asia-Pacific. The event spotlighted the ‘Near or Far — Experience More of the World’ campaign, showcasing destinations NCL sails to around the globe.
Guests enjoyed globally inspired cuisine, a signature perfume experience, travel trivia, and styling that brought NCL’s key destinations to life.
The event also introduced Norwegian Spirit’s new positioning: ‘Where Grown-Up Getaways Begin’ – an adult-centric cruise experience designed for couples and seasoned travellers seeking serenity over slides. As NCL’s most adult-focused ship, Norwegian Spirit offers no kids’ clubs, fewer guests, and a high guest-to-staff ratio, creating a more boutique-style escape.
Returning this December for her third season, Norwegian Spirit will sail 11- to 14-day Australia and New Zealand itineraries through April 2026, followed by an extensive South Pacific program, before launching her biggest-ever 2026/27 AUNZ season: nine Sydney departures, including five round trips – the most ever – and NCL’s first four-night Tasmania taster cruises.
