Few names are as synonymous with the international cruising industry as Norwegian. In the nearly 50 years since the company's formation, Norwegian Cruise Line has become a high-water mark for seafaring vacations the world over. With cruises offered in every corner of the globe and a total of 19 ships making up its fleet, Norwegian remains a highly favorable cruise company among millions of vacationers worldwide.
In an unexpected turn of events, however, Norwegian has made the bold decision to sell off two of its most noteworthy vessels, spelling out major changes for any cruises scheduled for the next summer season.
In a letter sent out to anyone who had booked a trip through Norwegian, the cruise line wrote, "We're writing to you today with the news that one of our renowned ships from the acclaimed Sun-class series, Norwegian Sky, will leave Norwegian Cruise Line's award-winning fleet to embark toward new horizons."
Though certainly an exciting development for Norwegian, the cruise company was quick to clarify that the Norwegian Sky's sale might impact anyone with plans to board the ship in the near future.
"Cordelia Cruises, India's leading premium cruise line, has agreed to a long-term charter of Norwegian Sky beginning September 30, 2026, in Dubai, UAE. While we are excited for her new chapter, it does mean, sadly, that to accommodate her timely arrival in Dubai, UAE on September 30, 2026, all Norwegian Sky sailings embarking on or after August 20, 2026, will be canceled," Norwegian explained.
Shortly after Norwegian announced the sale of the Norwegian Sky, the cruise line went on to similarly announce the sale of its fellow Sun-class vessel, the Norwegian Sun.
Any guests whose cruises have been canceled as a result of the sale will be refunded their fare within 30 days. As a further gesture of good will, these guests will also receive a 10% discount on the next cruise they book through Norwegian, in the form of Future Cruise Credit (redeemable from April 15, 2025 to December 31, 2026).
