As we move away from the peak travel season, many Australians are turning their thoughts to their next getaway. Norwegian Cruise Line (NCL) invites you to consider the dream holiday waiting for you during the off-peak cruising season.

With lower prices, cooler weather an increased opportunity for cultural immersion and more, an off-season cruise is the perfect escape from the everyday hustle and bustle with ample opportunities for relaxation and rejuvenation.

What’s even more exciting is that NCL is currently offering up to 35% off and US$200 OBC on all sailings through 2026 across its soon-to-be 20-ship fleet, providing guests with more value at sea*. This incredible discount can be combined with NCL’s new and more inclusive ‘More at Sea’ package, which includes an expanded selection of upgraded premium beverage offerings, more specialty dining meals, and more minutes with access to Starlink’s high-speed Wi-Fi.

Below, please find a few additional reasons why consumers might turn their heads to the possibility of holidaying in the offseason:
