Norwegian Cruise Line has just come out with a new extension in the pause of operations for all of their sailings. Except for a few select sailings! In the video, we discuss how NCL is particularly hopeful and holding onto their Alaska sailings and not canceling some September voyages out of Seattle, even though the Canadian government has banned cruise ships until the end of October. What are your thoughts on this continued pause on cruising and that NCL is holding out hope to sail to Alaska in 2020?
Updated June 16, 2020: Your safety is our #1 priority—both on and off our ships. Due to the current global environment, we are extending the suspension of 2020 cruises to include:
All sailings through August 30th
All sailings in September except Seattle-based Alaska cruises

Guests who had an active reservation on a suspended cruise listed above will automatically receive a refund of their cruise fare in the form of a Future Cruise Credit for 125% of the amount paid to date on June 25th. The FCC must be used one year from issued date for ANY Norwegian Cruise Line voyage embarking through 2022.
Guests who prefer to not take advantage of a future cruise credit can elect to receive a lesser refund equal to the amount paid to date to the original form of payment 90 days after form submission for sailings originally scheduled to embark:

At the time of cancellation, all promotional offers, amenities, and value adds will be removed from the booking and will not carry-over to future reservations. Future reservations are subject to prevailing fares and offers in market at the time of booking.
