Norwegian Cruise Cancellations 2021
Updated:-“The Norwegian cruise line going to resume sailing from outside of United State with their three ships that are Norwegian Jade, Norwegian Joy, and Norwegian Gem. Norwegian Jade will resume sailing from July 25, 2021, from their homeport Athens, Greece. The Norwegian Joy and Norwegian Gem will do Caribbean Itineraries in the month of August 2021”.
Norwegian cruise line officials announced all United States sailing until April 30, 2021, but for sure they will extend their sailing date again. Because they announced to send back home all non-essential crew members by March-end or April 2021.
They will use their two big ship to repatriate their all Asian( Indian, Indonesian, and Philippines) crew members. The Norwegian Joy and Norwegian Escape will be used for repatriating non-essential crew members.
Two months before Norwegian Escape came to India to get around more than 1000 crew members for service but now they will come to put back all non-essential crew members.
So It’s very hard to say that when they will resume service again, and this is the big factor they are trying to do cost controlling.
The more crew will be on board, the more money they will have to pay as wages. If they work at least 8 to 9 hours a day then they will have to pay at least the basics of their salary.
Officially Norwegian Cruise Line suspended their all U.S Sailing through April, 2021.
And now today 18th Feb 2021 the NCL announced to pause their all sailing until May 30, 2021. So we believe they will not going to resume service before May. They are expecting to resume in May but It may extend again.
