Norwegian Cruise Line (NCL) is counting down to its much-awaited return to sailing in Asia after more than three years when the newly revitalised Norwegian Jewel makes her grand return to Tokyo on 19 October 2023.
“After more than three years Asia is back in a big way!” said Ben Angell, NCL VP and Managing Director, APAC. “Asia is trending right now, and we know that our adventure-loving guests can’t wait to cruise this incredible region once again. In fact, we recently found that 8 out of 10 Indian families who are planning to travel internationally are considering a cruise holiday*. Onboard, Indian guests can enjoy breathtaking excursions to Asia’s lesser-known ports, enthralling entertainment, multiple dining options and a host of accommodation choices ideal for both small and large groups.”
Norwegian Jewel’s extensive six-month Asia season will offer 16 port-rich itineraries visiting 11 countries and sailing from nine different departure ports, including Tokyo and Yokohama in Japan; Taipei (Keelung), Taiwan; Bangkok (Laem Chabang), Thailand; Bali (Benoa), Indonesia and Kuala Lumpur (Port Klang), Malaysia. With cruises ranging in length from 10-14 days, the season features a number of brand firsts: NCL’s first departures from Manila, Philippines and Seoul (Incheon), South Korea, as well as six new ports of call: Manila, Boracay, Palawan and Salomague, Philippines; Bintan Island, Indonesia; and Hualien, Taiwan.
