NORWEGIAN Cruise Line (NCL) has brought cruising back to Philadelphia, becoming the first line to sail from the city in 15 years.
NCL’s Norwegian Jewel recently arrived in Philadelphia for a series of voyages to New England, as well as Bermuda and Canada.
Jewel will be followed later by Norwegian Pearl, which will sail from Philadelphia from 2026-2028.
NCL’s parent company Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings is currently building a brand-new terminal in the city, due to open this cruise season, which will welcome guests and facilitate an easy embarkation and disembarkation process.
Meanwhile, NCL is set to pay out US$2 million (A$2.8 million) over its sales practices in the United States during the COVID-19 pandemic.
NCL has agreed to pay the amount to a dozen US states, after allegedly distributing “confusing and conflicting information” about bookings.and cancellations
