Is NCL discontinuing Boston to Bermuda

Trying to book cruise from Boston in 2019 . Seems like there are no cruises in 2019 and the cruises from Boston to Bermuda have been significantly reduced Anyone know anything about that?

2019 Bermuda cruise's have not been released yet.:)

it is way too early...2019 schedules should be out in the next month or two

2019 Bermuda cruise's have not been released yet.:)

Well, that's a good reason. lol

Hang in there, Geema....they'll be here before you know it. :)

Fingers crossed that they swap out the Dawn for another ship. Seems like the Dawn has been here forever.

:) Epic in 2019 :D

From your keyboard to NCL's inbox! Ha

That would be a nice change. It's weird, I've noticed the other lines cruising out of Boston have switched ships with some regularity, but with NCL it is always the Dawn. Not that the Dawn is a bad ship, it's just been here for years.

Oh, yay! I've been hoping for a new ship in Boston!!! The Dawn has been sailing Boston to Bermuda since 2011. I like the Dawn and will be sailing her at least once in 2018 out of Boston, but am ready to try a new ship from my home port!

Be careful what you wish for. I would take the Dawn over the Epic any day of the week. There's a reason why they only built one ship in the Epic class :)

I'm not particularly a fan of the Epic either. I sailed on her when she first came out from Southhampton to NY. I did, however, enjoy the live music in the dining room. Do they still have that or was that something special?

They still have that. All of the newer ships (away ships and newer) have the live music in the Dining Room. When I was on the Breakaway they even had a floor show with some of the cast from "Burn the Floor". Still not worth it for me to sail Epic. I would rather sail the Dawn, especially now that she's gone through her last dry dock.

I really hope that it will not be the Epic, but one of the Jewel class ships.

Ditto that.

Does anyone have any update on this? I know several "big" ships such as Anthem of the Seas and others routinely come to Boston as port of calls during Canada/NE cruises. I too hope we get a new ship. I know that the Dawn is often booked solid for the Bermuda run, so a larger/newer ship makes sense. My money is on a Jewel class - I'd be shocked if they put the EPIC up here - but then again, it would certainly stand out.

If they put in the Epic for this route we will stop cruising from Boston. Too many pax, not enough outdoor space and sorry but the bathroom and shower configuration will not happen for us. Might start trying other vacation options other than cruising.

I love the DAWN, probably because I finally know where everything is, LOL!! I am on the Pearl on a music charter in January and the Gem in April so I am expanding my cruising experience a bit. :cool:

we loved Epic! i would be excited if she came to Boston. larger ship may mean longer/different itineraries besides teh Bermuda run. maybe they would homeport a larger ship here year round?

while we live here, we always choose to sail from NYC as there are more options (big ship, small ship, different itineraries, etc.)

any idea when we will find out? :)

hopefully sooner rather than later!

:) epic in 2019 :d

no!!!!!!

no!!!!!!

Ditto that. Any ship but the Epic.

I hope the EPIC comes to Boston for a few years!

We're booked on Dawn from Boston to Bermuda September 2018. We've been on only one cruise so far: Gem to Canada and New England. We would not be going next September if we couldn't go on a small ship. Gem was plenty busy for us.

NCL sure is making it hard for Santa to put a 2019 Bermuda cruise ticket under the tree. :(

Us middle of the country folk have no sympathy for you guys that live in/near port cities!! Jealousy, definitely. Sympathy, no. :D
