Norwegian Cash Question

In April we took the Transatlantic Cruise with Norwegian (our first Norwegian) I seem to remember a special they were offering regarding deposits for a future cruise. I believe they matched your deposit (maybe up to $1,000.00) You had to make this deposit during the cruise if I remember correct. Does anyone know if this is something they offer on all their cruises or just because the one we were on was a 14 day cruise. Im thinking I may want to book a little cheapo 3 day cruise just to take advantage of what I think they may offer for any deposits while on a cruise. If I can turn $1,000.00 into $2,000.00 it might be worth it. Remember now...Im not 100% sure if this 'was" the offer but I know it had something to do with doubling a deposit. Thanks so much for any light you can shed on this.

Another question...if I may...when do cruise lines..specifically Norwegian post their new sailing dates...how far out? Again, thank you for taking the time.

Hi Heidi,

I believe you are talking about the CruiseNext offer. If you purchase $1000 of CruiseNext deposits, they give you an immediate $500 onboard credit that you can put towards the purchase.

Please note that each deposit is for $250 and you can use only 1 per booking, and they are good for 4 years. Don't buy too many if you don't plan on multiple cruises. If you book a balcony or above, 6 months in advance, you should be able use 2.

As for advance listings, I think 12-18 months is the rule of thumb. Since they often rotate ships, it's hard to go much farther out.

Hope this helps

Make sure you can use them for short cruises. I thought there was a minimum number of days a cruise had to be.

I believe that CruiseNext certificates ($250 Deposit) are only good on cruises over 5 or 6 days in length. You would not be able to use them on the 3 and 4 cruises out of Miami.

op doesn't want to use the certificates for the short cruise, idea is to take a short cruise to buy them

I believe its 5 day or longer OR any cruise to Cuba.

Does anyone know for sure about usage for Cuba. Looking a sailing for there next spring, we are cruising this fall and I would get next cruise certificate while on board..
