There was a thread about this last week. The Jade is also showing up as being in the Orkneys and Iceland during July/August.

thanks for sharing will have to look into these.

German site reporting (or spreading?) rumors about Hamburg;

Not sure why they mention Bliss.. there might be a few trips but will it be a true NCL ship?

Indeed, but with her full Asian decor, rooms, menus etc. she is not the ship "for the second biggest cruise market, Germany" with a handful two/three day cruises withhalf of them are on invitation only. That's why I having some doubts.

 

Jade or another older ship making calls at Hamburg would make more sense in words of serving to the market.

Surely Bliss was built with the intention of breaking into the lucrative Asian market. Is it not being built in China? If it is then there is no logic in the Bliss going to Europe for a short period before going back to Asia.

It is being built by Meyer Werft. Construction started last Autumn.

Thank you; everything I had read about the Bliss had it connected with Asia and I assumed it was being built in China.

In summer 2017 the Jade will cruise out of Southampton to Hamburg, Amsterdam, Zeebrugge and Le Havre. There are also cruises to Norway, Scotland and Iceland planned.

The Getaway will take over the Baltics out of Copenhagen and Rostock.

The first paragraph sounds feasible.

 

The second paragraph not so much. Have you got the right ship there?

[FerrySteff]

Yes, its true. NCL today held a media conference in Germany. They announced for summer 2017 a total of five vessels in Europe. Jade out of Southampton, Amsterdam and Hamburg. Getaway out of Copenhagen and Rostock. Epic out of Barcelona. Star out of Venice and the Spirit out of Barcelona and Venice.

That sounds like a bizarre decision. The Getaway is very much out outdoor ship, so would surely be better suited further south.

 

Nice if true though, although we would miss the Getaway in the Baltics, as were doing it this year.

[FerrySteff]

Thats what i thought too. But nice with a little diversity.

 

Enjoy the Baltics! Its beautiful!

[Single Cruiser]

All sounds good to me. It can get quite warm in Sweden in June. When I used to work in Stockholm it was often mid 20s with the lovely long days

[casofilia]

Now for the timetables!! ;) Don't keep us in suspense.

The thing I like about the port visits I've seen for the Jade are that it seems that there may be varying itineraries. Raises the possibility of some B2Bs.

 

The Stars different itineraries tended to be outside the school holidays so we're always difficult for us.

I'm wondering if Getaway is doing the Summer they had planned for Bliss before they decided to start her in China?

[SteveH2508]

My favourite ship doing a variety of ports in Northern Europe in July and August - NCL might just be tempting us back!:D

 

Let's hope the pricing is realistic.

[shipfriend_max]

NCL Jade is to be based in Hamburg and Southampton in 2017, for several Norway, Iceland, British Isles and Western Europe runs.

NCL Getaway is due to sail out of Copenhagen and Warnemuende.

Hmm, true about the Med but St Petersburg is a big port of call on the Baltic itinerary. And the ship will be crowded with Germans or German speaking guests as they get all inclusive in any category as a promo.

[Huntingdon1701]

Wow - Getaway in the Baltic. That's going to be excellent, although I agree that its a slightly surprising choice.

[FreestyleNovice]

The Jade calling in Amsterdam is nice, if they would allow embarkation there.. Schiphol Amsterdam airport is a major hub close to Hamburg otherwise. The Jade will have a turnaround in Southampton but will also have a full German turnaround in Hamburg so the Hamburg cruises might be a better alternative airfare wise for some!
