Norwegian Cruise LineÃâî (NCL), a leader in global cruise innovation, has just unveiled its latest Prima Plus Class ship, the Norwegian Luna, now available for booking. As the 21st vessel in NCLâÃâ¬Ãâ¢s modern fleet, Norwegian Luna will offer guests a range of sun-soaked voyages departing roundtrip from Miami between April and November 2026.
Kicking off its inaugural Caribbean season on April 4, 2026, Norwegian Luna will feature two Western Caribbean itineraries, visiting Roatan Island, Honduras; Costa Maya and Cozumel, Mexico; and Harvest Caye, Belize. Following this, the ship will sail on seven-day Eastern Caribbean routes to destinations such as Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic; Tortola, British Virgin Islands; St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands; and NCLâÃâ¬Ãâ¢s private island, Great Stirrup Cay, which will boast a new pier by late 2025.
Stretching 1,056 feet and weighing in at 156,300 gross tons, Norwegian Luna will accommodate around 3,550 guestsâÃâ¬Ãâan increase in both size and capacity over its predecessors, Norwegian PrimaÃâî and Norwegian VivaÃâî. This state-of-the-art ship is being built alongside its sister vessel, Norwegian Aqua, and designed by prestigious architectural firms including AD Associates, Piero Lissoni, Rockwell Group, SMC Design, and Studio Dado.
Norwegian Luna will feature striking hull art by renowned street artist ELLE. Titled ââ¬ËLa Luna,' the artwork explores humanityâÃâ¬Ãâ¢s bond with the moon and will adorn the shipâÃâ¬Ãâ¢s bow, symbolizing the epic journey awaiting its passengers.
Exciting onboard experiences await, including NCL's exclusive Aqua SlidecoasterâÃâ¬Ãâa hybrid rollercoaster and waterslide combination that will be the longest and fastest at sea. Additionally, Norwegian Luna will feature the Glow Court, a digital sports complex that transforms into a nightclub by night, as well as fan-favorite attractions like The Drop, a 10-story free-fall slide, and the outdoor sports area, The Stadium.
