From "Free at Sea" to "More at Sea"

Norwegian’s "Free at Sea" package had long been one of the most attractive promotions in cruising. It offered guests the choice between perks like free drinks, complimentary specialty dining, free shore excursions, Wi-Fi, and more. It was a simple way for passengers to customize their cruise experience with extra benefits, allowing them to enjoy more value and an all-inclusive feel during their voyage.

However, with growing competition and an increased focus on enhancing the onboard experience, Norwegian saw an opportunity to offer even more to their passengers. Enter: "More at Sea." The upgraded package retained the perks that made "Free at Sea" so popular and expanded on them, providing more value and catering to a broader range of interests.

What's new in the "More at Sea" package?

The "More at Sea" package includes all the beloved benefits of "Free at Sea" with several exciting new elements:

Expanded beverage selections: "More at Sea" broadens the drink package available through "Free at Sea" to include 45% more premium beverages, plus a larger selection of wine, beer, and spirits.

Enhanced dining options: "More at Sea" offers access to a variety of specialty dining options, plus up to three appetizers and three desserts at each specialty meal.

Stronger Wi-Fi: "More at Sea" enhances guests’ Wi-Fi experience by providing more minutes per cabin. Guests staying three to six nights can get 75 minutes per guest, and guests staying seven or more nights can get 150 minutes per guest. It’s applicable for all guests in the cabin, is powered by Starlink, and can be used by one guest on one device at a time.

Shore excursion credit: Similar to "Free at Sea," "More at Sea" offers guests a $50 shore excursion credit for the first passenger in their booking.

Why add "More at Sea" to your cruise package?

Consider the "More at Sea" package if you want to minimize your added costs onboard. The dining options, premium beverage selections and shore excursion credit make for a more luxurious, convenient, and seamless vacation. The enhanced Wi-Fi is a great bonus for those who value staying connected, particularly for those who need to stay in touch with work or family.

"More at Sea" became available on October 1, 2024, and can be applied to voyages beginning January 1, 2025 or beyond. Those sailing sooner who have already purchased a "Free at Sea" package will still be able to use that. Guests who’ve purchased Norwegian Cruise Line's Free at Sea for cruises in 2025 or beyond will be automatically upgraded.
