Norwegian Cruise Line has launched its first-ever Semi-Annual Sale, unlocking savings of 50 percent on all cruises, in addition to free pre-paid gratuities on select sailings.

NCL's Latitudes members benefit from early access July 8-9, while the sale opens to the public from July 10 through July 16.

This summer's Semi-Annual Sale is also combinable with NCL’s Free at Sea package, featuring customizable amenities such as unlimited open bar, specialty dining, shore excursion credits, and Wi-Fi.

"Our first-ever Semi-Annual Sale is the best deal of the season, giving our guests even more reason to book their next vacation with us," NCL President Marc Kazlauskas said in a statement. "Combining incredible destinations, award-winning onboard offerings and the freedom and flexibility for our guests to design their dream vacation is what NCL stands for—and there is no better time to book and experience all that we have to offer."

Travelers have a plethora of choices during this week's sale, including booking a spot on the company’s new cutting-edge ship, Norwegian Aqua, which sets sail from Miami in June 2027.

On top of the 50 percent discount, added savings from free pre-paid gratuities start at $280 on a qualifying standard seven-night voyage for two.
