It’s getting close!!! Took me a minute to figure out why my medallion looked like that rather than black for elite but it’s Sanctuary Class!!! I can’t wait. My cruise season usually runs November to May so it’s about to go off. I’m more than ready and needing it.

I have a cruise I created a group for some special pricing for, here are the details. Message me with any questions at all.
Norwegian Cruise Line, the ship is the Viva (Prima Class and debuted this year) stops are Cozumel, Costa Maya, Roatan Honduras, and Harvest Caye Belize (their private island).
Dates are 2/13/27-2/20/27. Yes this is very far in advance, it was the best time to get the best price available. It is Super Bowl weekend which is also the same day as Valentines day.
I have Balcony rooms that start at $1414.27 per person that come with 10 photo package, $200 on board credit, $50 shore excursion credit, and 150 min WiFi. If you want the balcony room with drinks, 3 nights specialty dining, 150 min WiFi, $50 shore excursion credit and $100 on board credit it is $1684.37 per person. These are prices for 2 in a room, not solo prices. While I can book solo I don't any a special deal on solo cruises.
If you are looking for an inside room they start at $1171.27 per person, you pick 2 of the following; 10 picture package, $100 on board credit, $50 shore excursion credit, 150 min wifi. If you want to do it with drink and 1 night specialty dining it will be $1401.27 per person. Again this is price for 2 in a room not solo.
This pricing is good until 1/7/25. Deposit is $250 per cabin and final payment date is 10/16/26. The balcony room is a discount of $410 and comes with an extra $100 on board credit over what you can book on the website.
