Health and Safety FAQs for All Guests
Are masks required onboard?
- Masks are recommended on board but not required.
Can I explore on my own while in port?
Norwegian Cruise Line is working closely with destination partners, and you will be free to explore ports of call independently. This is largely dependent on the local health authorities and the evolving regulations, which are subject to change.
These restrictions are under the control of local government and are subject to change without advance notice, so we encourage guests to come prepared for potential mask requirements ashore.
