Free Beverages on Norwegian Sky, Starting in 2016

Sky_shipNorwegian Cruise Line has announced that an Ultimate Beverage Package will be provided at not extra charge for all sailing of the Norwegian Sky,beginning January 1st, 2016.

The Ultimate Beverage Package includes spirits, cocktails, bottled beer, draft beer, and wines by the glass, up to and including $15 (beverages over $15 will receive a $15 discount), and unlimited fountain soda and juices, at all bars, lounges, and restaurants, and on Stirrup Cay. A 20% discount will be applied to all bottles of wine purchased on board.

There’s a list of beverages that are excluded, including, oddly, bottle water. See the full terms and conditions.

The Norwegian Sky departs Miami on Fridays for three-night cruises to the Bahamas (Nassau and Great Stirrup Cay) and departs on Mondays for four-night cruises to the Bahamas (Grand Bahama Island, Nassau, Great Stirrup Cay).  See a schedule of sailing dates.

These short cruises aboard the Norwegian Sky are a great deal, made better by the new beverage package.  Prices for the three-night cruises start as low as $349 for inside cabins (balcony cabins are a good deal too, starting at $499).  If you have the extra time, consider a four-night cruise. The prices are pretty much the same as (and sometimes lower than) the three-night trip and you’ll get an extra day of cruising and an additional port of call. Prices for the four-night cruise are as low as $229 for inside cabins and $399 for balcony cabins.  See Norwegian Sky cruise prices.
