Norwegian Cruise Line is cancelling four cruises aboard the Pride of America scheduled between May 3 and May 24, 2025, to accommodate routine maintenance on the ship.
The cruise line expressed its commitment to providing exceptional vacation experiences and maintaining a world-class product across its fleet, necessitating the maintenance work on the Pride of America during the specified period.
