"The recent 2025 itinerary cancelations are a result of varied events including the ongoing situation in the Red Sea and Israel, modified dry dock schedules for ship enhancements, a full ship charter, and lastly, to accommodate the demand for shorter close-to-home voyages to the Bahamas," a spokesperson for the cruise line told T+L.

The affected itineraries are as follows:

• Norwegian Epic - , Feb. 20, 2025, Nov. 1, 2025, Nov. 11, 2025
• Norwegian Jade - Mar. 4, 2025, Mar. 13, 2025, Mar. 24, 2025

In February 2024, NCL also announced it would no longer dock in Venice, Italy, due to restrictions of the waterways.  “While we have made every effort possible to maintain these calls to Venice, the tender operation and overall experience this provides our guests has fallen short of the standard we aim to deliver,” a spokesperson from NCL told T+L at the time.  Despite the cancellations, the cruise industry continues to rebound since COVID-19 closures.

Press Releases

Oceania cruises offers more in-depth exploration in polynesia than ever before.

Set sail to paradise on board small, luxurious ships and discover new horizons, with expertly curated excursions in this bucket list destination in 2025

MIAMI , June 25, 2024 /PRNewswire/ --  Oceania Cruises , the world's leading culinary- and destination-focused cruise line, is offering the industry's most unique and extraordinary itineraries to explore the breathtaking region of Polynesia in 2025, taking travelers to discover boutique and off-the-beaten-path islands from the comfort of the line's small, luxurious ships.

The 2025 season in the South Pacific will be Oceania Cruises' most expansive to date, with their elegant ships Nautica and Regatta traversing the remote region during both the winter and summer seasons. Both seasons' unique itineraries have been specifically designed to create a memorable and immersive experience for well-traveled, curious guests, allowing them to delve deeper into this fascinating region. Offering an ultra-premium experience, Regatta and Nautica are ideally suited to explorations in the region, featuring more veranda staterooms and more free specialty dining options than any other ship regularly based in Tahiti.

"Our 2025 collection of itineraries spanning Polynesia offers guests the opportunity to discover the astounding nature, rich culinary heritage and deep-rooted cultural traditions of the South Pacific," commented Frank A. Del Rio, President of Oceania Cruises. "With only 670 guests on board our ultra-premium ships, there is no doubt that traveling through Polynesia with Oceania Cruises is by far the most relaxing and carefree way to experience the most relaxing and carefree place in the world."

At the heart of this extensive, diverse season are ten-day round-trip Papeete sailings, perfect for inquisitive travelers looking to explore the remote, nature-rich islands that characterize this region.

Wildlife-loving guests can look out for the abundance of spectacular marine life that frequent the sparkling turquoise waters around the islands, including spinner dolphins, whales and stingrays. The region plays host to a spectacular number of ancient archaeological sites, rugged mountains adorned with wild hibiscus and colorful ginger flowers. After a day exploring the untouched natural wonders of Polynesia, what better way to relax than to sit and watch some of the most stunning sunsets in the world from the deck.

The diverse selection of itineraries includes the must-sees in French Polynesia such as vibrant Papeete, the paradise island of Nuku Hiva, and a number of overnight stays in Bora Bora, the most romantic island in the world.

These voyages are perfect for travelers wishing to soak up the laid-back, island atmosphere, where they'll take in iconic views of the mountains and stunning beaches and enjoy only-in-Polynesia adventures such as tours of vanilla and black pearl farms, picturesque lagoon cruises and motu island picnics. Oceania Cruises' extensive range of highly curated shore excursions allows guests to discover the islands for themselves, absorbing the unspoilt, natural beauty that these islands radiate alongside the region's unique cultural traditions.

Additionally, Oceania Cruises offers a variety of longer voyages, giving guests the chance to explore Polynesia after visiting the spectacular topography of Hawaii or New Zealand, as well as World Voyages of up to 111 days long, ending in Singapore, Cape Town or Barcelona.

Shore Excursion Highlights:

Oceania Cruises has partnered with luxury and lifestyle travel magazine Condé Nast Traveler to bring globetrotters an exclusive collection of itineraries handpicked by the magazine's dedicated editors. Four of Oceania's Polynesia itineraries are included among the 23 Condé Nast Traveler branded itineraries, featuring editorial insights and unique tips in featured ports of call, sharing insider knowledge on what to discover, savor and experience in each destination.

An example of exclusive editor's tips in French Polynesia includes skipping the restaurants and heading to the food trucks, or roulettes as they're called in Papeete, for a cheap and cheerful al fresco dinner featuring local bites; strolling through downtown Papeete getting to know its storied history via its colorful colonial architecture while visiting landmarks like the Notre Dame Cathedral, town hall and the bustling 155-year-old Papeete Market; and swimming with reef sharks during an intimate boat tour aboard a small sailing catamaran with family-run tour operator Voila Moorea.

Additional shore excursion highlights include:

Aito Off-Road Safari:  Traveling off-road in a four-wheel drive, soak up the exquisite beauty of Moorea, exploring the verdant mountains, deep valleys and white-sand beaches, stopping at a sacred ancient marae and learning about the pineapple crop on the way.

Vanilla Flavor & Taha'a Motu Picnic: Cruise to the island of Taha'a from Raiatea – source of 70% of the vanilla grown in French Polynesia – to explore an intoxicatingly fragrant vanilla plantation and visit a tiny islet for a Polynesian picnic lunch and some beach time.

Sail Bora Bora by Catamaran:  Discover Bora Bora's famously gorgeous lagoon by catamaran, comfortably watching the views of the magnificent extinct volcanoes and spotting colorful tropical fish above the crystalline reef.

Discover Tahiti's West Coast:  From the Robert Wan Pearl Museum and Marche de Papeete to the tranquil Jardins Paofai, observe the surfers on their longboards alongside natural treasures like the thundering Faarumai Waterfalls, Arahoho Blowhole, and the Maraa Fern Grottos, home to the largest underwater cave in Tahiti.

Visit to Taipivai Valley: Set off on a guided adventure in a four-wheel-drive vehicle into the lush valley described in Herman Melville's 1846 novel, Typee . A famously rugged paradise, Taipivai Valley is spectacularly beautiful, rich in archeological sites, and yours to discover during this fascinating excursion.

Shark and Stingray Snorkel Safari in Bora Bora: Explore Bora Bora's turquoise, unspoilt lagoon via boat before slipping into the gin-clear waters to discover the ancient crater rim of Moti To'opua, gliding alongside the island's graceful stingrays and parrotfish.

Ship Highlights: The better-than-new Regatta and Nautica blend sophistication with a contemporary flair to create a casually elegant ambiance that embodies the most treasured elements of our celebrated ships. Both ships feature more free specialty dining options than any other ship regularly based in the region, in addition to offering an array of relaxed yet refined dining experiences. A refreshed color palette of soft earth, sea and sky tones encourages relaxation in suites and staterooms, and guests can indulge in a soothing massage or rejuvenating treatment in the Aquamar Spa + Vitality Center on board.

Polynesia Voyage Highlights:

Tahitian &   Hawaiian Hues: 18 days from Los Angeles to Papeete aboard Nautica,  overnighting in Bora Bora and Papeete and visiting Lahaina, Honolulu, Hilo, Raiatea and Moorea. Departs January 8, 2025.

Plan on spending a day or two exploring your starting port of call and all it offers.

Ports of Call Along the Mexican Riviera

A cruise along Mexico's famed west coast will include stops at several ports of call on the way, from Ensenada in the north to Puerto Vallarta in the south and everywhere in between. No matter which port you're visiting, you'll have the opportunity to swim in crystal-clear water, stroll along white-sand beaches while basking in the sunshine, and explore the area with a variety of shore excursions.

Located just south of Los Angeles across the Mexican border, Ensenada is a port that offers the perfect blend of American and Mexican culture. Ensenada is considered part of the Pacific Coast's wine country, so you can participate in a wine-tasting session while enjoying a gourmet lunch. Take a scenic drive to La Bufadora, a blowhole that has fascinated tourists for generations, or try your luck at the Riviera del Pacifico resort and casino, which was established in the 1930s and keeps travelers eager to test their luck and skill at a variety of table games.

Cabo San Lucas

  Cabo San Lucas , you step into the world of the rich and famous, experiencing a port filled with luxury resorts and gated communities. Opportunities for water sports abound in Cabo, including the chance to parasail, kayak, and snorkel. Be sure to snap a photo at the famous arch rock formation located at the southern tip of Mexico's Baja California, where the Pacific Ocean becomes the Gulf of California. Animal lovers can enjoy a swim with dolphins or hop aboard a whale-watching tour. Adventure awaits around every corner in Cabo San Lucas.

Mazatlán is all about breathtaking scenery, rugged terrain, and a rich cultural history that's evident in everything from the architecture to the cuisine. Visit Old Mazatlán, a 19th-century cathedral with a gilded ceiling, or take a peek inside Teatro Angela Peralta, originally built in 1874 and completely restored to its classic design. You can't miss a hike up to El Faro, a 19th-century lighthouse perched high atop a mountain that offers exceptional views to any adventurers up for the challenge.
