NCL Cruise Discounts Exclusively for NHS STAFF, POLICE, FIREFIGHTERS, TEACHERS, EDUCATION STAFF, STUDENTS, HEALTHCARE, AMBULANCE CREW, ARMED FORCES, SOCIAL CARE, HM PRISONS
NHS staff, police, the emergency services, teachers and the military get a discount on Norwegian Cruise Line cruise holidays. Your week runs on rotas and timetables, but Freestyle Cruising doesn't. Join the free Sailing Club and request your code.
Freestyle cruising: no set dinner times, no dress code
Norwegian Cruise Line does Freestyle Cruising, which means no fixed dining times, no assigned seating and no formal dress code. Eat when you're hungry, not when a rota says so, with plenty of free restaurants in the fare. Many Caribbean cruises stop at Great Stirrup Cay, Norwegian’s private island in the Bahamas, and there are Alaska itineraries too, so pick your next destination. Room choices run from inside, ocean view and balcony to Club Balcony Suites, Spa staterooms and The Haven, plus Studios made for solo travellers. The team will talk you through the cabin grades.
Cruise discount and deals with NCL, and how to make it bigger
Members get a discount off the cruise fare, and the amount depends on your trip. Add flights and a hotel to your cruise and your discount goes up. These exclusive savings come from an exclusive cruise deal with Rock The Boat, so they don't apply if you book direct with Norwegian or through another travel agent.
