SINGAPORE, 16 May 2024: Norwegian Cruise Line has released itineraries for Norwegian Sun’s inaugural debut in the region for the 2025 season – including several brand-first voyages and ports.
Norwegian Sun will make her Australian debut in December, arriving in Brisbane and Melbourne on the 18 and 21 December 2024. This follows an 18-day French Polynesia and South Pacific sailing scheduled to depart Papeete in December and featuring visits to 10 ports.
The new collection of voyages includes three brand-new itineraries to the Great Barrier Reef and South Pacific between Cairns and Lautoka, Australia, which is also NCL’s first turnaround in both ports; three island-hopping French Polynesia cruises between Fiji and Tahiti; and two Asia sailings.
Norwegian Sun’s inaugural season includes debut visits to Port Douglas and Townsville in Australia, Aitutaki in the Cook Islands, and Suva, Fiji.
It will also be the first time that Norwegian Sun visits several other ports, including Mystery Island and Port Vila in Vanuatu, Dravuni, Fiji, Noumea, New Caledonia, and the port of Kushiro, known for some of the most unspoiled scenery and wildlife habitats in Japan.
