Norwegian Epic To Stay In Port Canaveral
One of Norwegian’s largest ships, the Norwegian Epic, will continue to sail out of Port Canaveral through winter 2017-2018.
The Epic, which can carry 4,100 passengers and close to 1,800 crew members, will make its debut at Port Canaveral this November after sailing 2013 and 2014 out of Miami and 2015 out of Europe.
When it moves in the fall, the Epic will replace another Norwegian ship in Port Canaveral, the Norwegian Spirit, which will leave in April.
During its residence at Port Canaveral, the ship will sail three-, four-, six-, and seven-night cruises in the Caribbean and the Bahamas.
Its Florida debut will also mark the first time the Epic will be homeported at an American port after a three-week dry-dock renovation last October that included the debut of The Cavern Club and makeovers of a number of its restaurants, including La Cucina and Cagney’s.
