NCL Celebrates Advisors with May Sweepstakes

Norwegian Cruise Line is celebrating the 15th anniversary of its Partners First advisor program with a cruise vacation sweepstakes exclusively for travel advisors.

The dedicated travel advisor program, Partners First, has been at the heart of NCL’s relationship with travel advisors, designed to provide resources, incentives and support that empower advisors to succeed.

Beginning today, May 1, 2026, through May 31, 2026, NCL is giving away 15, seven-day cruises in a balcony stateroom for two. Winners will also have the opportunity to be featured in travel advisor appreciation initiatives throughout the year across a variety of marketing channels including the Company’s Partners First Facebook page. 

“Travel partners are the backbone of our industry, and their success is our success,” said John Chernesky, senior vice president and chief sales officer of Norwegian Cruise Line.

“As we celebrate the 15th anniversary of Partners First, now more than ever we are committed to being the easiest cruise line to do business with, and we’re thrilled to celebrate this milestone with our travel partners. As we have seven ships set to debut through 2037, and two incredible resort-style destinations, Great Stirrup Cay in the Bahamas and Harvest Caye in Belize, there is so much opportunity ahead, and we look forward to succeeding with our travel partners.”  

To enter the sweepstakes, travel partners need to submit a testimonial sharing how NCL and Partners First have made selling cruises easier and more rewarding. Winning entries will be showcased across NCL’s channels, amplifying the voices of advisors and reinforcing the value of the long-term partnership.  

For more information about the sweepstakes, Partners First, or to submit a testimonial, please visit trade.ncl.com.
