Havurah Chai cruise on the Dolly Steamboat in April
Jeanette Rajamaki
Our last in-person meeting was held April 14. Norwegian Cruise Line hosted the meeting with wonderful updates on their new ship launching this summer. The Prima is a new class of ship for Norwegian and very upscale. Norwegian has The Haven, which is an exclusive, adults-only sanctuary. This ship hosts approximately 3,000 passengers and is dramatically different than anything we have seen with Norwegian. The new Bliss and Encore will be coming to the West Coast for the late spring and summer in Alaska. Some Mexican Riviera Cruises as well as sailing out of Los Angeles. Norwegian will be launching a sister ship in 2023, The Viva.
There are lots of great promotions currently with Norwegian and Princess and Celebrity
We are trying to coordinate with Quark Expeditions to present a Zoom meeting sometime in June to discuss their amazing new Ultramarine to Antarctic and the Arctic and review their itineraries. We have a couple solo ladies booked for March of 2024, and some of you may want to join them.
