Come Sail Away

All,
I know, I know - this is crazy advance planning! However, in cruise world, I am told that we need to actually get on this sooner, rather than later.
I have always wanted to spend New Years Eve at sea. I though this trip looked fun! If you are interested, sign up and perhaps we can get a group discount. Deposits ($250 and REFUNDABLE up to 90 days prior to cruise) would need to be paid with NCL ASAP, final balance would be due 90 days prior to sailing. (September 2024)
