NCL America's Hawaii schedule

NCL Corporation (NCL) recently unveiled the itinerary for the Pride of America, the second of three U.S.-flagged ships that will sail Hawaii under the NCL America brand. With a delivery date of June 6, 2005, and after several inaugural cruises, the Pride of America will begin sailing seven-day roundtrip cruises from Honolulu on July 23, as well as offering three-day and four-day inter-island cruises between Honolulu and Maul.

In addition, the company announced that it would offer a Maul embarkation/debarkation option on the Honolulu-based Pride of Aloha, resulting in a seven-day roundtrip cruise from Maul in addition to her current seven-day roundtrip cruise from Honolulu. NCL's third Hawaii-based ship, the Norwegian Wind, will continue her popular 10and 11-day Hawaii and Fanning Island itineraries from Honolulu. The Norwegian Wind sails under the Norwegian Cruise Line brand.

The Pride of America's roundtrip seven-day cruises from Honolulu feature a day in Hilo, Hawaii; two days in Kahului, Maul; a day in Kona, Hawaii; and two days in Nawiliwili, Kauai. The three-day cruise will embark in Honolulu every Saturday and include one day in Hilo and two days in Kahului, debarking there every Tuesday. The four-day cruise will embark in Kahului every Tuesday and include one day in Kona and two days in Nawiliwili, debarking every Saturday in Honolulu.
