Norwegian Cruise Line is preparing for an extraordinary travel season as the beautiful Norwegian Sun completes a scheduled 11-day drydock in Singapore. This essential maintenance and class-related upgrade process ensures the 2,000-passenger vessel remains in peak condition to deliver exceptional vacation experiences. Following these thoughtful updates, the ship will embark on a series of magnificent repositioning journeys, seamlessly transitioning from the vibrant Far East to the breathtaking Indian Ocean and beyond.

Cruise enthusiasts can look forward to a highly anticipated 22-night grand African voyage departing on May 10, 2026. Sailing from Cape Town, South Africa, to Southampton, England, this unique itinerary beautifully connects Southern Africa with Europe. The route stands out by offering a blend of captivating, less-frequented destinations in West Africa. Guests will have the rare opportunity to explore Takoradi in Ghana, Abidjan in Ivory Coast, and Luanda in Angola, alongside beloved, established ports in the Canary Islands, Madeira, and northern Spain.
Before beginning this grand journey, the ship will offer an immersive 16-night cruise from Singapore to Port Louis, Mauritius, featuring stunning stops in Thailand, the Maldives, and the Seychelles. A subsequent 11-night sailing will highlight the gorgeous coasts of Madagascar and South Africa. After an exciting summer season navigating the rich waters of Northern Europe, the vessel will eventually cross the Atlantic to New York City and Miami for the winter.
Looking toward a bright and expansive future, the Norwegian Sun will gracefully transition to Cordelia Cruises in late 2027. Renamed the Cordelia Sun, the vessel will offer premium domestic itineraries in India, marking a wonderful new chapter for this classic ship as it joins its sister vessel in a growing regional fleet.
