The upgrade

$49.99per adult, per day · U.S. pricing

Added to an eligible Free at Sea or More at Sea booking with beverage and dining packages. If daily service charges are already prepaid or included, NCL reduces the adult upgrade price to $34.99 per day.

What Plus adds

  1. More premium drinks

    A broader selection of top-shelf spirits and premium wines and Champagne by the glass, plus 40% off eligible bottles of wine and Champagne.

    It is a selected premium range, not every drink on the ship. Availability varies.

  2. Starbucks, water and more

    Starbucks coffee and specialty coffee drinks, energy drinks, fresh juices, bottled water at bars and premium still or sparkling water in restaurants.

    Starbucks is one drink per visit. Food, merchandise, minibar purchases and room service are not included.

  3. Unlimited streaming Wi-Fi

    Move from the standard 150-minute allowance to unlimited streaming internet, with one device connected per eligible guest at a time.

    Guests 3–8 under 21 do not receive this upgraded Wi-Fi benefit. Shipboard connection speeds can vary.

  4. 50% off extra specialty dining

    Keep your Free at Sea meals, then receive 50% off the cover charge for additional eligible specialty dinners.

    This is a discount on additional meals, not unlimited included dining. Add-ons, beverages and applicable gratuities or service charges remain extra; children 12 and under have separate dining terms.

  5. Prepaid daily service charges

    The standard daily crew service charges are included for guests receiving Plus.

    These are separate from bar or beverage charges, specialty-dining gratuities, spa services and other optional charges.

Your Free at Sea benefits continue

You keep the base package’s dining meals and shore-excursion credit. Plus does not add another $50 credit for Guest 2.

Before you upgrade

  • Eligible adults in guest positions 1–8 can receive Plus. Children in positions 1–2 have a modified package and price; younger children and guests 3–8 under 21 have different eligibility.
  • Guests in the same stateroom must choose the same offer. Benefits depend on age, booking market and sailing; some components exclude two-night cruises.
