2027 NYC Cruises: Sailing from New York in Every Season

Four cruise lines tracked by CabinSaver sail 93 cruises from New York City's Manhattan and Brooklyn terminals in 2027: Norwegian Cruise Line (50 sailings), Carnival Cruise Line (24), Princess Cruises (14) and Cunard (5), while Royal Caribbean (76) and Celebrity Cruises (8) sail from Cape Liberty in Bayonne, New Jersey. Norwegian is the largest Manhattan line, mainly on Norwegian Luna (30 sailings) and Norwegian Bliss (18), with 33 Bermuda sailings between late March and mid-October and Caribbean and Bahamas cruises in winter. Inside cabin fares on 2027 Norwegian Cruise Line sailings from New York typically ran approximately $242-370 per night for solo travelers at single occupancy (as of September 2026, subject to change).

Which Cruise Lines Sail from New York in 2027?

Norwegian Cruise Line has the most departures from Manhattan, but it is not the only choice. Three more tracked lines sail from New York City's terminals in 2027, and two more sail from Cape Liberty in Bayonne, New Jersey, about 30-45 minutes from Midtown by car depending on traffic.

The other lines' figures come from CabinSaver's most recent tracking window for each line (90 snapshots for Carnival, Cunard, Royal Caribbean and Celebrity, 78 for Princess), priced for solo travelers at single occupancy, and are subject to change.

• Carnival Cruise Line sails Carnival Firenze from Manhattan from May to November 2027: 10 Bermuda trips, 7 Eastern Caribbean sailings with Grand Turk, Celebration Key and Half Moon Cay, and 5 Canada cruises to Saint John and Halifax.
• Princess Cruises sails Regal Princess on 11 seven-night Canada & New England round trips between August and October, calling at Boston, Halifax, Portland and Saint John, the season covered in our fall foliage guide.
• Cunard sails Queen Mary 2 on a May 19, 2027 crossing to Southampton (also sold through to Hamburg) and an 18-night transatlantic round trip in June, plus two Queen Victoria world voyage segments departing January 19.
• Royal Caribbean sails 76 times from Cape Liberty, mostly Bahamas cruises with Perfect Day at CocoCay on 43, plus Bermuda and Canada sailings. Celebrity Cruises adds 8 Celebrity Silhouette sailings in May and June, 7 of them to Bermuda.

The rest of this guide covers Norwegian Cruise Line's 2027 New York season in detail.

Introduction

New York City is one of the few homeports where a single year's schedule covers a 4-night hop to Bermuda, a 12-night Caribbean loop through six islands, and a 22-night Panama Canal transit ending in Seattle. Across 2027, Norwegian Cruise Line departures from Manhattan are spread over all twelve months, with Norwegian Luna carrying the summer Bermuda program and Norwegian Bliss covering the colder-weather Caribbean and Bahamas runs. This guide walks the whole year rather than a single season, so you can see how the deployment rotates from winter Caribbean into spring and summer Bermuda and back again.

2027 Season Highlights

The 2027 calendar from New York splits cleanly into two operating patterns that hand off to each other in late March and again in late October.

The warm-weather Bermuda program dominates the middle of the year. Bermuda accounts for 33 of the 50 tracked departures, all of them round-trip to the Royal Naval Dockyard. Norwegian Bliss opens the season with 7-night Bermuda sailings on March 21 and March 28, 2027, then Norwegian Luna takes over from April 6 and runs continuously into October. Luna sails 7-night Bermuda itineraries from April through late August, then switches to a 5-night pattern from August 28 through the final tracked Bermuda departure on October 7, 2027.

The cool-weather Caribbean and Bahamas program bookends the year. Norwegian Bliss operates 12-night Caribbean round-trips from New York in January, February, March, November and December 2027, calling at Philipsburg, St. Thomas, Basseterre, San Juan, Puerto Plata and Tortola. Between those, Bliss runs 8-night Bahamas itineraries that pair Orlando (Port Canaveral) with Great Stirrup Cay and Nassau.

Two repositioning standouts sit in April. On April 9, 2027, Norwegian Bliss offers both a 19-night Panama Canal voyage from New York to San Francisco and a 22-night version continuing to Seattle, each transiting the Canal via Colón and calling at Acapulco, Puerto Quetzal, Cartagena and Puntarenas. Four days later, on April 13, 2027, Norwegian Gem departs New York on a 19-night transatlantic crossing to Venice (Ravenna) by way of Madeira, Gibraltar, Cadiz, Barcelona, Livorno and Split.

One scheduling note worth planning around: the tracked data shows no New York departures between October 12 and November 3, 2027, as the fleet repositions between the Bermuda and Caribbean programs.

Why Choose a Round-Trip Cruise from New York?

Round-trip cruises from New York remove the flight from the equation for a large share of the Northeast. Of the 50 tracked 2027 departures, 46 return to New York, so you can drive in, park, sail and drive home without a connecting airport on either end. That matters most on the shorter Bermuda itineraries, where a 4-night or 5-night sailing loses much of its appeal if you have to build two travel days around it.

The New York deployment also gives you an unusually wide duration ladder from one terminal. In 2027 you can pick a 4-night Bermuda sample on Norwegian Luna departing April 6, a 7-night Bermuda week, an 8-night Bahamas run, a 12-night Caribbean itinerary hitting six islands, or a three-week Panama Canal repositioning voyage, all boarding in Manhattan.

Compare sailings and dates in our cruise deal finder before you commit to a week.

Because the terminal sits on Manhattan's West Side, a pre-cruise or post-cruise night in the city is genuinely practical rather than an add-on chore. Norwegian sailings from New York typically use the Manhattan Cruise Terminal, though terminal assignments change between seasons; always verify your terminal and your recommended arrival time directly with Norwegian Cruise Line.

For solo travelers, the New York schedule is notable for studio cabin availability: 49 of the 50 tracked 2027 departures listed studio pricing, and those studios typically ran approximately $206-301 per night at single occupancy (subject to change, as of August 2026), based on CabinSaver's own fare tracking.

Destination Breakdown

Here is how Norwegian Cruise Line's 50 New York departures in 2027 compare by destination. Rows follow the breakdown below, which counts 8 dedicated Caribbean sailings (a ninth also carries another destination tag).

Bermuda (33 sailings)

Bermuda is the backbone of the New York season, running from March 21 through October 7, 2027. Every tracked Bermuda sailing is a round-trip to the Royal Naval Dockyard, with the ship typically berthed there for an extended multi-day stay rather than a single port day. Durations are 4 nights (1 departure), 5 nights (10) and 7 nights (22). Norwegian Luna operates 30 of these; Norwegian Bliss covers the two March openers and a 5-night departure on April 4, 2027.

Pricing tracks the calendar closely. Among 7-night Bermuda departures, inside cabin fares ranged from approximately $238 per night on the March 28, 2027 sailing to approximately $454 per night on July 3, 2027 for solo travelers at single occupancy (subject to change, as of August 2026). Shoulder weeks in late March, April and September sat at the lower end of that band.

Caribbean (8 dedicated sailings)

The Caribbean itineraries are the long ones. Norwegian Bliss runs a 12-night round-trip from New York on January 4, February 1, March 1, November 8, November 28, December 10 and December 22, 2027, calling at Philipsburg (St. Maarten), St. Thomas, Basseterre (St. Kitts), San Juan, Puerto Plata (Dominican Republic) and Tortola. Norwegian Prima adds a one-way 10-night sailing on November 3, 2027 from New York to San Juan that unusually pairs Bermuda with Barbados, Antigua and St. Kitts.

These 12-night sailings produced the lowest per-night figures in the whole 2027 New York set: the December 10, 2027 departure was tracked at approximately $171 per night for an inside cabin at single occupancy, the low end of the observation window (subject to change, as of August 2026). The December 22, 2027 holiday departure of the same itinerary tracked meaningfully higher.

Bahamas (6 sailings)

Norwegian Bliss operates 8-night Bahamas round-trips on January 16, January 24, February 13, February 21, March 13 and November 20, 2027. All six follow the same pattern: Orlando (Port Canaveral), Great Stirrup Cay and Nassau. The Port Canaveral call makes these itineraries function as a combined Florida-and-Bahamas trip rather than a pure island run.

Panama Canal and Transatlantic (3 sailings)

Three one-way voyages leave New York in April 2027. Norwegian Bliss departs April 9 on both a 19-night Panama Canal run to San Francisco and a 22-night version to Seattle, adding Victoria, British Columbia. Norwegian Gem departs April 13 on a 19-night transatlantic crossing to Venice (Ravenna), with calls including Funchal (Madeira), Gibraltar, Seville (Cadiz), Motril, Barcelona, Villefranche, Livorno, Civitavecchia and Split. These require one-way air on the return, so factor that into your planning.

Month-by-Month New York Cruise Calendar for 2027

January 2027

The year opens with Norwegian Bliss working the warm-weather routes. A 12-night Caribbean round-trip departs January 4, 2027 and returns January 16, covering six islands including St. Maarten and Tortola. Bliss then turns around the same day for an 8-night Bahamas itinerary on January 16, followed by another on January 24. January and February are the deepest winter weeks in the Northeast, which is exactly why the New York deployment points south during them.

Ships: Norwegian Bliss. Destinations: Caribbean, Bahamas. Duration: 8-12 nights.

February 2027

Three departures, all Norwegian Bliss. The 12-night Caribbean round-trip repeats on February 1, 2027, and 8-night Bahamas sailings follow on February 13 and February 21. The February 13 departure covers the Presidents' Day school break week, and tracked inside fares for it ran higher per night than the two January Bahamas sailings on the same itinerary.

Ships: Norwegian Bliss. Destinations: Caribbean, Bahamas. Duration: 8-12 nights.

March 2027

March is the handover month. Norwegian Bliss sails the last 12-night Caribbean round-trip of the winter on March 1, 2027 and the final 8-night Bahamas run on March 13, then opens the Bermuda season with 7-night round-trips on March 21 and March 28. Bermuda in late March is cooler than midsummer, and those two sailings were tracked at the lowest per-night inside fares of any 7-night Bermuda departure in the 2027 set.

Ships: Norwegian Bliss. Destinations: Caribbean, Bahamas, Bermuda. Duration: 7-12 nights.

April 2027

The busiest month of the year with eight departures. Norwegian Bliss sails a 5-night Bermuda run on April 4, 2027 before leaving the East Coast on April 9 for its Panama Canal repositioning voyages to San Francisco (19 nights) and Seattle (22 nights). Norwegian Luna arrives with a 4-night Bermuda sampler on April 6, the shortest sailing of the year from New York, then settles into weekly 7-night Bermuda departures on April 10, April 17 and April 24. Norwegian Gem departs April 13 on the 19-night transatlantic crossing to Venice (Ravenna).

Ships: Norwegian Luna, Norwegian Bliss, Norwegian Gem. Destinations: Bermuda, Panama Canal, Transatlantic. Duration: 4-22 nights.

May 2027

Norwegian Luna settles into a clean weekly rhythm with 7-night Bermuda round-trips on May 1, May 8, May 15, May 22 and May 29, 2027. May is a shoulder month for Bermuda: the water is warming but school is still in session for most of it, and tracked inside fares for these five departures sat below the June and July equivalents on the identical itinerary.

Ships: Norwegian Luna. Destinations: Bermuda. Duration: 7 nights.

June 2027

Four 7-night Bermuda departures on Norwegian Luna: June 5, June 12, June 19 and June 26, 2027. Fares step up noticeably as school holidays begin, with the June 12 departure tracked among the higher per-night inside figures of the spring.

Ships: Norwegian Luna. Destinations: Bermuda. Duration: 7 nights.

July 2027

Five 7-night Bermuda departures on Norwegian Luna: July 3, July 10, July 17, July 24 and July 31, 2027. The July 3 sailing spans the Independence Day holiday and was tracked at the highest per-night inside fare of any 2027 New York departure, at approximately $454 per night for solo travelers at single occupancy (subject to change, as of August 2026). If your dates are flexible, the mid-July departures were tracked lower.

Ships: Norwegian Luna. Destinations: Bermuda. Duration: 7 nights.

August 2027

Norwegian Luna continues weekly 7-night Bermuda round-trips on August 7, August 14 and August 21, 2027, then switches the program to a 5-night pattern beginning August 28. That switch is the single most useful thing to know about the back half of the season: from late August onward, Bermuda from New York becomes a long-weekend-scale trip rather than a full week.

Ships: Norwegian Luna. Destinations: Bermuda. Duration: 5-7 nights.

September 2027

The busiest Bermuda month with six 5-night Norwegian Luna departures: September 2, September 7, September 12, September 17, September 22 and September 27, 2027. Once the Labor Day weekend passes, tracked inside fares dropped: the September 7 through September 22 departures were among the lower-priced 5-night Bermuda sailings of the year. Note that September falls inside Atlantic hurricane season, so itinerary changes are possible; verify current conditions and any schedule updates with Norwegian Cruise Line.

Ships: Norwegian Luna. Destinations: Bermuda. Duration: 5 nights.

October 2027

The Bermuda season closes with two 5-night Norwegian Luna departures, on October 2 and October 7, 2027. After that the tracked schedule goes quiet from New York until November 3, so October 7 is the last chance to sail from Manhattan before the autumn gap.

Ships: Norwegian Luna. Destinations: Bermuda. Duration: 5 nights.

November 2027

New York restarts with four departures. Norwegian Prima sails a one-way 10-night Caribbean itinerary to San Juan on November 3, 2027, notable for stopping in Bermuda on the way south before Barbados, Antigua and St. Kitts. Norwegian Bliss returns with a 12-night Caribbean round-trip on November 8, an 8-night Bahamas sailing on November 20 that covers the Thanksgiving week, and another 12-night Caribbean round-trip on November 28.

Ships: Norwegian Prima, Norwegian Bliss. Destinations: Caribbean, Bahamas. Duration: 8-12 nights.

December 2027

Two Norwegian Bliss departures close the year, both 12-night Caribbean round-trips: December 10 and December 22, 2027. The December 10 sailing was tracked at the lowest per-night inside fare in the entire 2027 New York set, while the December 22 departure spans Christmas and New Year and was tracked well above it on an identical itinerary. That contrast between two sailings twelve days apart is the clearest illustration of holiday pricing in the year's data.

Ships: Norwegian Bliss. Destinations: Caribbean. Duration: 12 nights.

Ship Deployment from New York in 2027

• Norwegian Luna - April 6 to October 7, 2027, 30 departures. Operates the entire summer Bermuda program round-trip to the Royal Naval Dockyard, running 7-night itineraries from April through August 21 and 5-night itineraries from August 28 onward. This is the most consistent deployment of any ship in the New York schedule.
• Norwegian Bliss - January 4 to December 22, 2027, 18 departures. Covers the cool-weather program with 12-night Caribbean round-trips and 8-night Bahamas itineraries, plus the two March Bermuda openers, a 5-night Bermuda run on April 4, and the pair of April 9 Panama Canal repositioning voyages to San Francisco and Seattle.
• Norwegian Prima - November 3, 2027, 1 departure. A one-way 10-night Caribbean itinerary from New York to San Juan that combines a Bermuda call with Barbados, Antigua, St. Kitts, St. Maarten, St. Thomas and Tortola.
• Norwegian Gem - April 13, 2027, 1 departure. A 19-night transatlantic crossing from New York to Venice (Ravenna) with calls in Madeira, Gibraltar, Spain, France, Italy and Croatia.

Planning Tips for New York Departures

• Decide on 5 nights versus 7 nights before you shop dates. The 2027 Bermuda program changes length on August 28, so a September traveler is choosing between 5-night Norwegian Luna sailings, while a June traveler only has the 7-night option. Filtering by duration first will save you scrolling past itineraries that cannot work for your time off.
• Plan parking and ground transport in advance. The Manhattan Cruise Terminal sits on the West Side with garage parking on site, and rates and availability change; confirm current parking arrangements with the terminal operator and consider a car service if you are coming from an outer borough or New Jersey on a Saturday turnaround.
• Build in a buffer for the long itineraries. The April 9 Panama Canal voyages end in San Francisco and Seattle, and the April 13 crossing ends in Venice (Ravenna), so you will need one-way air on the return. Book that leg with flexible fare rules where you can, since arrival ports and times can shift.
• Verify documentation early for the multi-country itineraries. The 12-night Caribbean round-trip calls in six territories across four jurisdictions, and the transatlantic crossing touches five countries. A valid passport book is typically required for cruise travel (passport cards are generally not sufficient), and requirements vary by itinerary and citizenship. Always verify current documentation requirements with Norwegian Cruise Line and official government travel advisories before your trip.
• Watch the late-October gap. There are no tracked New York departures between October 12 and November 3, 2027. If you were counting on a late-October sailing from Manhattan, plan around either the October 7 Bermuda departure or the November 3 Norwegian Prima itinerary.
• Check the arrival time your cruise line specifies. Check-in windows differ by ship and sailing, and New York turnarounds can be busy. Confirm your recommended arrival time directly with Norwegian Cruise Line rather than assuming last season's pattern still applies.

How to Find the Best Deals on New York Cruises

Norwegian Cruise Line pricing fluctuates based on demand, booking time, and availability. Here's how to time your booking:

• Book early - Promotional fares are often available 12-18 months in advance, which for the 2027 New York season means the window is open now.
• Monitor price drops - Fares change weekly. Across CabinSaver's tracking window for these 50 sailings, the gap between each sailing's lowest and highest recorded inside fare had a median of roughly 31 percent, and 12 of the 50 were sitting at or near their tracked low as of August 2026. Set up deal alerts to track your preferred sailings.
• Consider shoulder season - For Bermuda, late March, April, May and the post-Labor Day weeks of September and early October were tracked at lower per-night figures than late June through early August on the same itineraries.
• Look at length, not just total fare - The 12-night Caribbean round-trips produced the lowest per-night figures of the 2027 New York schedule, so a longer sailing can cost less per night than a short one even though the total is higher.
• Avoid the fixed holiday weeks if you can flex - The July 3 Bermuda departure and the December 22 Caribbean departure were the two clearest holiday premiums in the 2027 data.

Our deal finder shows real-time pricing across all 50 departures, helping you compare fares for your preferred dates and destinations.

Between a 4-night Bermuda sampler, weekly summer crossings to the Royal Naval Dockyard, 8-night Bahamas runs, six-island Caribbean loops and three-week repositioning voyages through the Panama Canal, New York offers more variety in 2027 than almost any other homeport on the East Coast.
