Port of New Orleans signs 4-year berthing deal with Norwegian Cruise Lines

The Port of New Orleans has signed a four-year berthing deal with Norwegian Cruise Lines that will keep at least one Norwegian ship sailing out of New Orleans through 2018, though three one-year options could extend that date to 2021, port officials said Tuesday. Norwegian, which began operating out of New Orleans in 2003, last month began sailing the 2,340-passenger Norwegian Dawn from the Julia Street Cruise Terminal for seven-day trips to locations like Cozumel, Mexico; Belize City, Belize; and Roatan Bay Islands, Honduras.
