rtkenmore Posted January 9, 2022 #5 Share Posted January 9, 2022 I’m thinking the big announcement is just the Latitudes changes being announced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timf2001 Posted January 10, 2022 #7 Share Posted January 10, 2022 It looks like the USPS beat NCL to their announcement. This arrived today. Looks virtually identical to Prima. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare ColeThornton Posted January 10, 2022 #8 Share Posted January 10, 2022 Why are they naming the ship after a brand of paper towels? That seems odd. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Middleager Posted January 11, 2022 #10 Share Posted January 11, 2022 I remember Viva Zapata. The Mexican peasant leading the revolt against corrupt king. Will Viva sail to Mexico soon? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreestyleNovice Posted January 11, 2022 #11 Share Posted January 11, 2022 Found some very generic announcement, seems to be the same agency: https://www.classictraveltours.com/promotion-details.aspx?promotionid=42516 https://www.travelleaders.com/travel_specials/promotion.aspx?promotionId=42516&cat=cruise On several sites the Viva pops up in the fleet in booking forms but besides showing the Prima deck plans as Viva without even renaming the Prima venues nothing newsworthy.

Rare craig01020 Posted January 11, 2022 #12 Share Posted January 11, 2022 Norwegian is like our government. They spend millions of $$$ that they don't have. Crazy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will take the bait: Funds for the first ships were long secured before Covid struck. And with Prima being a record breaker for bookings in the total 50 plus years history of NCL, a second ship is very welcome to overcome the post Covid era. Canceling or selling the build would probably have cost a lot more, if possible at all. Besides that the half world is made up of loans and interests/leases, from your neighbors car up to the airplanes you fly to take a cruise.

bluesea777 Posted January 11, 2022 #14 Share Posted January 11, 2022 Why the same hull colours as Prima? Should have different colour palette if they want the design to be the same on all the new prima ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david_sobe Posted January 11, 2022 #15 Share Posted January 11, 2022 When I hear the word Viva, I cant help but hearing Viva Gorditas. Anyone else remember the 1990s? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
littlelulu01 Posted January 11, 2022 #16 Share Posted January 11, 2022 From what my pcc is reporting, pricing about the same for most of the 9 night sailings. The TA isn’t till November 16 out of Rome. The Rome to Venice August 26-September 4 looks appealing as does the subsequent Venice to Athens sailing. Aug 26 ports are: Rome, Naples, Palermo, Valletta, Siracusa, Corfu, Dubrovnik, Split, Koper, Venice. The September 4th is Venice, Ravenna, Split, Dubrovnik, Corfu, santorini, kusadasi, Istanbul, Mykonos, Athens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruise Gopher Posted January 12, 2022 Author #18 Share Posted January 12, 2022 I put a reservation on hold tonight (TA website has bookings open), but the prices are pretty high. I think NCL learned their lesson after they priced Prima relatively low when they first opened up Prima bookings last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oteixeira Posted January 12, 2022 #20 Share Posted January 12, 2022 I just hope this ship means the Prima prices will come down some. Probably just pipe dreaming, good thing I love the away class ships too. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Making me like Encore colors more and more. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
