Hats off to the selfless educators across North America who continue to inspire and shape young minds! Norwegian Cruise Line just announced the 20 lucky winners of their fourth annual “Norwegian’s Giving Joy” contest, a heartfelt recognition program celebrating the dedication and hard work of teachers.
This year’s winners aren’t just getting a shiny certificate – they’ll each embark on a seven-day voyage for two, free of charge, on itineraries sailing through 2024. This treat, sponsored by NCL and supported by their beverage partner Coca-Cola, will see them jetting off from various points within the U.S. and Canada. The icing on the cake? A complimentary virtual training session offered by the Guy Harvey Foundation, where the teachers will dive into a trove of K-12 education resources centered around Dr. Harvey’s spellbinding marine art.
Now, here’s where the adventure really kicks up a notch. Among these 20 winners, three grand champions will be awarded an exclusive invitation to the four-day christening voyage of the Norwegian Viva – NCL’s newest gem in their Prima Class fleet, making her grand debut in August 2023. These lucky educators will not only witness the christening of this magnificent vessel in Miami come November 28, 2023, but also have the chance to immerse themselves in exclusive performances from top Latin entertainers. Picture Luis Fonsi, five-time Latin Grammy winner and Godfather of Norwegian Viva, or the ever-energetic Paulina Rubio, The Queen of Latin Pop, gracing the stage.
What’s a better way to savor this experience than aboard the Norwegian Viva itself? As part of NCL’s groundbreaking Prima Class, this vessel is designed to provide the ultimate guest experience. Visitors can look forward to world-class cuisine, spacious interiors, and thrilling onboard activities, such as the three-level Viva Speedway racetrack. To top it off, the ship boasts the Indulge Food Hall with 11 unique eateries, the fastest slides at sea – The Drop and Rush, and the sustainable Metropolitan Bar, an industry-exclusive feature. With a lineup of itineraries encompassing the picturesque Greek Isles and the captivating Mediterranean before settling in San Juan, Puerto Rico for a series of Caribbean adventures, the Norwegian Viva is truly a treat to all who step aboard. So, here’s to the educators who won this well-deserved vacation – enjoy the journey!
