The Best Latitudes Rewards Perks

For those who don’t travel in The Haven, the discounts on the beverage package and internet are particularly helpful, plus priority embarkation and disembarkation and tender tickets, concierge service, and chocolate-covered strawberries in their stateroom. (For reference, Haven guests get all these benefits with their suite.)

We are newly at the Sapphire level, so we’ve particularly enjoyed priority embarkation, free laundry service, discounts on shore excursions, and chocolate-covered strawberries in our stateroom. We’ve also taken advantage of booking specialty dinners at 125 days before the sailing, the specialty dinners for two, the Wines Around the World tasting, and the Behind the Scenes ship tour.

On our next cruise, our first as Sapphire, we’re hoping to be able to schedule the dinner with officers perk, which should be nice.

Point Accumulation

To progress through the tiers of the NCL Latitudes Rewards program, you earn Latitudes Rewards points based on the number of nights you sail with NCL. The more nights you accumulate, the higher your tier status.

Also, certain stateroom categories and Haven and Suite bookings provide bonus points, accelerating your progress within the program:

• Earn 1 point per night of your cruise
• Earn 1 additional point per night for booking a suite or The Haven
• Earn 1 additional point per night for booking a Latitudes Rewards Insider Offer

So, for a seven-night cruise in a balcony cabin, you would earn 7 points. For a seven-night cruise in a balcony cabin with an NCL Latitudes Rewards Insider offer of one extra point per night, you would earn 14 points. And for a Haven suite with a Latitudes Rewards Insider offer, you would earn 21 points for a seven-night cruise. 

Latitudes Rewards Insider Offers

As a Latitudes Rewards member, you’ll receive exclusive access to Latitudes Rewards Insider Offers, which include reduced fares, onboard credit, and possibly extra tier points per night. These offers are designed to give loyal guests the opportunity to experience Norwegian Cruise Line’s destinations and ships at exceptional value.

How to Get the Benefits

Some of the benefits will come to you automatically when you place an order, like the package discounts; some will come in the form of a coupon, like free laundry or specialty dinners; some will come in the form of an invitation, such as the exclusive cocktail parties; and others you will need to ask for, such as priority embarkation and disembarkation, Behind the Scenes tour, wine tasting, and signature tier pins.

Enjoying the Benefits

To make the most of your Latitudes Rewards membership, don’t forget to provide your Latitudes number when booking your cruises with NCL. This ensures that your points are accurately tracked and your tier benefits are applied to your reservation. Upon boarding, you’ll receive a Latitudes Rewards keycard, which helps identify your tier status and grants you access to exclusive perks onboard.

If you’re eager to enhance your Latitudes Rewards membership and progress through the tiers, consider booking future cruises with Norwegian Cruise Line. Not only will you continue to accumulate points, but NCL often offers double- or triple-point promotions on select sailings, helping you reach higher tiers more quickly.
