The Norwegian Sun sailed out of Port Canaveral on in its inaugural voyage to Havana, Cuba, on Monday.
Fresh out of dry dock enhancement, Norwegian Sun returned to Port Canaveral to begin her homeport summer 2018 sailing season, according to a statement. The ship will homeport at Terminal 10, which saw a recent $35 million renovation.
The new Norwegian Cruise Line sailing options -- four-night itinerary to Havana, Cuba and Key West a three-night itinerary to the Bahamas -- marks the first time a homeported cruise ship has sailed from Port Canaveral to Cuba.
"Port Canaveral was the ideal location to offer our guests a value-rich on-board experience and exciting action-packed ports-of-call, including an overnight call in Havana, Cuba," said Andy Stuart, president and chief executive officer for Norwegian Cruise Line.
Norwegian Sun's four-day cruise to Cuba will depart Port Canaveral each Monday and features a call on Key West and an overnight stay in Havana, returning to Port Canaveral each Friday.
