Pre-Cruise Details

Guests flying into the Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL) should plan to have flights arrive by 11am on February 13th and depart at 1pm or later on February 17th.
Does Premier have a recommended hotel or transfer company?
We will have a block of hotel rooms for the night of February 12th available at a discount rate. For a nominal fee, we will have bus transfers available from the hotel and airport to the port, and back from the port to the airport. More information about this later.
What about Shore Excursions at Grand Bahama Island and Great Stirrup Cay?
You may choose from a variety of shore excursions at all of our beautiful ports of call! If you would like to purchase a shore excursion package through NCL, we recommend that you reserve your excursion on-line before the cruise at www.ncl.com. Your credit card will not be charged until we are onboard the ship. Please note that you will not be able to reserve shore excursions until you receive your reservation number approximately three weeks before we sail. You may also register for a shore excursion onboard after boarding the ship. These excursions are optional.
Please remember to allow yourself enough time to get back to the ship before our scheduled departure. The ship’s time will remain on Eastern time throughout the sailing. Cell phones may reset to local time if we sail outside of the Eastern time zone, which could make you an hour late if you rely on them. The ship will not wait for late guests.
What is the suggested time to arrive in Miami, FL?
Guests will be able to embark on the Norwegian Sky at approximately 12:00 pm on Monday, February 13th. Lunch will be served on Deck 11 in the Garden Café. Please allow for any travel delays. All guests will need to be on board the ship by 3:00 pm. It will be the responsibility of each guest to arrive and register on time. Premier Christian Cruises is not responsible for delayed flights or arrivals to the Port Terminal. *
Does Premier recommend Travel/Cancellation Insurance?
Premier Christian Cruises has confirmed Travel Guard as our official travel insurance provider. If you’ve not already purchased travel insurance, you still have time to choose a plan with Travel Guard. Please call your Cruise Consultant to find out more about the many benefits of travel insurance from Travel Guard.
Can I bring a radio on board?
Yes. You are welcome to bring radios, iPods, etc. for your private enjoyment. However, for the comfort of other guests, we request that headphones or ear pieces be used in public areas.
What should I pack?
Casual attire is the order of the day, both on board and ashore. Daytime, it's basically all fine since we know you're probably headed to the pool or out for a fun Shore Excursion. Casual shorts, jeans, tops and sundresses are welcome everywhere. You can even wear your swimsuit to the poolside grill or the buffet.
Resort casual dress gets you into every venue at night too. Some people like to add a jacket, or when celebrating a special occasion, get all decked out. This too is welcome everywhere. And if you're tired from a long fun day and just want to wear shorts; our buffet is the place for a casual dinner. Some people prefer nice jeans. They're welcome in many of our restaurants as well, but not in all.
Since all suitcases are collected the night before we return home, don't forget to bring an overnight bag packed with a change of clothes, prescriptions and need-to-have items.
Where can I find directions to the port and information about parking?

Do I need to bring my own towels?
Towels are supplied for each guest in your stateroom. Towels are also available for all guests on the pool deck. You will need to check out your towels on the pool deck.
