Norwegian Getaway will include some of the popular family events, shows and activities that guests enjoy on Norwegian Jewel, Norwegian Gem, Norwegian Epic and soon Norwegian Breakaway, including “Name that Game” an exciting brand-new experience that will debut on Norwegian Breakaway.


Norwegian Getaway will be the fifth Norwegian ship to offer Nickelodeon experiences, and will offer the latest in Nickelodeon activities and events that kids of all ages will enjoy. Following its premier on Norwegian Breakaway, Norwegian Getaway will offer families the opportunity to experience the all-new “Name that Game,” an exciting combination of trivia, speed, skill and slime, where participants will hit the buzzer, race the clock and get extreme as they experience the best of Nickelodeon’s famous game shows live on one stage. Norwegian Getaway will also feature the popular Nickelodeon Pajama Jam, where kids have the opportunity to enjoy an action-packed breakfast experience with their favorite Nickelodeon Characters; Dora’s Dance Party, where kids will have the chance to sing and dance to their favorite songs with Dora the Explorer and Team Nick; Nickelodeon Character Meet and Greets; Story Time with Dora; and Nickelodeon Arts and Crafts.

The area will include a kid-sized pool and slide, along with multiple water features that squirt and shower guests with delight.

Nickelodeon characters and themed activities will also be featured in Splash Academy, the ship’s youth area offering merriment for kids ages three to 12. Like her sistership, Norwegian Breakaway, Norwegian Getaway features a centrally-located Splash Academy complex that spans two decks, 12 and 13. It is also adjacent and easily accessible to the ship’s family-friendly staterooms. The reception area, located on Deck 12, is in closen proximity to the forward elevators. As parents enter, they will utilize Norwegian’s e-Youth tablet-based electronic registration which allows them to swipe their keycard and input a password to sign in their children.

Norwegian Getaway’s sister ship, Norwegian Breakaway, will begin sailing from her year-round home port of New York City in May 2013.


To celebrate the excitement of Nickelodeon’s presence on board Norwegian’s newest ships and to give families to get a taste of what it means to cruise like a Norwegian, Norwegian Cruise Line, in partnership with Nickelodeon, is hosting a party in New York City. Norwegian invites families and kids of all ages to join them in Grand Central Terminal’s Vanderbilt Hall on Saturday, April 27, 2013 for a day of family fun.
