NORWEGIAN CRUISE LINE INTRODUCES THE SELL AND SAIL AMERICA TIC-TAC-TOE' PROMOTION

NCL Offers New Travel Agent Incentive to Support Homeland Cruising Program

MIAMI, January 21, 2002- Norwegian Cruise Line (NCL) has developed a travel agent incentive tic-tac-toe game to support the company's new Homeland Cruising program, which has regularly scheduled round-trip seven-day cruises from more US and Canadian ports than any other cruise line. Agents can win fun NCL logo prizes, $500 and be entered into a contest to win the grand prize of a complimentary cruise for two on the brand new Norwegian Star in one of the largest suites afloat -- the magnificent Garden Villas.

The game card looks similar to a tic-tac-toe board and agents win prizes by selling the cruises in each square. Agents who sell enough cruises to fill in any one row down, across or diagonally, just like tic-tac-toe, receive an NCL beach bag and towel. Agents who can fill in any two rows down, across or diagonally receive an NCL logo jacket. Agents who fill in the full card receive an NCL logo bathrobe and entry to win one of 10 $500 cash prizes. All agents awarded prizes will also be entered into a grand prize drawing for a one-week cruise in Hawaii onboard Norwegian Star in one of the 5,300 square foot Garden Villas. Sailings must be booked and deposited by March 31, 2002 and voyages must be taken by December 31, 2002.

"The Sell and Sail America Tic-Tac-Toe promotion provides a fun and rewarding way for agents to sell cruises while learning about our new Homeland Cruising program, which has become the cornerstone for our 2002 fleet deployment," said Andy Stuart, senior vice president of sales and marketing.

The cash prizes and Garden Villa drawings will be held the first week of January 2003. Each travel agent is limited to five claimed prizes for each type of reward. Travel agencies are limited to 50 claimed prizes for each type of reward.

NCL's new Homeland Cruising program offers passengers regularly-scheduled, seven-day, round-trip cruises from more ports in the United States and Canada than any other cruise line. Ships sail round-trip from eight U.S. and Canadian ports including: Miami, Fla.; Seattle, Wash.; Vancouver, B.C., Canada; San Juan, Puerto Rico; Boston, Mass.; New York, N.Y; and Honolulu, Oahu and Lahaina, Maui, HI. In addition, NCL offers operations from Los Angeles and Montreal on one-way cruises.

Miami-based Norwegian Cruise Line is an international cruise company and industry innovator that currently operates a fleet of nine ships sailing to more than 140 ports around the world. NCL took delivery of its two newest ships Norwegian Sun, August 2001 and Norwegian Star, October 2001. NCL is currently building Norwegian Dawn, a 2,200-passenger sister ship to Norwegian Star (delivery in December 2002).
