In honor of Teacher Appreciation Week (May 5-9), Norwegian
Cruise Line is awarding stellar educators a chance to win a free cruise
aboard the Norwegian Luna, slated for its debut in spring 2026.
From May 5 to May 31, the public can nominate a
teacher for an award by submitting heartfelt stories on how their favorite teacher
is making a lasting impact on the lives of students and their community; being
recognized by their peers for their passion and dedication to the world of
education; and lastly on their adaptability to overcome challenges and find
creative and novel approaches to further the education of their students.
The top 20 ranking teachers selected by Norwegian’s Giving
Joy panel will be rewarded with a three or four-day cruise for two on the Norwegian
Aqua’s sister ship. The top three scoring educators, named Grand Prize winners,
will receive an exclusive invitation to the Norwegian Luna’s three-day
christening voyage sailing from Miami.
“At NCL we are all about delivering exceptional experiences,
including honoring communities who make a difference in the world, such as
teachers,” said David J. Herrera, President of Norwegian Cruise Line in a statement.
He added, “We’re so proud to celebrate six years of our
Norwegian’s Giving Joy program and continuing to shine a light on incredible
teachers who are shaping our future generation. This year, we’re excited to
reward 20 exceptional teachers with an
unforgettable vacation with MORE ways to relax and explore on board one of
our many spectacular NCL ships.”
Norwegian's Giving Joy campaign has received nearly 61,000
teacher nominations awarded over 270 educators with a vacation of a lifetime and
donated over $515,000 to teachers and their school with the support from NCL's
valued partners since its launch in 2019.
