2025 Adventure Seekers Cruise FAQs

What are the dates of the trip?

Our Adventure Seekers Reunion Plus One trip will be held Saturday, June 21 to Saturday June 28.

Where are we staying?

The Norweigan Aqua sails from Port Canaveral, Florida.

Where is the cruise going?

Departing from Orlando/Port Canaveral, the Norweigan Aqua will be visiting 4 beautiful ports-of-call: Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic; St. Thomas, US Virgin Islands; Tortola, British Virgin Islands; and Great Stirrup Cay, Bahamas.

How do I get to Port Canaveral?

Here is a PDF of really great information about getting to and around Port Canaveral.

Where is the Facebook Page?

The page is only for people booked on the cruise. The link is available after you fill out the WSA Cruise Questionnaire. If you still can't find it, you can request to join by going here.

Are there special guidelines for the trip regarding vaccinations and masks?

Please refer to the Norweigan Cruise Line website for guidelines.

What does it mean that this trip is "plus one"?

This trip is a Plus One trip - each individual must be accompanied by at least one adult chaperone (parent/caretaker, adult sibling, staff, etc). You and/or your chaperone will be responsible for organizing travel, transportation, hotel booking, coordinating most activities while in Orlando, oversight, etc. This trip will look more like a joint vacation with your WS family. There will be no exceptions for unaccompanied travelers.

Can an adult chaperone more than one Adventure Seeker?

Yes, but the caretaker must be responsible for those individuals at all times during the weekend. We do not encourage one adult to take responsibility for more than two attendees.

Will the group be doing activities together?

We will be working with the cruise ship to arrange an activity for the group on one of the evenings. The rest of the time is open for you to plan the activities you'd like.

Do you know any cool things to do on the ship?

There are going to be SO MANY cool things to do on the ship. Since the Aqua is a new ship, we are still learning about the many offerings that will be available. We'll continue to keep this updated:

What are the fees?

To reserve your place, you will need to put in a deposit of $250.

Interior room Fare, taxes & port fees = $1,530.67/pp

Balcony room Fare, taxes & port fees = $2,281.71/pp

Is there transportation?

The WSA is not providing transportation.

Are there events/outing that will be just for the Adventure Seekers without their parent/chaperone?

No, we are not planning any excursions separate from your parent/chaperone.

How can we connect with other families that are attending, prior to arrival?

When you hit 'submit' on the WSA Cruise Questionnaire, there's a link to the Official WSA Cruise Facebook group. Click on it, answer the group questions, and connect with your shipmates!

I'd like a little help with boarding and disembarking. Is there information on accessibility?

Yes! Go to this page to learn what NCL can do to help put you at ease.

I need mobility assistance. How can I rent a scooter or wheelchair?

For guests who cannot walk on their own, a wheelchair, scooter or walker may be the primary mobility assistance aid for getting on and off the ship. Norwegian Cruise Line has a limited supply of wheelchairs onboard. In order to accommodate our guests, Norwegian Cruise Line wheelchairs are reserved exclusively for embarkation and disembarkation situations. If you will require regular use of a wheelchair, we strongly recommend that you bring your own wheelchair with you or make rental arrangements with Scootaround. The limited supply of wheelchairs onboard are available for emergency rental arrangements and are on a first come first serve basis.

Wheelchair accessible staterooms are available on all our ships. We recommend you book well in advance as possible as availability is limited. Accessible staterooms offer wider door frames, roll in showers, shower benches, high-rise toilets and handrails in shower and toilet area.

Motorized wheelchairs and scooters are allowed in our accessible staterooms provided that they are powered by gel-cell batteries and the chargers must be adaptable to 110 volts. Should you choose a stateroom that has not been designated as accessible, you will need to bring a collapsible wheelchair, or if you have a motorized wheelchair or scooter, the width must not exceed 26 inches to enter the stateroom door. All scooters and wheelchairs MUST be stored in the stateroom. Due to the safety and escape way requirements established by SOLAS regulations, they cannot be stored in the hallways, stairways, or any other public area. Beach wheelchairs can be rented for use on Norwegian Cruise Line's private island.

Does Norweigan offer travel protection (trip insurance)?

Yes, NCL offers a number of options with their BookSafe Travel Protection Plan. Amber can discuss the options with you and help you decide which might be best for your situation.

What can I do after the cruise before I fly home?

Of course there are many things to do in the Orlando/Port Canaveral area, but one option offered by Norwegian Cruise Lines is to go from the ship to the Kennedy Space Center ending at the airport.

Your bags go with you and are stored securely while you experience this fantastic testament to our exploration of space!
