Norwegian Sun Suffers Propulsion Issues, Upcoming Cruise Could Be Impacted
Passengers aboard the Norwegian Sun are dealing with propulsion issues that have already forced itinerary changes, including the cancellation of several ports of call on the ship's current Baltic sailing. According to guests onboard, the mechanical problem has reduced the ship's speed, making it impossible to keep its original schedule.
The good news is that Norwegian Cruise Line says the issue does not affect the safety of the ship, but slower speeds can mean missed ports or shorter visits while repairs are planned.
The bigger question now is what happens next. Norwegian Sun is scheduled to begin another nine-night cruise on Monday, and passengers booked on that sailing will be watching closely for any updates. At this point, there's been no indication that the cruise will be canceled, but itinerary changes remain a possibility if repairs aren't completed in time.
If you're sailing on Norwegian Sun in the coming days, keep an eye on your email and the Norwegian Cruise Line app for the latest information.
