MIAMI – Norwegian Cruise Line has been named “Caribbean’s Leading Cruise Line” by the World Travel Awards.
The 20th annual awards, held on September 14 in Antigua, bestow the world’s top travel companies with honors for outstanding products and services and are voted on by travel professionals and consumers from around the globe.
