WATCH: Travel Weekly’s tour of Norwegian Spirit as it hosts TIME community

This week, we joined the team at Norwegian Cruise Line (NCL) for an exclusive look around Norwegian Spirit and its incredible facilities.

We met with Angela Middleton, director of field sales (AU/NZ), Norwegian Cruise Line and the host of this week’s TIME event, who gave us a private tour of the ship and some inside info about cruising with NCL.

NCL hosted more than 30 members of the Travel Industry Mentor Experience Community (TIME) on board Norwegian Spirit during her Sydney visit as part of the brand’s ongoing partnership and support of the TIME program.

Highlighting just one of the benefits of being part of the TIME community, guests were treated to a ship tour followed by alfresco cocktails with the city skyline and Harbour Bridge as the backdrop before proceeding to the elegant Windows Restaurant to continue networking over a leisurely three-course lunch.

“The TIME program is so worthwhile and not only continues to attract an increasing number of industry participants, but several members of our team have also completed the program and continue to be involved,” said the host of the event, Angela Middleton, director of field sales (AU/NZ), Norwegian Cruise Line,

“As part of our ongoing partnership with TIME we are thrilled to be able to offer a scholarship program in both Australia and New Zealand.

“We will shortly announce our NZ scholarship winner with Australia set to follow in the coming months.”
