Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings is strategically enhancing its onboard revenue streams by partnering with Diamonds International across its luxury brands Oceania Cruises and Regent Seven Seas Cruises. This retail expansion introduces premium brands like Breitling, Ferragamo, Tumi, and Chanel to the fleet, with initial implementation on the new Oceania Allura and planned for Seven Seas Mariner following its upcoming refurbishment.
This partnership represents a calculated move to increase the per-passenger spending potential aboard NCLH's luxury vessels.
