Norwegian Cruise Line Tees Up Golf Bermuda Program

Norwegian Cruise Line (NCL), the official cruise line of the PGA TOUR and Champions Tour, has launched a new Golf Bermuda program, giving guests more options for hitting the links in Bermuda, where there are more golf courses per square mile than anywhere in the world.

The comprehensive program offers guests advanced tee time bookings; Callaway rental clubs; transportation to and from the course; and assistance with planning golf tournaments.

“Based on the popularity of the NCL America Golf Hawai’i program, we decided to enhance our current Bermuda golf offerings to make it easier and more convenient for our guests to experience the island’s vast array of world-class courses,” said Scott Rogers, NCL’s senior vice president of sales and marketing. “NCL’s Golf Bermuda provides guests the resources to enjoy golf the Freestyle Cruising way: more options for whenever and wherever they want to play.”

This fall, the 25th annual PGA Grand Slam of Golf, the world’s most exclusive golf tournament, will be held in Bermuda on October 16 and17, hosted by the Bermuda Department of Tourism, Mid Ocean Golf Club and the Fairmont Southampton Hotel.

In 2008, NCL will offer the largest deployment to Bermuda in the company’s history with itineraries from five East Coast cities.
