MS The World — 7-Night Norwegian Fjords

Loading this sailing…

Before you sail

What the fare covers, what it doesn't, and how this itinerary actually runs.

3 sea days

The pool loungers and the shaded spots go early on a sea day — by eight in the morning on a full ship, and this one carries 200 guests. Reserving one and leaving it is against the rules on most lines and crew do clear them, so send someone early rather than at ten.

This one earns the balcony

3 of 7 nights are at sea, so you will actually be in the cabin in daylight. Roughly $1,950 more per person here — the one upgrade worth arguing about on a sea-day-heavy sailing.

Day one and the last day are half-days

A 7-night cruise is really 6 full days. Boarding runs into the afternoon and you are off the ship early on the last morning.

Accommodation in your chosen stateroom.Most meals in the main dining rooms and buffet venues.A selection of on-board entertainment, such as shows and live music.Access to most recreational facilities, including pools and fitness centers.Certain children's programming and youth clubs.

The drinks package

A main drinks package typically costs around $70-90 USD per person, per day, including an automatic service charge.

Break-even: This package usually pays for itself after about 5-7 alcoholic drinks, premium coffees, or fresh juices each day.

This package suits those who enjoy multiple alcoholic or specialty non-alcoholic drinks daily; otherwise, paying à la carte might be more economical.

Gratuities: An automatic daily service charge, typically around $16-20 USD per person, per day, is added to your account. Suite guests might pay a slightly higher rate. These charges can often be prepaid before sailing or adjusted on board, usually at guest services.
Wifi: Internet connectivity packages usually range from about $10-30 USD per day, depending on the speed and number of devices. A basic tier might support messaging and email but not streaming video or large downloads.

Costs that surprise people

Specialty Dining. Restaurants beyond the main dining rooms and buffets usually incur an extra cover charge, often about $35-65 USD per person.
Shore Excursions. Guided tours and activities booked through the cruise line at port usually cost extra, with prices varying widely.
Spa Treatments. Massages, facials, and other services at the onboard spa are not included in the fare and carry additional charges.
Photo Packages. Professional photos taken by the ship's photographers are available for purchase, usually as individual prints or package deals.
Room Service After Hours. While basic room service might be included during the day, late-night orders often have a small service charge, typically about $5-10 USD.
Casino and Arcade. Gambling in the casino and games in the arcade are always an additional expense, separate from your cruise fare.

Ways to spend less

Book Packages Pre-Cruise. Drinks, wifi, and specialty dining packages are often available at a slightly lower rate if purchased online before you sail, compared to onboard prices.
Eat at Included Venues. Utilize the main dining rooms, buffets, and any complimentary casual eateries to avoid specialty dining costs.
