Take a chance on an Epic maiden

Maiden voyages are always popular, but before one is put on sale the cruise line usually knows when it is going to happen and where the ship is going to sail.
Norwegian Cruise Lines are taking an interesting step with the launch of their giant new ship, Norwegian Epic, by opening for bookings without knowing either of those things, or even how much they are going to charge.
The 4,200-passenger ship, 60 per cent bigger than any other vessel in the fleet, has to get from the shipyard in France to Miami, where it will be based from June 17 next year, that much is known. But the exact route, the timing and the fares are still a mystery.
Would-be passengers can put their names down on a waiting list and will be offered priority booking when the details are decided.
