Passengers will be able to take part in Star Trek competitions, parties and events and even mingle with the stars of the show. The crewmembers of the Norwegian Cruise Line will get in the Star Trek spirit too wearing replicas of the multi-colored uniforms from the show.
Themed cruise ships are getting more and more popular. The Walking Dead’s themed cruise is heading out next year and even football star Rob Gronkowski has his own party cruise that will set sail in 2016. So of course one of the biggest Sci-Fi franchises has their very own themed cruise ship too. Trekkies be ready, this is going to be one epic adventure.
