About This Cruise
The 16 Night Transatlantic from New York to Barcelona: Spain & Azores is a 16-night one-way itinerary aboard Norwegian Escape. You board in New York City and disembark in Barcelona, calling at 11 ports across 7 countries along the way.
In sequence the voyage takes in New York (New York City), Nova Scotia (Halifax, Sydney), Azores (Ponta Delgada), Madeira (Funchal), Gibraltar (Gibraltar), Spain (Motril) and 2 more.
As a one-way sailing you'll fly into New York City and home from Barcelona, so it's worth checking the two gateways before you book.
