Norwegian Epic will return to Southampton in 2015, five years after its inaugural celebration there in June 2010.
It will operate two Iberian Peninsula sailings to and from the UK port.
A six-night sailing will depart Barcelona on September 20 and arrive in Southampton on September 26, with ports of call including Cartagena, Spain; Granada (Malaga), Spain; and Lisbon, Portugal.
Following a 15-night dry dock in France, Norwegian Epic will embark on a seven-night Iberian Peninsula cruise from Southampton to Barcelona on October 11.
This time, the ship will also visit Vigo in Spain.
Beginning April 2015, Norwegian Epic will homeport year-round in Barcelona, sailing seven-night Western Mediterranean itineraries in the summer season and 10-night Canary Islands and Morocco and six-, 10-, 11- or 12-night Western Mediterranean itineraries during the 2015 and 2016 winter season.
