By letter of the contract of carraige they aqre not required to do anything. As a matter of customer satisfaction, they may. Certainly in Hawaii where the flights are cheap and walk up fares are the norm, it is not an expensive proposition for NCL. I doubt they woudl have done it for a Med sailing or a Caribbean one.

I booked a cruise on NCL to Hawaii our flight was late into Honolulu so they put us up in a hotel for the night then flew us to Kauai the next day to get to the ship. We did not have insurance. Just my two cents. Jan Murdoch Sam that’s not true.

The cruise line will not fly you to the first port of call to catch up at their expense. The whole thing is about insurance. If you buy insurance, they will reimburse you (in most cases) getting you to the first port of call, whether it's your air or theirs. The cruise line never pays for it...not without insurance...
