William Shatner and his Star Trek co-stars have signed up to embark on a fan cruise to mark the franchise's 50th anniversary.

Shatner, who portrayed Captain James T Kirk in the sci-fi series, will be hitting the high seas with other Star Trek favourites from all the TV spin-offs, including Jonathan Frakes, Denise Crosby, Robert Picardo, and James Darren.

During the cruise, fans will be treated to a "totally immersive" Star Trek experience featuring lectures, parties, and competitions with the actors, as well as a concert by the Enterprise Blue Band starring actors Vaughn Armstrong and Casey Biggs.

The six-day cruise with Norwegian Cruise Line departs Miami, Florida on January 9, 2017, and will make stops in Cozumel, Mexico and the Bahamas.
