Use NCL's dimension reordering syntax:

if
     x(time, longitude, latitude)

then
     xNew = x(time|:,latitude|:,longitude|:)
     printVarSummary(xNew)

Other tidbits:
     xNew = x(time|:,latitude|::-1,longitude|:) ; reorder data
     printVarSummary(xNew)

     xNew = x(time|0:2,latitude|8:12:,longitude|::5)
     printVarSummary(xNew)

Note that the coordinate data is automatically handled.
