NCL ships to receive star treatment ahead of line’s largest ever European deployment

Norwegian Spirit and Norwegian Jade will undergo multi-million pound enhancements over the autumn ahead of Norwegian Cruise Line's largest ever European programme.

Combined with Norwegian Sun’s makeover earlier this year, it means all three ships will be refreshed for the new season before they sail alongside the recently launched Norwegian Epic.

Norwegian Jade’s makeover starts in November
Norwegian Spirit has just entered a 13-day dry dock in Alabama. The 2,018-passenger ship is receiving renovations including:

Installing wireless internet access throughout the entire ship including crew areas

New flat screen televisions in guest and crew staterooms

Upgrades to accessible guest staterooms and the addition of ramps in various areas of the ship

Replacement of 64,000sq ft of carpet throughout the ship

Addition of new silk plants throughout the ship

Enhancements to the Stardust Theatre

Addition of an aerobics room in the Roman Spa and Fitness Centre for spinning, yoga and various fitness classes

Updates to Raffles Court, the ship’s buffet restaurant

Norwegian Jade will enter dry dock in Marseille, France in November when the 2,402-passenger ship will receive the line’s signature Brazilian steakhouse, Moderno Churrascia, replacing Paniolo’s Tapas and Salsa restaurant on Deck 8 along with technical enhancements… and a new coat of paint.

“While we have the youngest fleet in the industry, we still want to continuously enhance our ships,” said Kevin Sheehan, Norwegian Cruise Line’s chief executive officer. “With the dry docks of Norwegian Spirit and Norwegian Jade, we will have completed enhancements on four ships this year, a major investment for the company.”
