NCL completes refurbishment of three ships

Tuesday, 13 Aug, 2018 0

Norwegian Cruise Line has announced the complete refurbishment of three ships, Norwegian Breakaway, Norwegian Sun and Norwegian Star.

The ships each feature new designs and venues including Los Lobos Cantina, an ‘upscale’ Mexican restaurant; the adults-only enclave, Spice H2O; and Syd Norman’s Pour House – an American rock ‘n’ roll bar and lounge, which makes its debut aboard Norwegian Breakaway, replacing Fat Cats.

"What a year this has been for us at Norwegian Cruise Line," said president and CEO Andy Stuart. "Not only did we introduce our latest and record-breaking ship, Norwegian Bliss, and announce the redeployment of her sister ship Norwegian Joy, but we are now unveiling our newly revitalised ships, Norwegian Breakaway, Sun and Star.

"This is a testament to how invested we are in our guests’ experience. Although we are one of the youngest fleets in the industry, we are very committed to The Norwegian Edge program which allows us to remain consistent, relevant and exciting."

Norwegian Breakaway, the newest of the three ships, will debut Syd Norman’s Pour House as well as upgraded accommodation and public spaces following a two-week dry dock in Brest, France.

Additional upgrades include enhancements to Bliss Ultra Lounge with new, premium furniture; new carpet in all 2,014 cabins and suites; a full transformation of the gift shop; and new carpets in the staircases, elevators and lobbies.

Norwegian Sun has undergone a refresh of the cabins and public areas and the addition of Los Lobos Cantina, which replaced Las Ramblas, Bliss Ultra Lounge and Spinnaker Lounge, which has replaced the Observation Lounge.

Norwegian Star has refurbished cabins, public spaces, restaurants, bars and lounges and has three new venues: Sky High Bar, Bliss Ultra Lounge and Spice H2O.
