Norwegian Cruise Line (NCL) celebrated the completion of its Great Cruise Comeback last week, with the sailing of the Norwegian Spirit, the 17th and final ship in its fleet to return to service.
NCL’s return to service after a 500-day pause due to the Covid pandemic began with Norwegian Jade’s 25 July 2021 sailing from Athens (Piraeus), Greece.
Since then, NCL has relaunched its ships around the world, welcoming guests and crew members aboard its award-winning vessels.
‘This is an incredibly important day in our history and a defining moment for our future,’ said Harry Sommer, president and CEO of Norwegian Cruise Line. ‘We are moving full speed ahead, having already welcomed more than half a million guests for an exceptional vacation at sea.’
Norwegian Spirit, which is sporting an extensive bow-to-stern, over $100 million refurbishments, will be sailing through the deep blue South Pacific, visiting eight ports in 12 days, with departures from the beautiful Island of Tahiti.
As part of the most extensive renovation, the ship now showcases 14 new venues, additional and updated staterooms, enhanced public areas and new hull art.
