Norwegian Spirit Emerges revitalized after $100 M Upgrade

posted February 14, 2020

Norwegian Cruise Line today the Norwegian Sprit will sail the Greek Isles after an extensive overhaul costing $100 M.

Please excuse the mess while we update the page.

In 2004, Norwegian Cruise Line (a subsidiary company owned by Star Cruises) was planning to launch Pride of America. However, just prior to completion, the vessel partially sank when a storm hit the Lloyd Werft shipyards. To meet the already booked cruises for Pride of America, SuperStar Leo was transferred to the NCL fleet, and after only two weeks of refits, emerged as Norwegian Spirit.

Norwegian Spirit is the first ship of this design. She was followed by SuperStar Virgo, her twin sister ship which is with Star Cruises. No other ships of this particular design were constructed.
