NCL Cruise Line
Norwegian Cruise Line’s 2,376-passenger Norwegian Spirit is undergoing a multi-million dollar refurbishment that includes a total renovation of its public areas, staterooms and suites.
These refurbishments are in addition to the enhancements already made as part of Freestyle 2.0, the company’s fleet-wide initiative to improve the guest experience from food and beverage to staterooms.
“Norwegian Spirit’s multi-million dollar renovation will enrich the overall guest experience by making significant enhancements to the ship overall,” said Andy Stuart, NCL’s executive vice president of global sales and passenger services.
“With the combination of our recent Freestyle 2.0 enhancements and all of the refurbishments being made, Norwegian Spirit will emerge refreshed and revitalized for her winter season sailing seven-day Exotic Western Caribbean cruises from New Orleans.”
Norwegian Spirit’s total refurbishment includes 11 new staterooms, eight with balconies; replacement of one diesel engine; new seating and chairs in the Stardust Theater; reupholstering seating throughout the ship; and replacing carpet in public areas, stairwells, suites and staterooms.
Also, new wallpaper is being installed in suites, corridors and public areas; new curtains are being added to all suites; tile is being replaced in 300 bathrooms; all open decks including the main pool, kid’s pool and four hot tubs are undergoing refurbishment; the Roman Spa & Fitness Center is being upgraded with new doors, panels and seats; more than 60 windows are being replaced; and the onboard phone system is being upgraded to a state-of-the-art wireless system.
Norwegian Spirit will re-enter service on Nov. 23 and begin 21 seven-day Exotic Western Caribbean cruises from New Orleans with calls in Costa Maya and Cozumel, Mexico; Santo Tomas De Castilla, Guatemala; and Belize City, Belize.
The ship joined the NCL fleet in 2004 and underwent a previous dry-dock in 2005.
