Cruise Zanza Blue
Norwegian Cruise Line unveiled the hull design for the 4,200-passenger Norwegian Epic, scheduled for delivery in May 2010.
The company will begin taking reservations for Norwegian Epic’s 2010-11 inaugural season on May 21 with a special preview day for past guests on May 20.
Norwegian Epic’s hull artwork, designed by the company’s internal marketing team, is painted on both sides with free-form rolling waves that run through a color spectrum of lime, aqua, red and purple dotted by silver circles.
Norwegian Epic’s hull design is a departure from the rest of the line’s signature hull artwork, which typically is inspired by the ship’s name or the destination the ship sails from.
Instead, the hull artwork on Norwegian Epic takes on the characteristics of the ship’s interior features — a modern and sleek design and color palette that is seen in everything from the curved design of the New Wave staterooms to the more contemporary design of the ship’s public areas.
Norwegian Epic is scheduled to sail year-round to the Eastern and Western Caribbean from Miami, beginning in summer 2010.
The ship’s Western Caribbean itinerary calls in Costa Maya, Mexico; Roatán, Honduras; and Cozumel, Mexico.
Norwegian Epic’s Eastern Caribbean itinerary includes calls in St. Maarten, St. Thomas and Nassau.
