Our Fleet
With 21 world-class vessels, Norwegian Cruise Line has one of the most nimble and contemporary fleets in the industry. The ships are divided among six different classes, including the Sun, Dawn, Jewel, Breakaway, Breakaway Plus Class, and Prima Class. Norwegian Epic, Pride of America and Norwegian Spirit are in their own classes, adding to the brand’s variety of vessels.
In 2026, Norwegian Cruise Line welcomed Norwegian Luna into the fleet, the second ship of the next generation Prima Plus Class, the most innovative and successful class in the company’s history. The company expects to add seven additional ships from 2026 to 2036. The new Prima Plus class builds upon the brand’s legacy of freedom and flexibility found across its fleet and feature a host of cutting-edge designs that will further elevate its already award-winning guest experience.
