Overview

Norwegian Spirit is a Leo-class ship built by Meyer Werft in 1998, originally sailing Asian itineraries for Star Cruises as SuperStar Leo before transferring to Norwegian Cruise Line in 2004. Carrying roughly 2,000 guests, she is one of NCL's more mid-sized, intimate ships and champions the line's flexible Freestyle Cruising dining concept. A comprehensive $100 million refurbishment in 2020 added new restaurants, bars and modernised staterooms.
