Bliss Is It!
Porthole Cruise Magazine|October 2018

Ignorance is not bliss. You’ll want to know every inch of Norwegian’s largest, latest, and greatest ship yet.

Bliss Is It!

Majestic Alaska! A land of infinite beauty, magnificent wildlife, fascinating history … and weather so changeable that the smart traveler will pack everything from skimpy tank tops to a parka, gloves, and certainly an umbrella before embarking on a journey to the Last Frontier.

No question this was in the minds of those behind the creation of Norwegian Bliss, Norwegian Cruise Line’s latest addition and a ship purpose-built for Alaska cruising, complete with colorful Alaska-inspired hull artwork by marine life artist and devoted conservationist, Wyland. Bliss is packed with so many innovative and exciting features both inside and out that it no longer matters what conditions the Great Land throws at us. And, of course, those extraordinary features will be just as appealing to cruisers once the Alaska season ends and Bliss heads down south, through the Panama Canal, for her inaugural Caribbean season.

At 168,028 tons and 4,004 passengers, Norwegian Bliss is the largest ship in the line’s 17-ship fleet, fitting comfortably in the “Breakaway Plus” category, a distinction previously held only by Norwegian Breakaway and Norwegian Escape. While the “plus” could refer to the ships’ larger size (10 percent larger than those of Breakaway class), the real “plus” for many guests is an additional deck devoted to groundbreaking features never-before-seen at sea.
