Norwegian Cruise Line Upgrades Two Popular Ships

  • Expanded Mandara Spa Thermal Suite: The upgraded wellness facilities feature triple the number of heated ceramic loungers alongside charcoal saunas, ice rooms, and salt rooms.
  • Vibe Beach Club Open-Air Debut: Deck 14 on both vessels has been transformed into a premium, adults-only outdoor retreat featuring private cabanas and a full-service bar.
  • Atrium Starbucks Addition On Jade: A newly installed, fully licensed Starbucks storefront brings handcrafted coffee beverages and seasonal blends to passengers.
  • Fleet-Wide Brand Consistency Strategy: Norwegian Cruise Line continues upgrading its existing fleet to ensure consistent, modern amenities across all global itineraries.

Norwegian Cruise Line is elevating passenger comfort across its global fleet. The company has officially completed major refurbishment projects on both Norwegian Jade and Norwegian Gem, successfully introducing fan-favorite venues and state-of-the-art wellness technology to ensure brand consistency across all vessels.

The cornerstone of this fleet enhancement is the reimagined Mandara Spa Thermal Suite aboard both ships. Designed around guest feedback, the updated layout boasts three times as many heated tile loungers, an updated reception area, and brand-new holistic wellness spaces. Passengers can indulge in a radiant-heat Charcoal Sauna to reduce muscle tension, a refreshing Ice Room to clear respiratory paths, and a soothing Salt Room for skin health. Norwegian Jade also introduces multi-jet Experiential Showers and a cold Plunge Pool, while Norwegian Gem features an updated hot tub and a detoxifying Thalassotherapy pool.

Outdoor relaxation receives an equally impressive upgrade on Deck 14, where existing sundecks on both ships have been repurposed into the adults-only Vibe Beach Club. This exclusive retreat offers sweeping ocean views, a private full-service cocktail bar, over fifty premium sun loungers, an extra hot tub, and seven private cabanas for rent. Additionally, Norwegian Jade now features a fully licensed, atrium-located Starbucks store for handcrafted espresso drinks and seasonal treats. Under the leadership of President Marc Kazlauskas, these transformations give ocean travelers even more ways to personalize their vacation experience while sailing high-demand routes across Alaska, Europe, the Caribbean, and Asia.
