History
This ship entered service in August, 2005. She was constructed at Meyer Werft Shipyard in Papenburg, Germany.
Vessel Class
Norwegian Jewel is NCL's first of four Jewel Class ships. She was followed in 2006 by Norwegian Jade (originally the Pride of Hawaii) and Norwegian Pearl, and then in 2007 by Norwegian Gem. Each ship has unique amenities, but has a similar exterior and interior design.
Norwegian Jewel was preceded at NCL by two Libra Class ships; Norwegian Star, which entered service in 2001, and Norwegian Dawn, which entered service in 2002. Although the Libra Class ships have a similar exterior appearance to the Jewel Class, there are significant interior and amenity differences that merit their different class designation.
