Norwegian Sun
Sister ship, Norwegian Sky
Norwegian Sun entered service in 2001 in a dual christening ceremony at the Port of Miami with the Norwegian Star. She was preceded by Norwegian Sky (entered service in 1999, re-launched as Pride of Aloha in 2004.) NCL defines both the Norwegian Sun and Norwegian Sky as Sky class ships.
The NCL Sun is the first ship designed specifically for freestyle cruising. The ship's dress code is now "resort casual", with one optional formal night.
