Recently refurbished as part of The Norwegian Edge program, Norwegian Star brings the concept of freedom and flexibility to cruises that ply the Mediterranean, Northern Europe, South America and transatlantic cruises. On board Norwegian Star you'll find many delicious dining options, bars and lounges, an extensive spa, an exciting casino with VIP area, and lots of fun for kids of all ages.
If you think you know Norwegian Star, think again. Following a nearly three-week dry dock in Barcelona, Spain, Norwegian Star underwent extensive enhancements to its staterooms, public spaces, restaurants, bars and lounges as part of The Norwegian Edge program. The ship, built in 2001, also unveiled three new venues: Sky High Bar, Bliss Ultra Lounge and Spice H2O.
