It's BIG but is it Beautiful?

Norwegian Cruise Line has now accepted delivery of its largest and most innovative ship to date, Norwegian Epic, from STX FRANCE SA. Norwegian Epic at 153,000 gross tons is the largest ship ever constructed in St. Nazaire and therefore represents a major milestone for STX.



It is certainly big - but is it beautiful?

With the mania for size in the cruise industry, and ever trying to create the even bigger cruise ship than the last one to float out of the dockyards, Prow's Edge wonders if this quest for size is really what cruise passengers are after!

Norwegian Epic will be christened by legendary entertainer Reba McEntire on July 2 followed by a two-day inaugural cruise. Norwegian Epic will be the host venue for the 34th Annual Macy's 4th of July Fireworks event taking place on Sunday, July 4. The event includes a national, one-hour, live entertainment broadcast on NBC-TV beginning at 9 p.m. ET.

Another BIG event!
