Norwegian Aqua is a cruise ship operated by Norwegian Cruise Line of the Prima Plus class, the debut ship of its subclass.
Norwegian Aqua's maiden voyage was from the Fincantieri shipyard to Southampton. [1] The ship's first sail across the Atlantic was originally intended to be from Southampton to Boston, but was diverted to New York City due to inclement weather. [3]
Eric Stonestreet christened the Norwegian Aqua on April 13, 2025, at Miami. [2]
Norwegian Aqua is 10% larger than other ships of the Prima class, [4] being the first if the Prima Plus subclass. [5] In addition to Prima-class features, Norwegian Aqua also has a slidecoaster (a hybrid between a water slide and roller coaster [5] ), digital sport complex, arcade, and an adults-only club.
