NCL announced that Norwegian Sky underwent a complete refurbishment focused on enhancing the guest experience while the 2.002-passenger ship was in dry dock last month in Freeport, Bahamas. The ship, which entered the Miami short cruise market in July 2008, received enhancements to its public areas, staterooms and suites, as well as the addition of three new staterooms.
“Norwegian Sky has been in high demand since we brought her to Miami to sail three and four-night Bahamas cruises last year; and therefore we wanted to give her a beautiful new look for the summer season and beyond,” said Kevin Sheehan, NCL’s chief executive officer. 0
