Service history
In 2017, Norwegian Cruise Line ordered four ships of a novel class, scheduled for delivery from 2022 to 2025.[5] 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.[6]
Eric Stonestreet christened Norwegian Aqua on April 13, 2025, at Miami.[4]
For the 2026 season, Norwegian Aqua is scheduled for 28 visits of Bermuda.[7]
