Pop icon and “American Idol” judge Katy Perry has been named godmother to upcoming Norwegian Prima, debuting this AUG.
Perry will perform during the christening ceremony before Norwegian Prima sets sail on its inaugural voyages from Reykjavík. It will be the first major cruise line christening in the Icelandic capital.
"We are so excited to welcome Katy Perry, a one-of-a-kind artist and worldwide sensation, as godmother of Norwegian Prima," said Harry Sommer, President and CEO of NCL. "We are so incredibly proud that she will be part of the Norwegian Cruise Line family and look forward to launching our beautiful, innovative ship with her in August."
"My most favorite way to vacation with my family is on the water. Every morning that you wake up, you get to experience an incredible new view," said Perry.
"I love that I get to christen her with my good vibrations, and I'm so excited for this new, beautiful, high-end, high-tech ship to take the seas, and provide once-in-a-lifetime vacations for so many families."
While on board, guests can escape to Ocean Boulevard, featuring multiple infinity pools and Oceanwalk glass bridges with ocean and destination views, visit Indulge, NCL's first-ever upscale international dining open-air marketplace or relax on The Concourse, featuring an outdoor sculpture garden boasting “Instagrammable” installations by famed artists David Harber and Alexander Krivosheiw.
Prima's revamped luxurious centralized suite complex, The Haven By Norwegian will feature 107 staterooms spanning eight decks with a new infinity pool overlooking the ship's wake, and a new outdoor spa with a glass-walled sauna and cold room.
Most recently, NCL unveiled its remaining culinary and beverage offerings available on Norwegian Prima and Viva, including the cruise line's first sustainably-focused lounge, The Metropolitan and its ultra-upscale Mediterranean seafood specialty restaurant Palomar.
Launching AUG 2022, Norwegian Prima will offer inaugural voyages to Northern Europe from Southampton, England; Amsterdam; and Reykjavík, Iceland beginning Aug.12; Bermuda sailings from New York City beginning Oct. 6; and Caribbean itineraries from Galveston, Texas and Miami beginning Oct. 27.
