The Prima-class is based on a prototype project developed by Fincantieri, which enhances the “freestyle cruising” features that Norwegian Cruise Line is known for. The project was also created with a focus on energy efficiency, with the aim of optimizing consumption at sea and reducing environmental impact, compliant with all the most recently environmental regulations.
New-to-Norwegian features that will be found on Prima include a new buffet-like concept called Indulge Food Hall, The Concourse sculpture garden, Oceanwalk glass bridges, and the Infinity Beach deck featuring two infinity pools on either side of the ship.
