Sunday in August, 2017 was a big day in Las Vegas for Norwegian Cruise Line and the Norwegian Bliss reveal and photo tour event.

At the event, it was announced that many of Norwegian’s familiar cruise ship features will remain…while a few of them will be tossed and replaced or redesigned.

One of my favorite eateries on many Norwegian’s ships, O’Sheehan’s, will be gone but in it’s place will be The Local Bar. I hope it will still offer those fabulous french fries in a basket!

There will also be many firsts at sea activities, including the largest competitive, two-level race track at sea and an open-air laser tag course.

At approximately 167,800 gross tons and accommodating 4,000 guests, Norwegian Bliss is being built in Germany and scheduled for delivery in Spring 2018.

Rather than going on in superlatives and descriptives, here’s a Norwegian Bliss photo tour of the public areas, from the reveal event. All photos are courtesy of Norwegian Cruise Line.
