Utter Bliss for cruisers
A CRUISE to Alaska is the quintessential bucket-list experience.
And soon there will be another ship sailing to the final frontier, giving cruisers even more choice.
The new vessel is the Norwegian Bliss. Custom-built with Alaska’s rugged landscape in mind, passengers can stand on the revolutionary Observation Deck, where they can spot bald eagles soaring above and orcas breaching the ocean below.
But that’s not all that awaits passengers on board this new ship. This is Norwegian Cruise Line after all, so there are plenty of fun family-friendly amenities included. On the Top Deck, you’ll find a two-tier race track — the very first one at sea. Even more, there’s laser tag and an Aqua Park with two multi-tiered waterslides.
You’re probably going to be hungry after a day exploring Alaska (or riding go-karts) — but the Norwegian Bliss has that covered, too. Stop by Q, a Texas Smokehouse, with a selection of ribs, chicken and brisket smoked over hickory, oak and pecan wood (plus in the evenings you’ll be treated to music from a traditional country band).
And if you have a sweet tooth, then it’s Coco’s for you. Here you can delight your taste buds with sweet chocolate, as well as chocolate pralines, crepes and coffees. But if it’s something familiar you’re looking for, then there’s always the onboard Starbucks.
Not everything on the Norwegian Bliss is brand new, though, and you’ll find plenty of old Norwegian favourites. 678 Ocean Place, the Mandara Spa, Waterfront and the luxury Haven, will also make an appearance.
Passengers also won’t need to worry about their bill at the end either, thanks to Norwegian Cruises’ all-inclusive nature. On every Norwegian Cruise holiday your entertainment, sports facilities, complimentary dining and kids’ clubs are all included.
And if you opt for Premium All-Inclusive you’ll be treated to premium beverages, speciality coffees during mealtimes, soft drinks, bottled water and all tips related to all-inclusive services.
