Additionally, both ships now feature the enhanced Vibe Beach Club, created by transforming the Deck 14 sundeck area into a private adults-only retreat. The exclusive outdoor space offers stunning ocean views, a private full-service bar, an additional hot tub, more than 50 premium loungers and seven private cabanas, giving guests a relaxing and stylish place to unwind.
Norwegian Jade has also introduced a licensed Starbucks location, allowing guests to enjoy signature coffees, seasonal beverages and food items onboard. NCL says it was the first cruise line to offer Starbucks across its entire fleet and private destinations.
Until late summer 2026, Norwegian Jade will offer seven-day Alaska cruises from Vancouver, British Columbia, and Whittier (Anchorage), Alaska. Guests can enjoy scenic cruising through the Inside Passage and glacier regions, with visits to Ketchikan, Juneau, Skagway and Icy Strait Point.
Norwegian Gem is currently sailing Mediterranean and Greek Isles itineraries from Rome (Civitavecchia) and Venice (Ravenna), featuring destinations such as Cannes, Florence/Pisa, Split, Dubrovnik and several Greek islands.
Later in 2026, Norwegian Gem will sail to the Caribbean and Bahamas from Tampa, Florida, while Norwegian Jade returns to Asia, giving guests even more opportunities to enjoy the ships’ refreshed facilities.
