The U.S.-flagged Pride of America is NCL's year-round Hawaii cruise ship. This cruise ship exclusively features 7-night Inter-Island Hawaii cruises, sailing round trip from Honolulu, Oahu, Hawaii. Such cruises offer a great value, as well as convenience, as travelers are able to avoid the hassle of having to frequently pack and unpack, flying island to island, in order to see all of the most desirable areas of the exotic Hawaiian Islands.

In March 2016, Pride of America emerged from an intensive dry dock, where she received ship-wide enhancements as a part of the fleet-wide Norwegian Edge™ imitative. This refurbishment included newly redesigned public spaces, new venues and refreshed décor in all staterooms. Guests will find onboard a modern, updated look with contemporary designs, furniture, new lighting and flooring!

New venues include the Soho Art Gallery, where guests can stroll through an expansive gallery of original works of art for purchase, as well as the new Perspectives Photo Studio - an area where you can immortalize your vacation with professional photos. Sate your sweet tooth after at Dolce Gelato, Norwegian's signature gelateria now onboard Pride of America!

With 11 restaurants, as well as 24-hour room service, available on board Pride of America, you're sure to always have plenty of dining options. Among the restaurants are the two main dining rooms (Liberty and Skyline), as well as specialty restaurants (including Jefferson's Bistro, Little Italy, Lazy J Texas Steakhouse, East Meets West and a sushi bar). Following Pride of America's Norwegian Edge™ upgrades, all dining venues now boast new artwork, lighting fixtures, window treatments and more!

Guests will now also find more freedom and flexibility when it comes to dining onboard Pride of America, with the addition of new menu choices and à la carte items in complimentary dining rooms and specialty restaurants. Pride of America's new menus now feature increased variety, carefully developed by a dedicated culinary team to focus on balancing traditional favorites like prime rib, chateaubriand, rock of lamb and escargot with current dining trends and the modern guest's expectations.

Pride of America has a wonderful variety of staterooms and suites available on board. Among the choices are insides, ocean views, balconies, mini-suites and suites (that are as large as 1,000+-square feet in size!). As part of her 2016 refurbishment, Pride of America's staterooms all received new bedding, furniture, flat screen televisions and updated flooring.

Please be aware that, due to Hawaiian gaming regulations, there is no casino onboard Pride of America. However, between the amazing itinerary and fabulous on board ship features, you're sure to find plenty to do while on a Pride of America cruise. As far as things to do on board Pride of America, there is a two-deck show room featuring live nightly performances, as well as many bars and lounges (including a cabaret lounge and nightclub), pools, hot tubs, spa and much more!
