Norwegian Jade was built by Meyer Werft as Pride of Hawaii for NCL America and christened in Los Angeles in May 2006. In 2008 she left Hawaii, was renamed and moved to Europe, keeping much of her Hawaiian decor until a 2017 Norwegian Edge refit replaced it, refurbished every stateroom and added O'Sheehan's, The Pit Stop and Bliss Ultra Lounge. A 2026 dry dock added the adults-only Vibe Beach Club. She measures 294 m (965 ft) and 93,558 GT and carries 2,352 guests in double occupancy.
