Fincantieri secures Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings four-cruise-ship order

Fincantieri announced that the Letter of Intent signed with Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings Ltd (NCLH) on 8 April 2024 has been converted into a firm order for the construction of four new cruise ships for the Norwegian Cruise Line (NCL) brand. This agreement, subject to financing and other customary conditions, represents a contract valued at over €2 billion.

With a gross tonnage of approximately 226,000 tons, these vessels will be the largest ever built for NCL. They will be constructed at Fincantieri’s Monfalcone shipyard, with deliveries scheduled for 2030, 2032, 2034 and 2036.

Each ship will feature over 5,100 berths, accommodating more than 8,300 people, including crew, while incorporating the latest standards in comfort, technology and sustainability.

This new order strengthens the long-standing partnership between Fincantieri and NCLH. Fincantieri has previously delivered two ships for the NCL brand – Norwegian Prima and Norwegian Viva – with Norwegian Aqua, the first unit of the Prima Plus class, set for delivery in the coming months. Additionally, three other vessels are currently in various stages of design and construction.
