<\/a><\/p>\nMIAMI \u2013 Norwegian Cruise Line announced today that thanks to its Facebook fans around the globe the names of the line\u2019s two new Breakaway Plus class ships are Norwegian Escape and Norwegian Bliss. These names are the two that received the highest number of votes, out of the line\u2019s top ten name prospects, in the \u201cNorwegians Name Their Ships\u201d contest, which asked fans in five countries to help select the names for the line\u2019s two new Breakaway Plus vessels.<\/p>\n
The contest, which ran from September 10 through September 24, 2013, garnered more than 100,000 votes from Norwegian fans located in five different countries, including the United States, Canada (excluding Quebec), Spain, Germany and the United Kingdom.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe response to our \u2018Norwegians Name Their Ships\u2019 contest was overwhelming,\u201d said Kevin Sheehan, Norwegian\u2019s chief executive officer. \u201cIt reaffirms that we have a very engaged and passionate community of Norwegians and we are thrilled with the names they have selected for our two new Breakaway Plus Class Ships. Norwegian Escape and Norwegian Bliss are two names that truly characterize our brand, Freestyle Cruising\u00ae, and the experience guests will have on board these fantastic new vessels.\u201d<\/p>\n
All those who submitted a vote for their favorite Breakaway Plus ship names were entered into a random drawing to win a trip for two to the first Breakaway Plus ship\u2019s inaugural festivities, including round-trip coach airfare for two, ground transportation, balcony stateroom accommodations (double occupancy) and on-board meals.<\/p>\n
Norwegian\u2019s new Breakaway Plus ships will be the largest in the line\u2019s fleet at approximately 163,000 gross tons and 4,200 passenger berths each and will be similar in design and innovation to the line\u2019s current Breakaway class, the first of which, Norwegian Breakaway, launched in New York in early May and the second of which, Norwegian Getaway, will launch in January and arrive in her homeport of Miami in February.<\/p>\n
