Norwegian Bliss Wiki

In late October 2016 was revealed the NCL Bliss ship's hull art - themed as “Cruising with the Whales”. The art design is by Robert Wyland - an American artist known worldwide for his large outdoor sculptures and murals (named "Whaling Walls"), all featuring life-size images of whales and other marine life. The NCL Bliss' hull art has as a centerpiece an image of a mother humpback whale and her calf. The design signifies Alaska's beauty and the importance of conservation.

On October 28, 2016, the vessel's construction officially started with the steel cutting ceremony. Instead of the traditional water method (injecting the metal with heat), for NCL Bliss was used the dry plasma method - for more precise cuts and creating less mess).

The ship has the world's biggest marine scrubber system, consisting of 5 units (produced and installed by Yara Marine Technologies). These units clean engines' sulfur oxide emissions by 99%. At max cruising speed, ship's engines consume ~11 tons of diesel fuel per hour. NCL Bliss new "scrubbers" (exhaust gas cleaning systems) as technology reduce the equivalent of approx 1500 tons of Sulfur Oxide (poisonous gas). The five in-line scrubbers are lightweight and able to operate in a dry mode, as well as in open and closed loops. The liner also features Heat Recovery Systems, energy saving LED lighting, improved hydro-dynamic (hull design).

Ship's powerplant consists of all 5x MAN marine diesel engines (2x model 14V48/60CR) plus 3x model 12V48/60CR) with combined power output 76,8 MW. Propulsion's combined output is 44 MW.

Fun facts: On the vessel was applied paint with total weight approx 300 tons. The total length of onboard cables is 2200 km (1367 ml). The total length of onboard pipes is approx 400 km (249 ml).

On May 24, 2017, at Meyer Werft shipyard (Papenburg) was held the vessel's keel-laying ceremony. During the special event, the first block (out of 90) was lifted into the yard's covered shipbuilding hall. With this officially started the NCL Bliss ship's assembly. The ceremony was attended by Andy Stuart (NCL's President and CEO). He laid a “lucky coin” before the first keel block was lowered into place.

On November 29, 2017, NCL announced the name of ship's godparent - Elvis Duran. He is a US radio personality and host of a daily morning radio show in NYC New York on the radio station WHTZ (branded Z100). On February 17, 2018, was vessel's float-out ceremony held at the Papenburg shipyard. The ship was officially delivered to NCL on April 18, 2018.

On March 13, 2018, the vessel left Meyer Werft Papenburg for its conveyance down Ems River to Eemshaven Holland (arriving March 15). It was assisted by tugboats and navigating in reverse (stern first) up to the North Sea for trials. As the passage clearance through Meyer Werft's sea lock is less than 4 ft (1,2 m), the maneuver took ~2 hours at speed 0,2 Kn (0,2 mph / 0,4 kph). In Eemshaven, the ship loaded additional crew and provisions, then headed to the North Sea for sea trials.

The official delivery to NCL was on April 19 in Bremerhaven Germany . The christening ceremony was on May 30, 2018, held in Seattle WA (USA) .

Norwegian Bliss Launches 2022 Alaskan Cruise Season

Award-winning vessel becomes the first ship to sail from seattle and first to visit alaska this summer.

Norwegian Cruise Line (NCL), the innovator in global cruise travel, kicked off the 2022 Alaskan cruise season with  Norwegian Bliss from Port of Seattle. 

The ship is the first of any cruise ship to visit Alaska this season as well as the first of five Norwegian Cruise Line vessels to cruise The Last Frontier through October 2022. 

Guests on Norwegian Bliss' April 23, 2022 sailing are the first of the season to discover the epic sites of the destination. The vessel will provide travelers with immersive experiences through Southeast Alaska, visiting natural wonders including the passage through the 25-million-acre World Heritage Site, Glacier Bay National Park. NCL was granted access to this natural wonder due to the Company's environmental commitments focused on air emissions, waste and wildlife protection. Other once-in-a-lifetime sites guests may visit include the majestic Mendenhall Glacier, which lies nearly 12 miles outside Juneau, Alaska and the Misty Fiords National Monument near Ketchikan, Alaska, a glacier-carved wilderness featuring snowcapped mountains and waterfalls.

Norwegian Cruise Line has a long history of cruising from Seattle to Alaska, having pioneered the route in 2001. The Company is deeply committed to the region working with destination partners in Seattle and Alaska to drive immersive and responsible tourism. In conjunction with Port of Seattle, Norwegian Cruise Line Holding's (NCLH), NCL's parent company, invested $30 million to upgrade Pier 66, the renowned site where Norwegian Bliss was christened in 2018. The dual investment expanded the check-in area by 300 percent to more than 150,000 square feet. It also expanded two new passenger boarding bridges to provide a more comfortable and efficient embarkation process.

We have nearly three decades of history cruising Alaska, pioneering voyages to The Last Frontier from Seattle more than 22 years ago and christened the largest cruise ship in Seattle in 2018 with the debut of Norwegian Bliss. We could not be any prouder to return to our ‘second home’ and jumpstart the 2022 Alaska season with one of our most innovative ships and provide unforgettable guest experiences with some of the world’s most bucket list destinations.

Driving economic support in Alaska, the Company partnered with and invested in Ward Cove Dock Group, LLC, transforming land, formerly designated as a superfund cleanup, or contaminated land, by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), into a sustainable, environmentally friendly and entertaining site for the community and cruise visitors.

Through a partnership with the Alaska Native-owned Huna Totem Corporation, The Company was able to complete a second cruise pier at Icy Strait Point, as well as expand the destination's Wilderness Landing. Enhancements featured upgraded retail, and restaurants, as well as shore excursion offerings, including the world's largest ZipRider zip line, and experiences highlighting the culture of the native Huna Tlingit people. 

In 2021, as part of NCL’s Great Cruise Comeback to celebrate the restart of its operations, The Brand restarted its U.S. voyages from Seattle to Alaska making its first call to Icy Strait Point and also officially welcoming the opening of the new Wilderness Landing pier and the first of two gondola systems to be completed as part of the joint investment between NCLH and Huna Totem.

"We have nearly three decades of history cruising Alaska, pioneering voyages to The Last Frontier from Seattle more than 22 years ago and christened the largest cruise ship in Seattle in 2018 with the debut of Norwegian Bliss," said Norwegian Cruise Line President and Chief  Executive Officer, Harry Sommer. "We could not be any prouder to return to our 'second home' and jumpstart the 2022 Alaska season with one of our most innovative ships and provide unforgettable guest experiences with some of the world's most bucket list destinations."

The Port of Seattle is excited to welcome cruise back to our region for the first full season since 2019.  As we provide vital support for Seattle's maritime, tourism, small business, and supplier sectors, we also are leading the industry in environmental excellence. 

Throughout the 2022 cruise season, NCL will have the youngest fleet sailing Alaska and offer the largest capacity ever with the most sailings offered by the Brand in Alaska, including a variety of cruises for guests to choose from with five, seven, nine, and 10-day itineraries on Norwegian Bliss, Encore, Sun, Spirit, and Jewel. 

"The Port of Seattle is excited to welcome cruise back to our region for the first full season since 2019," said Steve Metruck, Port of Seattle Executive Director.  "As we provide vital support for Seattle's maritime, tourism, small business, and supplier sectors, we also are leading the industry in environmental excellence."

Cruise in Seattle provides nearly $900 million in economic benefit supporting 5,500 jobs and is an important component of the Port of Seattle’s strategy to expand economic opportunity.

Rounding out this momentous industry and Brand kickoff and as part of NCL’s Great Cruise Comeback for Alaskan cruises,  Norwegian Sun  will also return to sail on May 5, 2022, marking the 16 th of our 17 ship fleet to return to operation, as she sets sail from Seattle and makes her way through Alaska and British Columbia. She will offer five, seven, nine and ten-day itineraries this year before setting sail from Hong Kong.

Fall Home Tour 2022

Hello, hello! Happy early Fall to you all! Today I’m sharing a few spaces I’ve spruced up for the season in today’s Fall Home Tour ! To be completely honest, I’ve really been missing September in the Midwest these last several days. It’s still blazing hot [100+ degrees here in Arizona] so it does feel somewhat challenging to get in the Fall spirit! Albeit difficult, come and see how I’ve managed to get our house ready for the upcoming season!

I’m joining 27 other bloggers this week as we all share bits & pieces of our home decorated for Fall. A big thank you to  Marty @ A Stroll Thru Life  for inviting me and hosting the tour! Be sure to stick around until the end to view everyone’s beautiful homes!

To see all of my past  Fall Home Tours click here , for our  Empty House Tour [just one year ago] visit here  and for all past  Home Tours  be sure to check them out in  this Gallery here .

If you’re coming over from my bestie,  Heather @ Southern State of Mind ‘s home then I’m sure you’re still gushing over her gorgeous front porch [that SWING!] and her lovely home. Its as beautiful in-person as it is in the photos, I assure you! Don’t you just love her gorgeous styling with vintage pieces & the cutest DIY’s?

It’s been 14 months now since we packed up and moved across the country from Illinois to Arizona, so I’m happy to report we’ve finally found our groove here. The boys have adjusted seamlessly, we absolutely love being close to family and I still pinch myself when I step outside and peep a palm tree in the backyard or towering above the park across the street.

We’ve completed several room projects [see my recent Room Reveals here ] with many, many plans still in the works for the years to come. But all in all, our house does feel like home now.

So I’m thrilled to be able to show you how I’ve added some Fall touches to a few of the spaces we spend most of our time in.

Last Fall Tour , we’d barely moved in!

FALL HOME TOUR 2022

I pulled out my sole Fall bin and got to work, sprinkling pumpkins here and there and swapping pieces out for warmer tones, coupled with dark and moody pieces as well. I love a good contrast moment. It’s just a vibe I can always get behind, but in the Fall, the moodier, the better.

Let’s start at the front of the house and work our way back!

FALL LIVING ROOM

There haven’t been any major changes in this room yet because we brought all of the furniture in here with us from our last house. The walls were painted last Fall and new curtains went up throughout when I revamped the Dining Room in January .

To cozy things up in here, I simply swapped out the neutral pillows for more neutral pillows, but the color and texture of these pillow covers are so good in person! I’ve had my eye on them for a while, so knew they would be a great addition for the season. [I first shared them here .]

Pampas grass, a candle, and a simple white pumpkin are giving all the Fall vibes on the coffee table.

See all past Living Room ideas here .

FALL DINING ROOM

This might be my favorite room dressed up for the season!

I honestly had been craving a good ol’ fashioned tablescape like no other! It feels like forever since I’ve busted out my placemats and table linens and put together a themed or seasonal set-up in the Dining Room , something I’ve always truly enjoyed.

See my full Tablescape Gallery here for more ideas & inspo

Its sort of therapeutic in a way. Getting creative and making something pretty to be on display in my home.

This tablescape will probably stay set this way from now through Thanksgiving. Although, I’m sure I’ll have to refresh my centerpiece before then.

I’ll share all the details on how I put together this floral arrangement in a pumpkin-filled vase.

I have to admit, it is really beautiful in person. The photos just don’t do it justice!

It was fun playing around with these little pumpkins in here and I never met a bouquet of fresh flowers I didn’t love.

I pulled out my brass flatware, these woven black placemats, gray linen napkins and then placed a faux mini pumpkin inside of our everyday bowls and plates.

I’m all set in here. Now, I just need to host!

FALL FAMILY ROOM

This space was included in last year’s home tour in a very minimal way. We had the built-ins painted last October, so I didn’t show them before they were done!

Que the moody vibes in here! Gosh I love these dark built-ins this time of year.

Flickering candle flames and pops of white and gold against these gray-almost-black shelves just make my heart sing. I traded a couple green plants for cutie pumpkins and more brass.

I had leftover flowers after making the Dining Room Centerpiece, so I filled a small vase and made a mini replica for the coffee table.

My aunt and Grandpa picked up a few crystal pieces for $1 at a recent estate sale, so I put a few to good use this season. Mini acorns are displayed in one on the coffee table.

I purged A LOT of our seasonal and holiday décor before the move, but somehow this DIY mini pumpkin topiary made the cut! I nestled it in next to the sketch art of our old house. The textured fabric and pop of bronze glitter feels warm and cozy.

I added another set of those pillow covers to our Family Room also. The colors work so well in our home. We’ll be spending a lot of time cozied up here on this couch…even if it isn’t for another few weeks!

And this animal print pillow [see this year’s version ] with a gorgeous mustard color on the back fits right in this season as well.

I hope you enjoyed today’s tour! Be sure to head to the next stop, Thrifty and Chic on the tour for more Fall goodness!

What a beautiful fall home tour! Love that gorgeous centerpiece!! Pinned

Thank you so much! I had the best time putting it together!!

I enjoyed stepping into your new home. I really like those dining room chairs. Did you really get them from the amazon link you posted? It says “cream linen” but your pictures don’t really look “cream” and you have it on a white and black rug. I have a round table coming soon from Pottery Barn and need chairs and yours look like something I would like, not to contemporary but not traditional either. Would they look ok with the legs sprayed different like satin nickle or brushed chrome? Would love a close up of the material. Thank you

Hi Dena!! Thank you so much! Yes, my dining room chairs are in fact from Amazon. I have a lightroom preset [photo editing software] applied to the photos to help create a cohesive look across my home and posts, so that might be why they don’t look as cram. The rug is also more of a cream color paired with black. You can most likely find a close-up shot of the material on the chairs in this post here: https://www.thisisourbliss.com/2022/02/01/dining-room-reveal/ Please let me know if you have any other questions. I’m happy to try to help!!

Your fall centerpiece is stunning and your dining table is beautiful! Your home looks amazing, I just love your chic style with all the black! Happy Fall! xo

Thanks, Tamara!! I appreciate that so much! Happy Fall to you as well 🙂

Calypso in the Country

Your neutral decor is just so perfect for fall. I love how you displayed the pampas grass too! Glad to see you’re settling into your new home. Moving is definitely a great time to purge those things you no longer use. (I think I need to move!) Loved your beautiful tour! Shelley

Aww thank you, Shelley! Moving definitely helped clear out some of the clutter. Crazy how its somehow accumulating again though!! Happy Fall!

Julia@Cuckoo4Design

Your fall arrangements are stunning and so is your home. That dining room setting has my heart.

Boy have you been busy? Your home has turned into a dream. I love how fast you’ve pulled this house together and your decor is stunning. My favorite is your dining room. Love your table setting and that amazing centerpiece. Gorgeous. I also love that you repeated the same flower colors throughout the house. So pretty and perfect fall colors. Thanks so much for joining the tour again this season, your home looks amazing.

You’re so sweet, Marty! Thank you for having me! We’ve definitely been working our way around the house trying to pull it together and make it feel like “us”. I was craving warmth this fall so thought the flowers would be really pretty against all the neutrals. Thanks again for hosting and happy Fall! Hopefully we’ll be able to enjoy the cooler temps next week 🙂

Laura Ingalls Gunn

I adore all your fall foliage. The natural touches are gorgeous! Truly a delight being on tour with you.

Thank you, thank you, Laura!!

Cindy@CountyRoad407

There’s just something about a nice centerpiece and a set table ready for guests. I can see why you’ll leave it like that through Thanksgiving – It’s gorgeous! Your black pieces have always been a fave of mine. Everything pops with them so your fall decor looks fantastic! Now it’s time to have that party! Enjoy.

Thank you, Cindy! I completely agree. It just feels welcoming 🙂 Still need to plan that dinner party, but I’ll certainly continue enjoying the view until we do!!

Norwegian Bliss Virtual Tour

I recently had the chance to board NCL’s brand new flagship the Norwegian Bliss and I took the opportunity to photograph the ship for a comprehensive tour. This review will cover the public areas and staterooms.

I had commented on twitter that the ship even smells brand new. The interiors were absolutely stunning. The Bliss just started sailing this year in April.

The ship is technically in the Breakaway Plus -class of vessels but more closely resembles her older sister Norwegian Joy. She’s 168,028gt and has an LOA of 1,094ft. At double occupancy she carries just over 4,000 pax.

Let’s start the tour with our noted obligatory photos:

Obligatory hallway photo

Obligatory carpet photo

Obligatory stairwell photo

The bottom-most deck normally accessed by the public contains inside and outside cabins in the front. Running down the middle is a long corridor between both stairwells. Off of this hallway is the children’s areas.

Deck 6 is where the public areas start. At the very front is the Bliss Theater. It’s really only accessible from the deck above as it’s just one story and you enter from the top-down.

Behind that is the Q Texas Smokehouse. This is the lines first BBQ place.

Behind that is a small passageway on the starboard that contains meeting rooms, the card room/library, and a photo studio.

Those open up to the main atrium. This is where the guest services desks are.

As the ship is built for the west coast, and homeported in Seattle, it’s only fitting that there be a full service Starbucks there.

As you exit the forward atrium, you emerge to the larger midships atrium.

Off the main atrium are several venues.

After you exit the atrium, there’s a narrow passageway aft that the is surrounded by the art gallery.

Then you emerge at the aft stairwell. Around that area is the MIXX bar and off of that are two complementary restaurants, Taste and Savor.

Deck 7 starts with the main entrance to the Bliss theater at the bow. As you exit the theater, you are at the Box Office where you can book tickets to the main shows, such as Jersey Boys .

As you exit the theater, you’re at the top floor of the forward atrium. Around that is the Local Bar & Grill. This replaces O’Sheehans on the former Breakaway ships (as Kevin Sheehan is no longer with the company).

Exiting the Atrium, you are at the very large Bliss Casino. Her identical sister, Norwegian Joy, is designed for the Chinese market. As a result, the Joy has a very large casino. They’ve decided to use that layout for the Bliss.

Towards the back of the casino is the Skyline bar

At the very back of the deck is the Manhattan room. One of the striking rooms onboard these class of ships.

The forward part of deck 8 is balcony cabins and inside cabins. About a quarter of the way back, the Waterfront outside promenade starts. It’s directly above the lifeboats and sticks out from the side of the ship. This creates an outdoor promenade where you can walk down the side, around the stern, and back up the opposite side.

Right after the cabins, the public areas start. On the port side, there’s the District Brewhouse.

On the starboard side is the Food Republic which serves what’s described as a global fusion cuisine.

Walking past those and through the forward elevator bank there’s a grouping of several bars and restaurants.

Back inside, opposite the Cavern Club is the Maltings whiskey bar

Heading aft you’re at the top floor of the midships atrium. Surrounding it are the Mojito bar and the Ocean Blue seafood restaurant.

Back indoors, walking aft, there’s the Tradewinds duty free shops.

At the back of the deck are some food venues. Towards the corder on the starboard side is the bake shop and gelato shop.

At the back of the deck are two restaurants with a bar in between.

A really neat area I stumbled upon is outside at the very back of deck 08. There’s this neat outdoor platform with a glass floor.

Chris Brown Dismisses Notion He’s Been ‘Blackballed’ in Front of Sold-Out Crowd

The singer kicked off his 11:11 Tour on Wednesday in Detroit.

Chris Brown kicked off his tour this week in Detroit to a sold-out crowd, scoffing at the idea that he's been left behind by the industry.

"For a n***a they say is blackballed, this don't look blackballed to me!!!" He also expressed his appreciation to his fans for their support.

"For a nigga they say is blackballed, this don't look blackballed to me" Chris Brown. pic.twitter.com/TWK6KD23Zh — Teniola STEPH (@teniola______) June 6, 2024

Brown's comments are a response to repeated claims he’s made that the music industry is against him, which initially cropped up following his 2009 assault on Rihanna . More recently, in February, Brown alleged that he was uninvited to play in the 2024 NBA All-Star Celebrity Game.

“I was asked by the NBA to play in the all star game this year! Only for them to call later and say they couldn't do it because of their sponsors like Ruffles,” he wrote on his Instagram Story. “At this point I'm sick of people bothering me and I'm tired of living in the fucking past. I posted these emails so y’all could see. The NBA still was tryna get me to come and sit court side... not fucking happening."

Brown is currently on his 11:11 Tour. The Detroit show opened with a Michael Jackson voiceover, then saw Chris float over the crowd on wires.

Charly Bliss Are ‘Calling You Out’ In Their Self-Sabotaging Single From Their Forthcoming ‘Forever’ Album

Charly Bliss bookended May with exciting announcements. To start, Charly Bliss announced FOREVER , their first full-length album since Young Enough , which Uproxx ranked among the “ Best Albums Of 2019 .” The album announcement was paired with “Nineteen,” and the group continued the trend of double announcements on Thursday, May 30.

Charly Bliss released “Calling You Out,” hours after announcing their headlining 2024 North American tour.

“Falling in love with someone wonderful,” lead singer Eva Hendricks said in a statement. “I didn’t know how to not fall into the same bullsh*t that was part of all my previous relationships — namely, jealousy. I wasted a lot of time at the beginning trying to poke holes, to see if it was all for real. I think I was trying to protect myself. I’ll find the catch before the catch finds me! But there was no catch.”

View this post on Instagram A post shared by Charly Bliss (@charlybliss)

In the Adam Kolodny-directed “Calling You Out” video, Eva Hendricks, Sam Hendricks, Spencer Fox and Dan Shure rock on a building’s rooftop. “Picking a fight, but even I don’t know why,” Hendricks belts. “Every time, I swear the worst is over now / You just say one thing, and I find a way to turn it around / I want to be the one to love you, not calling you out / Who’s the one? / Who do you write your songs about?”

Watch the “Calling You Out” video above, and find more information about Forever and Charly Bliss’ tour below.
