 Pride of America

Inaugurated during the summer of 2005 after an incident where the ship actually sank during construction. The Pride of America was made from the hull of former U.S. Cruise Lines (American Hawaii Cruises and others) that went bankrupt shortly after 9/11. She is unique in design and will serve the Hawaiian Islands year around offering a 7-day, 4-island itinerary. The Pride of America is the first U.S. flagged ship in over a half of a century and features and American crew.

    We were skeptical having cruised once before with NCL. When you think that things couldn't be worse the Pride of America made NCL's Jewel into a real Jewel. The staff was rude, one waiter even...read more

    After a nine hour flight from Houston, it took over 90 min to check-in, due to computer problems. It was not a good start for my first, and probably only, cruise - the one I had always wanted. The...read more
