Norwegian Epic

Norwegian Epic is a cruise ship of the Norwegian Cruise Line built under NCL's F3 Project by the STX EuropeChantiers de l'Atlantique shipyard in Saint-Nazaire, France. When launched in 2010 she was the third largest cruise ship in the world.

Two ships in the Epic class were ordered by NCL in November 2006, with an option for a third vessel that was not exercised. A dispute between NCL and STX initially resulted in the construction of both ships being placed on hold until a new agreement was reached. The agreement called for completion of the first ship; the second ship was cancelled in 2008. The sole remaining ship, Norwegian Epic, was delivered to NCL on 17 June 2010.

After completion and acceptance, Norwegian Epic sailed on 24 June 2010 from Southampton to New York.
