Norwegian Gem

Norwegian Gem is a Norwegian Cruise Line ship in the Jewel Class, built in 2007 by Meyer Werft. The ship measures about 93,530 GT and 965 ft / 294 m in length, with a listed guest capacity of 2,394 passengers. Deck listings vary by source: Meyer Werft lists 15 decks, while cruise profiles often count 12 passenger decks.

Norwegian Gem typically sails mixed seasonal itineraries, including the Mediterranean and Greek Isles, Caribbean and Bahamas, plus repositioning or special routes such as Transatlantic, Panama Canal, Canada & New England sailings depending on deployment. Recent listings show Mediterranean/Greek Isles cruises between Rome and Ravenna, and later Caribbean/Bahamas sailings from Tampa.

The onboard casino is commonly listed as Gem Club Casino, located on Deck 6; NCL’s own ship guide also places the casino on Deck 6. It is a midship entertainment venue near bars and lounges, with a typical NCL casino atmosphere: busy in the evenings, slot-focused, and casual rather than high-roller oriented.
