With a string of bad luck and suspicious fires behind her (hopefully forever), NCL's Norwegian Epic completed her second and final round of sea trials over the weekend. Upon her return to the shipyard, work continued to make her ready for her official turnover to NCL on Thursday June 17th.
Following the turnover she will head to Rotterdam for some publicity events and then Southampton next week where she will then depart on her transatlantic trip to New York on June 24th. She will arrive in NYC on July 1st, and dock at pier 88 where she will be christened by Reba McEntire on July 2nd. Following that, Norwegian Epic will host the Macy's July 4th fireworks event on NBC in New York harbor.
Once all that is done she will head to Miami to begin alternating Eastern and Western Caribbean sailings from July 10, 2010 through April 2011. Starting in May 2011 she will be sailing the Western Mediterranean from Barcelona through October 2011.

I have my place on Epic reserved for later on this year. I am particularly looking forward to seeing the Blue Man Group and also hopefully getting a peak at Ice Bar. I can't wait to see photos and reviews over the nest few weeks and really get me in the mood
