Nowegian Majesty and Dream Sold

Louis Cruise Lines, based out of Greece and specializing in Eastern Mediterranean cruises, has announced they have purchased both the Norwegian Dream and Norwegian Majesty from Star Cruises. These ships were expected to leave the NCL fleet as they don't fit the new Freestyle ship profile, but it was thought they'd go to parent company Star Cruises for use in their Asian market. Instead, this $380 million deal will send them to Greece.

The Dream will be chartered back to NCL until November 2008 and the Majesty will remain with the NCL fleet until December 2009.
