She is 14 years old and probably has another 20 before the scrapyard. The cruiselines do not talk about it, but ships break a lot and when it interrupts a schedule then it becomes public. The SSNorway was in far worse shape than NCL let on, same with the Pacific Princess.

What i can see she's now anchored at the bay of NICE in france, i hope she will get ready to sail on the 25th as im going on that cruise, but as a person said to me, it might be a leaking hose or something that preventing the rudder from working, normaly these repairs doesn't take longer than a few day, and i know celebrity that they will work day and night to fix this problem......

Found her on marinetraffic.com
