Most modern cruise ships need to be dry docked for inspection, maintenance and class surveys every five years and once they reach 15 years of age they need to be dry docked at least twice within a five-year period. Dry docks typically last up to 14 days at a cost of up to $2 million per day and involve regular maintenance including hull cleaning, exterior painting of the structure, inspection of pipes, restoration of exterior deck flooring, and installation of enhanced HVAC filter systems
The Norwegian Pearl is the third in the Jewel class of ships for NCL, joining her sisters the Norwegian Jewel and Pride of Hawaii (now Norwegian Jade) in the NCL fleet.
Norwegian removed a water slide that it once had near the pool area.
During November 2021 drydock bathtubs were removed from some Suites and Club Balconies.
