Norwegian Cruise Line's next new ship-the Norwegian Joy-is headed for the Chinese market, but before it is launched, I had a chance to preview the ship in video, hosted at my Popular Cruising YouTube channel and embedded below.

Highlights in glorious 4K Ultra HD resolution include testing of the free-fall, figure-eight Ocean Loop waterslide and POV perspectives of yours truly riding the ship's bumper cars and go-karts. Also keep an eye out for the breathtaking wraparound observation and concierge lounges overlooking the front of the ship. Enjoy!
