NEXT time you’re in a cruise ship bar, spare a thought for the creative souls who had to decide what it would be called.
During last weekend’s Norwegian Bliss inaugural out of LA (see p1), NCL ceo Andy Stuart gave a personal insight into how the A-List Bar on deck eight came by its name.
Apparently Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings ceo Frank Del Rio said it would be appropriate for the bar to be inspired by Stuart, given he has been with the company for over 30 years.
Stuart related the tale of his seemingly vowel-obsessed family, where the letter ‘A’ seems to be very important.
He and his two sisters all have names starting with A – so when he married Allison it seemed only natural to continue the tradition.
Andy and Allison are the proud parents of Alexander and Alicia – hence the bar is named “A-List”.
Stuart is pictured aboard Norwegian Bliss last Sat with a ‘Gunner’ cocktail – named after his favourite football team – Arsenal, of course.
