Superstar Scorpio , and sister ship SuperStar Libra , were ordered from Meyer-Werft , Papenburg (Germany), to be delivered in 2001 and 2002 to Star Cruises ''( NCL's parent company)''. Six months before delivery, it was decided that SuperStar Libra, would be transferred to the NCL fleet, rather than move SuperStar Leo as the Norwegian Leo as was originally planned. SuperStar Libra was delivered to NCL as Norwegian Star (2) in 2001. SuperStar Scorpio was delivered to NCL as Norwegian Dawn in December 2002. Both ships are around 92,000grt. The Norwegian Dawn sails from New York City to Orlando, Florida ( Port Canaveral ), Miami , Nassau ; and Great Stirrup Cay. SHIP FACTS
