Dubbed the “Coastal Cats”, American Glory and sister-ship American Eagle are part of a newbuild program that could see up to 12 similar vessels enter service for American Cruise Lines over the next few years. Two additional, as-yet-unnamed vessels are due to enter service for American Cruise Lines in 2024.

Visiting only U.S. ports of call, the American-flagged ships of American Cruise Lines have grown more modern and elaborate over the past few years. The company’s riverboats, like American Serenade, have embraced modern styling that does away with the traditional paddlewheel feature and decor found on many U.S. based river vessels.

The Coastal Cats, like American Glory, reaffirm ACL’s commitment to exploring the coastal regions of the United States, from Alaska to Florida and everywhere in between.
