Norwegian America Line

The Norwegian America Line (Norwegian: Den Norske Amerikalinje), was a cruise ship line, originally an operator of passenger and cargo ships. Founded in 1910, the company ran a regular transatlantic service between Norway and the United States, and later included a route to East Africa as well.

Primarily due to competition from air travel, transatlantic passenger voyages were discontinued in 1971.
