The Norwegian Spirit (formerly the SuperStar Leo) is a cruise ship currently in operation with Norwegian Cruise Line.

The vessel was constructed by Meyer Werft in Germany. Named SuperStar Leo in 1998, the vessel was the first of Star Cruises' Leo Class. She was first based in Hong Kong for almost five years.

In 2004, Norwegian Cruise Line (a subsidiary company owned by Star Cruises) was planning to launch Pride of America. However, just prior to completion, the vessel partially sank when a storm hit the Lloyd Werft shipyards. To meet the already booked cruises for Pride of America, SuperStar Leo was transferred to the NCL fleet, and after only two weeks of refits, emerged as Norwegian Spirit.

In January 2006, "Norwegian Spirit" encountered a freak wave off the coast of Tortola.
