American Cruise Lines Christens American Patriot in Newport
American Cruise Lines christened American Patriot in Newport, Rhode Island last week, celebrating the holiday and marking the countdown to the country’s 250th birthday on July 4, 2026.
American Patriot is the first ship in the company’s new Patriot Class—a fleet of 130-passenger ships designed exclusively for cruising the U.S.A.
Sister ships American Pioneer, American Maverick, and American Ranger will launch later this year and into 2026.
The christening festivities included cruise guests, community members, officials from Sail Newport, and a small group of American Cruise Lines executives and crew.
