American Glory is the second Coastal Cat in American Cruise Lines’ new series of 100-passenger ships. It was recently christened in Mallory Square, where the ship docks when visiting Key West during the new Florida Gulf Coast & Keys cruises.
“Docking in Mallory Square is a privilege, and we are honored to be a new small piece of the Key West community. We are grateful to Mayor Johnston and proud to have her as godmother of American Glory. We look forward to continuing to build on our partnership with Key West and other Florida coastal towns,” said Charles B. Robertson, president & CEO, American Cruise Lines.

Dignitaries, community members, cruise guests and port officials joined the event, which also included Mayor the Honorable Teri Johnston, serving as the ship’s godmother. The Victory Belles performed.
American Glory’s christening follows that of American Eagle in August 2023. American Glory now continues to sail the same itinerary through March, returning again in November and December. American Legend will join later this year, and in 2024 and 2025, these sister ships will operate select itineraries exploring the East Coast, from Maine to Florida.
American Glory boasts four decks and a unique catamaran bow, with an elegant interior and private balcony accommodations. For just 100 guests, there are indoor and outdoor lounges, a top deck, a main restaurant, a café and a fitness center.

It was known as the “Kai Tak heart attack” — the thrilling, terrifying final approach into Hong Kong’s Kai Tak Airport. Airliners were required to bank sharply at the last moment, dodging hills and apartment blocks to line up with a runway jutting out into Kowloon Bay. The airport is long gone, but international visitors are arriving at Kai Tak again, albeit more sedately. Their cruise ships dock smoothly at Kai Tak Cruise Terminal, a modern gateway designed by Sir Norman Foster.
