American Song takes to water for first time
American Song departed from the Port of New Orleans earlier on her maiden voyage.
Underway at 100 per cent capacity, this historic new riverboat is off to a great start and is cruising the Mississippi River on its eight-day inaugural sailing between New Orleans and Memphis.
American Song’s 184 guests are enjoying an unforgettable cruise with stops at Oak Alley, Baton Rouge, St. Francisville, Natchez, and Vicksburg, arriving in Memphis on Friday.
American Song is the first ship in American Cruise Lines’ new modern riverboat series - the second ship in the series, American Harmony, is already well under construction and will be launched in a few weeks.
After this week’s inaugural cruise, American Song will continue to cruise the Mississippi throughout 2018.

In 2019, American Song will reposition out West to the Columbia & Snake Rivers and second modern riverboat, American Harmony, will begin cruising the Mississippi.
Equipped with every modern advancement, including a unique bow with a retractable gangway, American Song represents the historic evolution of American Riverboats.
Showcasing gorgeous interior design elements, from a five-story glass atrium to spectacular spacious lounges, American Song inspires.
Thoughtfully designed to bring the outside world in, American Song boasts sweeping views throughout the ship.
