Your Ship

American Jazz

A 328-foot riverboat with an opening bow, and the Columbia ship that leans hardest on the two-week national parks trip

Aboard

  • Third of the line's modern riverboat series, after American Song and American Harmony
  • 99 staterooms for 180 guests, every stateroom with a private balcony
  • An eight-foot draft and a hydraulic opening bow with a retractable gangway
  • A five-story glass atrium running up the middle of the hull
  • Delivered in 2020, when almost nothing else in the cruise business was being handed over
  • Eight-night Columbia and Snake River runs, Portland to Clarkston
  • A fortnight-long National Parks itinerary that leaves the river for Yellowstone and Jackson
  • Ran aground on the Cumberland River in July 2021 and was refloated without injury
