About American Jazz
American Jazz entered service in 2020 as the third of American Cruise Lines' American Riverboats, a 180-guest design built by Chesapeake Shipbuilding in Salisbury, Maryland. Like American Harmony it has an extra deck of cabins, for six decks in all, around a five-story glass atrium. All staterooms have private balconies and range from 250 to 615 square feet. An opening bow with a retractable gangway is used to bring guests aboard. The ship has been sailing the Columbia and Snake rivers between Portland, Oregon, and Clarkston, Washington, and in September 2026 the line listed it among its Mississippi River ships as well.
