Regent Seven Seas orders new luxury ship

Thursday, 16 Jan, 2019 0

 

Regent Seven Seas Cruises has ordered a luxury sister ship to Seven Seas Explorer and Seven Seas Splendor.

With delivery scheduled in late 2023, the cruise line claims it will be the most luxurious ship ever built.

Accommodating up to 750 guests, it will be the company’s sixth all-suite vessel.

Details about itineraries, suites, restaurants, amenities and onboard experiences will be revealed leading up to her 2023 debut.

Voyages for the inaugural season will go on sale in 2021.

"When Seven Seas Splendor’s inaugural season went on sale in April 2018 we set a new single-day booking record for our 26-year-old company, demonstrating the anticipation for her 2020 arrival," said Jason Montague, president and chief executive officer of Regent Seven Seas Cruises.

"Each new ship is progressively more successful. Our growth is a reflection of the amazing people who work across our fleet, our valued shoreside employees, our loyal guests and their trusted travel advisors."

Frank Del Rio, president and chief executive officer of parent Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings, added: "This new ship further strengthens our company’s robust yet measured growth profile with vessels now on order for all three of our award-winning brands, enabling us to expand our presence globally, further diversify our product offerings and continue to drive shareholder returns."

The order has been placed with Italian shipbuilder Fincantieri, which is currently building Seven Seas Splendor at its Ancona shipyard.
