In 2007 the Cruise Industry
will be introducing at least 10 new cruise ships, and cruise
lines are optimistic that the coming year will be a record
year for Cruising. The Norwegian Pearl, Carnival Freedom,
Royal Princess, Emerald Princess, Liberty of the Seas, Fram,
Celebrity Journey, Costa Serena, Norwegian Gem, and Queen
Victoria are all new builds. Cruisers will all have more
ships to choose from in 2007!
The NCL Norwegian Pearl was christened in December 2006,
essentially making her a new cruise ship for 2007. The
Norwegian Pearl is the third in the "Jewel class" of
ships for NCL, joining her sisters the Norwegian Jewel
and Pride of Hawaii in the NCL fleet.
The Pearl carries 2,380 passengers and is 93,000 GRT.
She is the first ship with a bowling alley, and is
designed for NCL's "freestyle cruising", with a dozen
restaurants.
The Pearl alternates 5 and 9-day cruises to the
Caribbean year-round. |
| Carnival Freedom - Carnival
Cruise Lines |
The Carnival Freedom will be
launched in early March in Venice, Italy. She is the fifth
"Conquest class" ships for Carnival, and will
be joining the Conquest, Valor, Glory, and Liberty in the
Carnival fleet. At 110,000 GRT and carrying 2,974 passengers,
the Carnival Freedom is too large to pass through the Panama
Canal.
The Carnival Freedom will sail the Mediterranean in the
spring, summer, and fall of 2007 before crossing the
Atlantic to the Caribbean for the winter. She will also
sail the Mediterranean in 2008. |
| Royal Princess - Princess
Cruises |
The 710-passenger Royal Princess
was first launched in 2001 by Renaissance Cruises as the
R8. After Renaissance ceased operations, the ship sailed
as the Minerva II for Swan Hellenic. In March 2006, Carnival
Corp., the parent company of both Swan Hellenic and Princess,
announced that the Minerva II would move to Princess and
sail as the Royal Princess.
In April 2007, the new Royal Princess joins two other
"R-class" ships sailing for Princess -- the Tahitian
Princess and the Pacific Princess. Royal Princess will
sail five new Mediterranean itineraries through late
2007. |
| Emerald Princess - Princess
Cruises |
The 116,000 GRT Emerald Princess
will join the Princess fleet as a new build and member of
the "Grand class" of ships carrying from 2,600
to 3,100 passengers. Her sister ships of similar design
are the Caribbean, Crown, Grand, Golden, and Star Princess.
The Emerald Princess will sail her first cruise in April
from Venice, Italy and be christened along with the
Royal Princess in Santorini, Greece on May 12.
The Emerald Princess will sail the Mediterranean until
the fall of 2007 when she will reposition to the
Caribbean for the 2007-2008 winter season. |
| Liberty of the Seas - Royal
Caribbean International (RCI) |
The largest cruise ship afloat,
the Freedom of the Seas, will have some competition in May
2007 when the Liberty of the Seas joins the RCI fleet. At
160,000 GRT and carrying 3,600 passengers, the Liberty of
the Seas is the same size as her sister the Freedom of the
Seas.
The Liberty of the Seas has all the amenities of the
Freedom and will sail the eastern and western Caribbean
on 7-day cruises. |
| MS Fram - Norwegian Coastal
Voyage (NCV) |
| The 12,700 GRT, 318 passenger
MS Fram is scheduled for its maiden voyage in April, 2007.
The christening ceremony will take place in Oslo on May
19, 2007. The Fram is an expedition ship sailing the North
Atlantic to Greenland, Iceland, and points north in the
summer and Antarctica in the winter. The Fram will have
an interesting Pole to Pole longitudinal world cruise in
its first season, starting in Greenland in September and
ending in Antarctica and South America 66 days later. |
| Celebrity Journey - Celebrity
Cruises |
Princess is not the only cruise
line adding one of the former "R-class" ships
to its fleet in 2007. The 30,000 GRT, 710-passenger Celebrity
Journey (originally the R6) joins the Celebrity fleet in
May 2007. The Celebrity Journey sailed most recently as
the Blue Dream of Pulmantur, which was acquired by Celebrity's
parent company RCI in late 2006.
The Celebrity Journey will sail a series of Bermuda
cruises from Cape Liberty, New Jersey in the summer and
fall of 2007 before repositioning to South America and
Antarctica for the winter of 2007-2008. |
| Costa Serena - Costa Cruises |
| The 112,000 GRT, 3000 passenger
Costa Serena will be the second ship in the "Concordia
class" to join the Costa fleet when she is christened
in May 2007. The Costa Serena and Costa Concordia are the
largest Costa cruise ships. The Costa Serena will sail the
Mediterranean through at least 2007. |
| Norwegian Gem - Norwegian
Cruise Line (NCL) |
The Norwegian Gem will be another
NCL ship in the "Jewel class". The 93,000 GRT
Norwegian Gem will carry 2,380 passengers and feature the
numerous restaurants necessary for NCL's "freestyle
cruising". The Norwegian Gem also has a bowling alley
and the other amenities found on her sister ships.
The Norwegian Gem joins the NCL fleet in October 2007 in
the Mediterranean and cruises there before moving to New
York in early December 2007. The Gem will then sail to
the Caribbean from New York on cruises of varying
lengths and itineraries. |
| Queen Victoria - Cunard Line |
The 90,000 GRT, 2000 passenger
Queen Victoria is the last new ship of 2007. She will be
christened in Southampton, UK on December 11, 2007. The
Queen Victoria is similar to the Holland America Line "Vista-class"
vessels. Cunard plans some special touches to the Victoria,
including private viewing boxes in the Royal Court Theater,
alfresco dining for Grill guests, a floating museum display
of Cunard memorabilia (Cunardia), and a two-story library
with nearly 6,000 books.
The Queen Victoria can transit the Panama Canal, and she
will embark on her first world cruise in January 2008 |
