Crystal Cruises Finalizes Order of Third New-Build 🛳️🛳️🛳️ Italian shipbuilder Fincantieri and ultra-luxury line Crystal have finalized another ship order that adds a third new-build to the cruise line’s growing fleet. The finalization of the order was announced on November 7, 2024, after the cruise line exercised an option that was included in a two-ship order signed in June 2024. Crystal currently operates two ships, Crystal Serenity and Crystal Symphony. With the two ship orders from June and the third just revealed, the cruise line will more than double its fleet, to five vessels. Delivery of the first new-build is slated for spring 2028. No handover timeline has yet been announced for the second ship or for this latest option. However, it is likely that the second and third new ships will debut within about three years after the first delivery. “This order underscores Fincantieri’s continued leadership in the high-tech shipbuilding sector, with a focus on innovative, sustainable units designed to meet the evolving demands of the cruise market,” Fincantieri said in its announcement. https://lnkd.in/e8cMNhCU

Carnival Corporation faces a $10M impact as cruises shift from Baltimore, affecting earnings and rerouting cruises. Passengers on affected cruises are being transported back to Baltimore from a temporary homeport in Norfolk. Sister ships will take over homeport operations in Baltimore to ensure continuity. Other cruise lines, like Royal Caribbean and American Cruise Lines, are also exploring alternatives for their operations. Norwegian Cruise Line is monitoring the situation for its upcoming cruises later in the year. #MarinerNews #MaritimeIndustry #ShippingNews #Shipping #Maritime
