TUI Cruises annuncia i primi dettagli della nuova nave
Benessere, relax e divertimento di alta qualità sono l’epitome delle crociere con la flotta Mein Schiff. L’ottava nave della flotta, la prima di una nuova classe di navi, è attualmente in costruzione nei cantieri Fincantieri di Monfalcone. Ed è già chiaro: la prima delle due navi che saranno costruite in questo cantiere porterà la sensazione di Mein Schiff a un nuovo livello: vivere il benessere in un modo nuovo!
Experience well-being in a new way – that is what the eighth ship in the Mein Schiff fleet stands for
TUI Cruises announces the first details of the ship’s new construction
Well-being, relaxation and high-quality enjoyment are the epitome of cruises with the Mein Schiff fleet. The eighth ship in the fleet, the first of a new class of ships, is currently under construction in the F incantieri shipyard in Monfalcone, Italy. And it is already clear: The first of the two new buildings to be built in this shipyard will take the Mein Schiff feeling to a new level: experience well-being in a new way!
The ship will offer regular guests and cruise enthusiasts an even more diverse culinary journey through particularly high-quality worlds of indulgence. It will offer new and even more opportunities to relax in architecturally spectacular oases of well-being. When it comes to cabins and suites, Mein Schiff caters even more to the needs of cruise travelers, creating a very special holiday feeling: spa and wellness are being redefined and high-class entertainment and worlds of experience will be found on this ship, which is scheduled to go into service at the end of 2024 new home.
With all the great innovations, it is important to TUI Cruises to continue what is popular with guests. That’s why the Mein Schiff premium inclusive services also apply to this new build, making your vacation even more carefree and the costs for unique trips calculable.
“We are pleased that we have consistently further developed the Mein Schiff concept together with the Fincantieri shipyard and all the architects, designers and our very committed employees, so that every single deck stands for one thing: ‘Experiencing well-being in a new way'”, says Wybcke Meier, CEO TUI Cruises. “ Feedback from our guests is important to us and always flows into our new buildings. Therefore, this ship convinces with a lot of freedom for individual needs, innovative culinary concepts and a completely redesigned entertainment world.
Sustainable growth: First gas-powered ship
TUI Cruises is also focusing on environmental and climate protection with the new ship class: This new building runs on liquid gas. In the future, the ship can also be operated with low-emission and climate-friendly bio and E-LNG – an important step towards climate-neutral cruising. In addition, it will be equipped with improved catalytic converters (nitrogen oxide reduction to Euro 6 standard) and a shore power connection. This ensures almost zero-emission ship operation while the ship is in port (about 40 percent of the operating time). In order to achieve even more efficient waste processing, the ship will be equipped with an innovative system that can shred organic waste through thermal treatment and prepare it for further use on land.
“The investment in LPG-powered ships is an important step on the way to emission-free and climate-neutral cruises. LNG serves as a bridging technology here. In the future, we will use BIO-LNG or E-LNG, which is generated either from biogenic sources or synthetically from renewable energy,” explains Wybcke Meier.
TUI Cruises intends to offer the first climate-neutral cruises by 2030. The shipping company already has one of the most modern and environmentally friendly cruise fleets in the world: All new ships built to date are characterized by their outstanding energy efficiency and consume around 30 percent less fuel than ships of a comparable size. In addition, they are equipped with a combined exhaust aftertreatment system consisting of an exhaust gas washer (“scrubber”) and catalytic converters, which reduces sulfur emissions by up to 99 percent, nitrogen oxide emissions by up to 75 percent and particle emissions by up to 60 percent.
