While specific details about the vessel remain under wraps, it is confirmed that this ship will represent a new generation of Scenic’s Eclipse vessels. It aims to set new standards in ultra-luxury cruising, combining cutting-edge technology with modern luxury features.
Moroney emphasized the importance of maintaining confidentiality until all project details are finalized. “With this vessel, we’ll be setting new standards in ultra-luxury cruising,” he stated. The launch of this impressive vessel is scheduled for the next year and a half, but the exact specifications and features are yet to be disclosed. The anticipation surrounding this project reflects Scenic’s commitment to innovation and excellence in the cruise industry. As the construction progresses, the maritime community eagerly awaits further announcements regarding this groundbreaking addition to Scenic’s fleet.
