When is Travelmarvel’s Ocean Ship Launching?
Scheduled to enter service in April 2029, the new ocean vessel will offer an intimate small ship experience. Thus, providing access to smaller ports and destinations beyond the reach of larger cruise ships. Its ice-class hull will enable a diverse range of itineraries, including exploration of some of the world’s most remote and remarkable regions.
It will be the first seagoing ship designed and built specifically for Travelmarvel. While the brand has successfully operated ocean cruises for many years through chartered vessels, this landmark investment marks a new chapter in its growth strategy, offering the opportunity to deliver an experience tailored exclusively to Travelmarvel itineraries and its travellers.
