I hope this edition can provide some reflec- tions and inspiration that can help to create a safer, smarter and greener cruise industry. © DNV GL/Per Sverre Wold-Hansen Sverre GL/Per © DNV There is no industry like the cruise industry. Later this year, we celebrate the 50th anni- versary of the keel-laying of the Sunward, the vessel that started the era of the modern cruise industry in 1966. Over the years, we have seen an incredible improvement in what cruise ships can offer passengers. The vessels are becoming more and more advanced as regards both maritime technology and passenger experience. The cruise industry is often seen as leading when it comes to implementing new technology and to be con- stantly striving to find better solutions.

With our new arrival, we have again set the focus on measures aimed at environmental protection. Just like our other new- builds, the features of this ship include outstanding energy-effi ciency and a comprehen- sive system of exhaust gas treatment. To date we are the only cruise company in the world to have consciously decided to not simply operate these exhaust gas treatment systems inside the special emission control areas according to the regulations. As we believe environmental protection is not subject to geographical borders, we deploy the systems on a continuous basis, worldwide and around the clock. In addition to this, we pursued our concept of continuous improvement in environmen- tal protection through numerous activities throughout the reporting year.

PUBLISHER’S DETAILS AND CREDITS 3 EDITORIAL Ladies and Gentlemen, When I took over as Chairwoman of the Management Board of TUI Cruises in October 2014, the topic of environmental protection was at the very top of my agenda. I quickly noticed how soundly the efforts towards sustainability and a careful approach in dealing with the environment are established within the company. This provides the best possible conditions for jointly pursuing the adopted course and officially declaring our ambitious objective at the beginning of this year to operate the world’s lowest-emission fleet of cruise liners. Crucial milestones on our way to this objective are our two newbuild vessels Mein Schiff 3 and Mein Schiff 4, which was christened in Kiel at the beginning of June. In both vessels, maximum energy efficiency as the guiding principle for design, engineering and construction have brought about impressive results.
