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.
