Discovery Princess.Pdf Presseinformation 7. Oktober 2019 Discovery Princess debütiert im November 2021 im Mittelmeer – Sechstes und letztes Schiff der Royal-Klasse München – Discovery Princess lautet der jetzt veröffentlichte Name des sechsten Royal-Class-Kreuzfahrtschiffs der US-Reederei Princess Cruises. Der derzeit auf der Fincantieri-Werft in Monfalcone, Italien, entstehende Neubau debütiert am 3. November 2021 im Rahmen einer einwöchigen Mittelmeer- und Ägäis-Kreuzfahrt von Rom (Civitavecchia) nach Athen. Buchungen für Reisen mit dem 3.660 Passagieren Platz bietende Schiff sind ab dem 8. Oktober 2019 möglich. Die Eröffnungssaison der Discovery Princess umfasst 30 Abfahrten mit 21 einzigartigen Routen zu mehr als 50 Zielen in 23 Ländern. Zu den Highlights gehören zum Beispiel ein- bis drei Wochen lange Fahrten im November 2021 durch das Mittelmeer. Als Abfahrtshäfen stehen dabei Rom, Athen oder Barcelona zur Auswahl. Im Dezember desselben Jahres wird die Discovery Princess dann in der Karibik unterwegs sein und dabei als erstes Schiff der Flotte auch die Insel Tortula anlaufen. Januar und Februar des Folgejahres stehen dagegen ganz im Zeichen Südamerikas. Dabei steuert das neue Flaggschiff 22 Häfen in elf Ländern des Kontinents an und bleibt in ausgewählten Metropolen wie Rio, Buenos Aires oder Lima sogar über Nacht. Ab März geht es dann vom neuen Heimathafen Los Angeles aus auf unterschiedlich langen Fahrten entlang der US-Westküste und der mexikanischen Riviera mit Aufenthalten u.a. in Cabo San Lucas, San Diego sowie San Francisco. Mit der Discovery Princess entsteht derzeit das sechste und letzte Schiff der Royal-Klasse. 2023 und 2025 sollen die ersten beiden Einheiten einer neuen, mit Flüssiggas angetriebenen Baureihe auf den Markt kommen.

  • Varata a Monfalcone La “Discovery Princess”
    27 Settembre 2021 - Livorno: Guardia Costiera “ferma” nave in porto LIVORNO – La Guardia Costiera ha disposto il “fermo” di una nave nel porto labronico. Nel quadro del più ampio progetto di tutela della vita umana in mare e dell’ambiente marino e costiero che vede fortemente impegnato il Corpo delle Capitanerie di Porto, nella giornata di ieri gli uomini della Guardia Costiera di Livorno – Nucleo Port State Control, hanno emanato il provvedimento di “fermo” nei confronti della nave da carico generale denominata “Saffet Aga”, ai sensi della Direttiva 2009/16 dell’Unione europea, recepita con il D.Lgs 53 del 2011. https://www.messaggeromarittimo.it/tag/nave/ | 27 Settembre 2021 - 27 Settembre 2021 - Il provvedimento è stato adottato al termine di una dettagliata ispezione dell’unità che, in base alle vigenti normative internazionali in materia di sicurezza della navigazione, è risultata essere in condizioni “sub-standard”. In particolare, sono emerse gravi carenze in materia di prevenzione degli incendi a bordo, in materia di prevenzione dell’inquinamento marino da idrocarburi, nonché in materia di preparazione e risposta alle emergenze da parte dell’equipaggio. Al momento l’unità risulta ancora ferma in porto, in attesa che vengano ripristinati gli standard minimi per poter essere nuovamente autorizzata a navigare. L’unità dovrà poi essere sottoposta a specifici controlli da parte degli ispettori dell’Ente Tecnico “Bureau Veritas”, responsabile del rilascio della certificazione di sicurezza per conto della bandiera Barbados. Giova ricordare che il Nucleo PSC della Capitaneria di Porto di Porto di Livorno, guidata dal contrammiraglio Gaetano Angora ha da sempre profuso notevoli sforzi nella lotta al fenomeno delle “navi sub-standard” che, in difformità alle convenzioni internazionali, navigano con gravissimo rischio per la sicurezza della navigazione e dell’ambiente marino nonché per la sicurezza e per le condizioni di vita delle persone che sulle navi vivono e lavorano.

  • Varata a Monfalcone “Discovery Princess”
    FINCANTIERI: VARATA A MONFALCONE “DISCOVERY PRINCESS” Trieste, 18 marzo 2021 – È stata varata oggi, nello stabilimento Fincantieri di Monfalcone, “Discovery Princess”, la sesta unità della classe Royal, costruita per la società armatrice Princess Cruises, brand del Gruppo Carnival Corporation. Inizierà ora la fase degli allestimenti degli interni che porterà alla consegna della nave il prossimo anno. Realizzata sulla base del progetto delle gemelle “Royal Princess”, “Regal Princess”, “Majestic Princess”, “Sky Princess” ed “Enchanted Princess”, costruite e consegnate sempre dallo sito di Monfalcone a partire dal 2013, inaugurando una nuova generazione di navi che hanno riscontrato un enorme successo tra il pubblico dei crocieristi, la nuova unità avrà una stazza lorda di 145.000 tonnellate. La nave, al pari delle unità gemelle, rappresenterà un nuovo punto di riferimento tecnologico a livello europeo e mondiale per il lay-out innovativo, le elevatissime performance e l’alta qualità di soluzioni tecniche navali d’avanguardia e sarà la migliore prova che innovazione e cura del rapporto con il cliente sono leve imprescindibili per affermare la propria leadership sul mercato e consolidare ulteriormente la storica partnership di Fincantieri con il Gruppo Carnival Corporation, primo operatore al mondo del settore crocieristico. Il rapporto tra il cantiere di Monfalcone e Princess Cruises proseguirà con le 2 navi da crociera di prossima generazione da 175.000 tonnellate di stazza lorda, le più grandi finora realizzate in Italia.

  • Cruise Ship Locations 16 May 2021
    CRUISE SHIP LOCATIONS 16 MAY 2021 Compiled by Mike Pryce, Wellington NZ (Information believed correct at this date. Compiled from various sources and internet AIS, especially www.cruisemapper.com. Excludes ferries and cruise ferries. Many cruise ships have been in “warm” lay-up, when they have periodically moved from their berths or anchorages and gone for short voyages locally to give their engines and equipment “a run”, and including production of freshwater, before returning to lay-up. Ships at anchor periodically need to berth to take onboard fuel, food, provisions and other supplies. Some inter-ship crew transfers at sea are being made, outside port limits. With the resumption of “normal” cruising looking very uncertain in many countries in the near future, more cruise ships are likely to move to “cold” lay-up until the situation becomes clearer, whilst others go into shipyards for overhauls and surveys. Many cruise ships have been in lay-up for over a year, as the initial “pause” has been continually extended due to more Covid-19 outbreaks, and many financial assumptions made on the expectation of an initial two-months lockdown have needed reviewing. This has resulted in many recent sales of older ships, and limited cruising in the Mediterranean and Europe, where these areas are being affected by sporadic outbreaks in Covid-19 infections. The largest concentration of laid-up cruise ships is on the Bahamas Banks (east of Miami and south of Freeport) A large number of cruise ships are anchored off the south coast of England, west of Southampton. Another large group are anchored in the South China Sea, NE of Singapore.
