The first ship in newly established TUI Cruises fleet, Mein Schiff, has entered service following her ‘fast track’ conversion in Bremerhaven by Lloyd Werft. The former Celebrity Galaxy is the first vessel in a new brand aimed directly at the German market.
Following a short inaugural cruise, the 1,914 passenger capacity Mein Schiff will sail in the Baltic for the 2009 summer season (May through October), offering two to 14-night sailing from ports such as Kiel and Hamburg, Germany, and Palma de Mallorca, Spain. The ship will then reposition to the Caribbean for the winter season (November 2009 through to April 2010), homeporting in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic.
During 2010 and 2011 Mein Schiff will sail itineraries in the Nordic Seas, reaching the Faeroe Islands and Iceland, as well as the eastern and western Mediterranean. TUI Cruises is a joint venture between RCCL and TUI AG, the latter being Europe’s leading travel and shipping group.
