Cruise Lines Place Ships on the for Sale List.


Costa Cruises Costa Victoria has been sold for scrap at 24 years old.

 As reported in my earlier predictions for the cruise industry during / post coronavirus - many of my predictions are coming true including the premature scrapping of cruise ship well before their time.

Carnival Corporation announced that up to 6 ships will be sold / scrapped in between now and the end of the month.

Already the Costa Victoria, of Carnival Corp's Costa Cruises,  which was supposed to be used as an accommodation ship for shipyard workers has now reportedly been sold for scrap. Additional ships reported on the for sale list include the Carnival Fantasy class ships and in a surprise move the Carnival Sunrise, which just recently completed a massive $100M refit is on the for sale list for $350K.

Reports that Royal Caribbean has also placed a number of ships on the for sale list including the Grandeur of the Seas, Rhapsody of the Seas and the Empress of the Seas. 

In a recent interview, the President of Norwegian Cruise Line stated that he did not see ship scrapping / retirement in the future of the company. Frank del Rio stated that the average age of its ships are approximately 10 years.

Only time will tell which ships will end up on the for sale list and sold.

Norwegian Cruise Line's Norwegian Escape Heads to Singapore.

Image
    Norwegian Cruise Line's Norwegian Escape Heading From Manila to Singapore. Norwegian Cruise Line's Norwegian Escape repatriated crew home to the Philippines. The ship has been in Manila harbor for months but is now on the move to Singapore - it is unclear whether she has a full crew as she heads west.  The Norwegian Escape is expected to arrive in Singapore on August 21. Singapore has substantial facilities for ship repair and renovation so it is unclear if the call is to refuel, enter drydock or just to remain local for Asia cruises. The Norwegian Escape was a fixture in the New York to Bermuda Cruise circuit in 2019, calling weekly during the spring / summer / fall, to the island nation. In addition, the Norwegian Escape conducted cruises to New England and Canada as well as Florida and the Bahamas. Stay tuned to NYCruiseInfo to find out what's next for the Norwegian Escape.
