In Italy, Carnival Corporation & plc is investing heavily in multiple lines with orders for new and ever-more innovative vessels. Coming up will be two new ships for Germany’s most popular cruise line, AIDA Cruises, the first ever to be built for the line by Italian shipbuilder Fincantieri.
Most interesting for fuel efficiency is that the new ships will be specifically engineered to utilize multiple types of fuel, including liquid natural gas (LNG), biodiesel, and next-generation sustainable fuels. This will ensure great flexibility with the vessels’ operation and their ability to evolve as new fuel technologies are developed. Such adaptiveness can help new ships have a long and productive service life.
