Cruise Ships Launching in 2010, 2011 & 2012
New cruise ships are coming out of the ship yards all the time, some times bigger than ever before with seemingly the race between Cruise Lines to produce ships with more and more facilities and more comfortable accomadation high on the list of piorities. But we must not forget the smaller vessels that are being launched with many pushing quality and service levels to new levels.
The next few years are set to be exciting ones with the largest cruise ship ever built the Oasis of the Seas set to hit the waters late in 2009, that is sure to hit new boundaries when it comes to facilities at sea. Then there is the much awaited new addition to Cunard Line the Cunard Queen Elizabeth which saw cabins on its maiden voyage sell out in less than 30 minutes!
