The VIP event marking the development of Seven Seas Prestige™ took place at the Fincantieri-Marghera shipyard in Venice in front of a stellar group of cruise executives and guests.
“Seven Seas Prestige represents a new era for Regent Seven Seas Cruises as we once again elevate standards in ultra luxury, all-inclusive vacations,” said Andrea DeMarco, President of Regent Seven Seas Cruises.
“We are delighted to continue our long-established relationship with Fincantieri, a storied name in shipbuilding.
“This talented team will deliver a ship that transcends luxury, exuding elegance and refinement, while radiating sophistication in every way, from bow to stern.”
Seven Seas Prestige will boast one of the highest space to guest ratios in the cruise industry with a gross tonnage of 77,000 and hosting up to only 850 guests.
With more Unrivalled Space at Sea® than ever before the ship will introduce new soon to be announced innovations, such as the reimagination of the palatial Regent Suite, new accommodation categories and new dining experiences.
Set to be delivered in 2026, the vessel will be the first of two Prestige-Class ships – Regent’s first new ship class in 10 years – following the highly successful Explorer-Class ships launched in 2016, 2020 and 2023.
