Marella Cruises today announced the fifth cruise ship joining its fleet, which will launch in 2023. The cruise line will welcome Marella Voyager which is currently sailing under TUI Cruises as Mein Schiff Herz. The Century-class ship was originally built for Celebrity Cruises and is identical sister ship to Marella Explorer.

Marella Voyager will be sailing from the US in 2023, from Port Canaveral, Mr Chris Hackney, Managing Director of Cruise for TUI UK said, including overnight stays in New York and Tampa.

“After a challenging year for the industry we couldn’t be more thrilled to finally announce we’ll be welcoming Marella Voyager, the fifth ship in our fleet, in Spring 2023 with her first sailing taking place in June, Mr Hackney said. "This ship builds on our already popular fleet and offers loyal customers and new customers more choice. We know what our customers like and so we want to ensure we keep some Marella Cruises favourites but also adding a different flavour to Marella Voyager too.”

With Marella Voyager the company plans to expand its programme allowing guests to experience once-in-a-lifetime dream cruises sailing out from the USA.
