The crocieristica company Princess Cruises of the group American Carnival Corporation has confirmed the order for the construction of two cruise ships with the navalmeccanico group Italian Fincantieri, for which last July the parts had signed a preliminary understanding ( on 23 July 2018). The two units of 175 thousand tons of tonnage, that they will be the greatest cruise ships never constructed in Italy, will be constructed in the ship yard of Monfalcone and will be delivered at the end of 2023 and in the spring of 2025.
Commenting the order for the two ships, that they will have an ability to about 4.300 passengers, the managing director of Fincantieri, Giuseppe Bono, has remembered that up to now the company has received orders for 21 destined ships to Princess Cruises, number of store clerks record for a company in this segment of the navalmeccanica industry.
