Regent Seven Seas Cruises has placed an order with Italian ship builder Fincantieri for a third Prestige class ship to be delivered in 2033

The yet-to-be named vessel will be sister ship to Seven Seas Prestige, the first in the new class, which is currently under construction at the Marghera shipyard and set for delivery in 2026.

A second ship in the same class is already scheduled for delivery in 2030. With a gross tonnage of 77,000 tons and a length of 257 meters, the third vessel in the class will host 822 passengers.

“This newbuild order continues our measured, strategic expansion within the luxury space, providing guests with yet another way to experience the unrivaled aboard The World’s Most Luxurious Fleet,” said Jason Montague, chief luxury officer at Regent parent Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings.

“It reflects our confidence in the growing demand for Regent’s best-in-class offering and reaffirms our long-standing partnership with Fincantieri, one rooted in craftsmanship and shared pursuit of perfection.”

Pierroberto Folgiero, CEO and managing director of Fincantieri, added: “Our long-term strategic expansion with Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings, established over the past years through multiple successful orders, continues to strengthen our collaboration, especially within the ultra-luxury segment represented by Regent Seven Seas Cruises.

“This latest contract confirms the trust NCLH places in Fincantieri’s expertise to deliver innovative, sustainable, and exquisitely crafted ships that meet the evolving aspirations of the luxury cruise market.”

He continued: “As the industry embraces new challenges and opportunities, including stronger environmental commitments and enhanced guest experiences, Fincantieri remains fully dedicated to supporting our clients’ growth strategies and the future of cruising worldwide.”
