Its no secret that AmaWaterways has big plans for its future and now the river cruise line has revealed some of them with a massive ship order for eight new European river ships scheduled for delivery by 2030.
With these additions, the company’s global fleet will grow to more than 40 ships – doubling its vessel count since 2020. Though this is just a fraction of what Viking offers on rivers around the world, it will maintain AmaWaterways’ position as one of the largest river cruise lines in the world.
“Our expanding fleet is a direct response to the strong demand from guests eager to discover river cruising and Europe’s beautiful rivers,” said Catherine Powell, CEO of AmaWaterways. “These new ships represent exciting opportunities for our valued travel advisor partners and us to grow together. With each new ship, we will continue to sail our guests to the heart of every destination while delivering the high-touch service, elegant design, and immersive experiences that define AmaWaterways.”
Further details on the new ships will be announced in the months ahead.
