What a crazy 3 days its been.
Here’s a recap of what we’ve seen so far:
TUI’s Newbuild which was the Buzz of the Conference
MSC Negotiating 2-ship Order Plus Former Lybian Ship
Seatrade Europe Day 1 Recap: TUI, MSC and AIDA
River Cruise Panel from Seatrade Europe
Cruise Europe celebrated its 20th anniversary
Yard Execs Criticize Japan’s Mitsubishi on AIDA pricing
Seatrade Europe: River Cruises Part II
Now lets look at our checklist and see how I did:
- Perhaps we will see if anything will come out of the Mysterious TUI newbuild
- We certainly did
- Perhaps we will see someone *cough* MSC *cough* purchase the partially constructed Libyan ship sitting in France.
- While MSC didn’t finalize the order in time, they still made it clear they were going to be the buyers.
- More renders of the Royal Princess
- Big NOPE on that one
- Announcements regarding future European Deployments
- Yup. Well ok it was just Princess and when I wore this I was thinking perhaps more lines would take advantage of this venue. But its still technically true right?
- And finally some River Cruising news
- And boy did we ever. Just like at the worlds first ever River Cruise Day
So not bad, 4/5. Its still an 80% right?
