Dream Cruises takes delivery of World Dream

The 335m-long vessel, designed and built for Asia’s rapidly expanding cruise market, has capacity for about 3,370 passengers and can cruise at 23 knots. Features include a small deep-sea submarine capable of taking passengers on underwater exploration trips to depths of up to 200m, and a fast motorboat for excursions with a top speed of 37 knots.
The 20-deck DNV GL-classed vessel, to be home-ported in Hong Kong, will initially provide itineraries in China and Vietnam. It has no fewer than 35 restaurants and bars as well as theatres, a climbing park, plenty of space for other outdoor activities, and a large range of virtual reality applications.
The ship’s construction was supported by Germany’s Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy (BMWi) with regional backing from the country’s north-western state of Lower Saxony. The World Dream is the 44th cruise ship delivered by Meyer Werft and will fly the Bahamas flag.
