Weighing more than 142,500 tons and measuring almost 300 metres in length, Prima-class cruise ships can accommodate 3,215 guests.

The Prima-class is based on a prototype project developed by Fincantieri with a focus on energy efficiency, a twofold aim of optimising consumption at sea and reducing environmental impact.

The cruise ships are also compliant with all the most recent regulations on this matter, the shipbuilder said.
