Clarea Posted May 15, 2012 #2 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Anyone know when RCCL is expected to start the build of their new class of ship? Very little has been revealed about the new ships. They have announced 2 ships, to be delivered in 2014 and 2015. About 4000 passengers, slightly larger than Freedom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mairem17 Posted May 15, 2012 #3 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Anyone know when RCCL is expected to start the build of their new class of ship? Since the first one is due out in Fall of 2015, the steel might start getting cut from 2 years to 1.5 years before that. Around 1.25 - 1 year before the ship is delivered is when they will actually start putting it together. But don't count on me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mairem17 Posted May 15, 2012 #6 Share Posted May 15, 2012 I thought the first ship was due in the fall of 2014. Yea I know, I made a mistake. I was thinking of the second ship which is due in Spring of 2015 and the first one will be Fall of 2014. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diva Onboard Posted May 16, 2012 Author #10 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Well - we will be eagerly waiting for more news on the Fall 2014 launch. According to everyone's thoughts, they should start building this fall or next spring. I like the art rendering - it speaks volumes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLASHINGLIGHTS83 Posted May 16, 2012 #11 Share Posted May 16, 2012 chances are they are getting ready to start laying the keel for the 1st ship. You will know when that happens because there will be a press release through RCCL about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLASHINGLIGHTS83 Posted May 16, 2012 #12 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Here you go....this is a link from the shipyards website that is going to build the Sunshine class for RCCL. http://www.meyerwerft.de/page.asp?lang=e&main=3&subs=0&did=2027 It shows the 1st piece of keel being laid for the NCL's first Breakaway CLass ship being laid on May 8, with an expected delivery in Spring of 2013.
