Over 10,000 berths joined the global cruise fleet in July with the deliveries of the MSC Seashore, Virgin’s new Valiant Lady, and the Rotterdam from Holland America Line at the end of the month. All three ships were built by Fincantieri in Italy.

Among key changes for August, the new Njord is now set to be built in Germany for a 2025 delivery, and will be powered by LNG.

Of the 94 new ships on the orderbook, they carry an average cost of just over $600 million with an average passenger capacity of 2,115 guests each.
