Just in Time

Last week we told you about AIDA's next generation ship which will be powered by LNG and will enter service in December 2018. As we noted, AIDA will begin taking reservations for the inaugural season tomorrow (June 1), but its name had yet to be revealed.

AIDA took care of that detail this afternoon when it was revealed during a presentation aboard AIDAperla, which just entered service in the Mediterranean. It was revealed when a banner was unfurled at Meyer Werft in Papenburg (Germany) where the new ship and a sister will be built. The new ship will be named AIDAnova.

Details appeared in the May 31 edition of Cruise News Daily.
