Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings Ltd has announced a new ship order with Fincantieri for its ultra-luxury brand Regent Seven Seas Cruises, confirming that a third Prestige-Class vessel will join the fleet in 2033.

The agreement reinforces the company’s commitment to expanding within the luxury cruise sector and extends its long-standing partnership with the Italian shipbuilder.
Continuing Regent’s Prestige-Class Expansion
The new vessel will follow the debut of Seven Seas Prestige in 2026, and a second ship of the same class in 2030. The Prestige-Class series marks Regent’s first new ship class in a decade, building upon the success of its acclaimed Explorer-Class ships.
“This newbuild order continues our measured, strategic expansion within the luxury space, providing guests with yet another way to experience the unrivalled aboard The World’s Most Luxurious Fleet,”
“It reflects our confidence in the growing demand for Regent’s best-in-class offering and reaffirms our long-standing partnership with Fincantieri, one rooted in craftsmanship and a shared pursuit of perfection.”
Jason Montague, Chief Luxury Officer for Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings Ltd.
Larger, More Spacious, and Ultra-Luxurious
When Seven Seas Prestige debuts in 2026, it will mark a new era for Regent. The 77,000-gross-ton ship will be 40% larger than the line’s existing vessels but will carry only 10% more guests, maintaining one of the highest space-to-guest and crew-to-guest ratios at sea.

With capacity for 822 guests and 630 crew members, the ship promises even greater personal service and a heightened sense of exclusivity.
Innovative Suites and Refined Design
All accommodation aboard the Prestige-Class ships will feature private balconies, with 12 suite categories, including four entirely new designs.

These range from the Skyview Regent Suite – the largest all-inclusive, ultra-luxury cruise suite ever built – to the two-level Skyview and Grand Loft Suites.
The ship will also feature 11 distinct dining experiences, offering an extensive global culinary journey curated to reflect Regent’s signature commitment to excellence. A new dining venue concept will be revealed closer to launch.
Strengthening the Luxury Market
The order highlights Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings’ growing investment in the luxury and upper-premium market segments, an area the company has steadily developed through Regent Seven Seas Cruises and Oceania Cruises.
The collaboration with Fincantieri also continues a relationship spanning decades, during which the shipyard has delivered several of the group’s most acclaimed vessels.
With all three Prestige-Class ships now on order or under construction, Regent Seven Seas Cruises is positioning itself to strengthen its reputation as “The World’s Most Luxurious Fleet” well into the next decade.
