Italian shipbuilder Fincantieri has launched the second of two LNG-fuelled cruise ships in a series ordered from the company by German operator TUI Cruises.

Like sister ship Mein Schiff Relax, which was delivered in February 2025, Mein Schiff Flow will have a gross tonnage of 160,000 and space for 3,984 guests upon completion. Onboard facilities will include 14 restaurants, 17 bars and lounges, a spa, a wellness area, and an infinity pool.

The stateroom options will include inside and outside single cabins of 11 square metres each and suites with areas ranging from 25 to 88 square metres. Many of the outside cabins and suites will have balconies while there will be two six-person suites split between two decks and with private saunas and living rooms.

The ship will also boast emissions-reducing features such as a waste heat recovery system, a shore power charging system, and EU Stage VI-compliant catalytic converters.

Mein Schiff Flow is scheduled to enter service in the middle of 2026.
