Lüftner orders additional 135m vessel from Shipyard De Hoop

Lüftner Cruises of Austria has placed an order for a three-deck river cruise ship from Dutch builder Shipyard De Hoop.

The 135- by 11.5-metre vessel will be a near identical sister of Amadeus Imperial (pictured), which is due for delivery this spring, the 2016-built Amadeus Silver III, and the 2018-built Amadeus Queen.

The yet unnamed river cruise ship is De Hoop's 16th newbuilding project for Lüftner. It is scheduled to be delivered in March 2021.
