Of appeal to discerning, cosmopolitan guests – couples, families and solo travellers alike – EUROPA 2 has been built combining the very best of contemporary, modern design concepts, while providing every amenity expected of a truly luxurious cruise experience. No detail has been spared in the creation of a modern and informal interpretation of luxury cruising – choice and individuality of lifestyle being paramount.
Four months after the laying down of the keel, the EUROPA 2 left the drydock of the shipyard STX France in Saint-Nazaire on 6 July. In the context of a festive ceremony, the dock was flooded and the new addition to the fleet of Hapag-Lloyd Cruises took to the water for the first time.
On April 17, 2012, Hapag-Lloyd Cruises christened their newest addition to the fleet, the COLUMBUS 2. The next expansion step by the Hamburg operator is the completion of the new-build, the MS EUROPA 2.
