The company is sending the "Mein Schiff 7" out to sea in early summer. The new ship will not have normal fuel in its tank, but low-emission marine diesel.
In the future, the ship will run on green methanol, as Tui writes on its website. Tui wants to follow suit with another new cruise ship in the winter of 2024/25. The "Aida Nova" and the "Aida Cosma' are already running on LNG, and Tui is also planning to do the same with its next ship, the Mein Schiff Relax, which will be built in 2024/2025..Climate killer cruise ship: Some shipping companies are working on environmentally friendly technology for the future.
