Marella Cruises’ new ship Marella Voyager is preparing to set sail on its maiden voyage after a christening in Malaga.

Marella says the ship offers more choice and flexibility to customers with new venues onboard, including Silver Fork, which offers British classics with a twist; a new Mexican restaurant called Abuela’s and an ‘out-of-the-way bar with some surprises’, called The Exchange.

Singer Becky Hill performed at the launch, on Wednesday evening.

Managing Director Chris Hackney, said: “The launch of Marella Voyager marks an exciting moment in time for us, so it was an honour to have Becky Hill join us in celebrating such a fantastic night.

“The audience loved her, and the evening was a true celebration of the hard work and dedication that has gone into Voyager’s debut.

“Marella Voyager is part of our strategic vision to continually modernise and grow our fleet. We pride ourselves on continuing to offer more for our customers, whether that’s new ships, new destinations, our all-inclusive as standard offering and fantastic, friendly service.” 

Marella Voyager’s maiden voyage starts on Saturday 3 June from the ship’s homeport in Palma, Majorca.
