What will Saga’s new ship look like?

The new ship will continue to focus on the brand ethos which is “one ship for everybody” and the decision to have balconies only certainly reflects this. The less than 1,000 passenger ship is being built in Hamburg, at the Meyer Werft shipyard, the ships is told to have the highest technological specifications.

Fact sheet on the new Saga ship

  • Intimate atmosphere & friendly service: cruising on board a small ship is like travelling with acquaintances and friends. Plus the excellent customer service is a bonus, you feel welcome.
  • Sleek and elegant design: the interiors will be modern and contemporary
  • 540 balcony cabins: cabins will be spacious
  • 20% of accommodation for singles: singles will definitely love Saga even more!
  • Single sitting dining: finally singles will have the option to dine on their own
  • Signature lounge: one of the features that all of us are waiting to see is the Britannia lounge which”is going to be a magnificent signature space set across two decks” as David Pickett, new build director said.
  • All restaurants for free: as a continuation of the Saga brand belief, the restaurants on board will be free of charge.

Saga’s small ships are very successful, they sell out very quickly and also, for this reason, an additional small ship was launched. The ship was created out of the necessity, but also to impress existing guests, its design was crafted by taking passengers’ ideas and feedback in mind.
