Viking’s latest ocean cruise vessel touched water for the first time last week during a float-out ceremony ahead of its launch next year. The ceremony marked the latest stage in the development of Viking Mira at the Fincantieri shipyard in Ancona.
Similar to the rest of the ocean fleet, Viking Mira is classed as a small ship, with a gross tonnage of 54,300. It has 499 staterooms that can host 998 guests and has now moved to the next stage, where it will be completed with the cruise line’s trademark Scandinavian designs.
