Silversea’s Silver Spirit

Tuesday, June 23rd, 2009

The Silver Spirit, scheduled to launch this December, will be the largest ship in the luxury fleet of Silversea Cruises. At 36,000 tons, the 540-passenger Silver Spirit will have space for some features that are new to the cruise line.

This well-designed, all-suite vessel will offer the most spacious accommodations among Silversea’s ships.

Guests will also enjoy expansive ocean views, and 95 percent of the suites will have private teak verandas.
