Hi shipgeeks, World Campus Afloat – later Semester at Sea, was initially supported by Holland America Line and from 1971 by C.Y. Tung's Seawise Organisation. Beside the educational cruise organisation,World Explorer Cruises was founded, to employ the ship UNIVERSE CAMPUS / UNIVERSE as a normal cruise ship in the off-school-season. Picture © http://ssmaritime.com/ Cruises in the Caribbean, Panama Canal cruises and many trips to Alaska made World Explorer Cruises a renowned recommended cruise operator.

Sold together with MAJESTY OF THE SEAS to unknown Chinese shipping company. Here is the deck plan from 2016, as EMPRESS OF THE SEAS: Empress Of The Seas DP.pdf She was used again on short cruises for Royal Caribbean and also for the new Cuba business.

After FTI Kreuzfahrten has sold its ship BERLIN, another operator comes to the horizon that offers cruises where Cuban ports are called. Nicko Cruises, a Portuguese / German joint venture, is offering two 15-day voyages with 5 Cuban ports each (Santiago de Cuba, Cienfuegos, Maria La Gorda, Siguanea, and Havana) on board the WORLD VOYAGER for December - January - February 2021/22 at. Unfortunately the website and brochure is only in German as the ship is marketed in Germany, Belgium and France. 21.12.-04.01.2022 + 01.02.-15.02.2022
