Virgin Voyages LinkedIn feed is a great place to stay abreast of construction and see the latest images. Posted this past week.  She's starting to look like a cruise ship.

SO ugly.   Why are cruise ships turning so ugly (externally anyway) nowadays?   The Celebrity Edge is just as bad .. with that ugly new-style bow section .. looks more like an ice breaking ship

 

The stern sections too - - this one is horrible . MSC Seaside is too .. as well as the RC Anthem & Oasis series.  In my opinion, of course.  The last era of cruise ships used to be so pretty.

Zombie thread made me think there were new pictures

Captain Kate on Edge explained the new bow is much more efficient in the water. That's why they're all changing to this bow style. More fuel efficient by cutting through the water better than the previous bow style.

It also doesn't help that they're making them so big, that they're giant apartment buildings. There's no way to make that pretty and still have the same kind of capacity.
