In Bed with Luxury

By charles paddington, mein schiff 5 (english), tui cruises, adriatic sea (in summer), hongkong, singapore,... (in winter).

My Ship 5 (Mein Schiff 5) is probably the best of the popular German tui cruises fleet consisting of six vessels (a 7th is under construction). Launched in 2016 the cruise liner boasts an excellent design, the longest pool of all cruise ships (25 meters), extraordinary suites (sky & sea on two levels with a private sundeck) and a premium all inclusive concept which provides e.g. around 100 well known brands of liquor and drinks (unlike cheap substitutes on some other cruise-ships). The first two ships of the fleet were used ones bought from Celebrity Cruises. Beginning with 2014 new ships were launched, the last ones Mein Schiff 1 in 2018 and Mein Schiff 2 in 2019. Unlike these two Mein Schiff 5 is a bit smaller (360 passengers less) which we appreciate. But see yourself!

All the new TUI vessels were built with energy efficient solutions and environmentally friendly power plants that reduce emissions by 30% and consume 30% less energy in comparison to similar-size cruise liners. The advanced scrubber (exhaust cleaning system) uses a catalytic and scrubber converter, which reduces sulphur emissions by 99% and nitrogen oxide emissions by 75%.

Designers of the new TUI liners are Wilson Butler Architects, together with CM Design and Tillberg Design. Fun fact is, that each ship in this new series brings nearly 5000 person-years labour to the Turku shipyard. Each ship's construction engages 800 out of all 1400 workers at the shipbuilding yard. The percentage of German travellers on board TUI ships is around 80%.

According to Meyer Turku, it takes only 7 months for each new Schiff to be fully assembled from the grand blocks. Then follow outfitting, commissioning and testing. TUI Schiff 6 was delivered on May 9, 2017. Following the delivery ceremony at Turku yard, the ship departed for Kiel Germany .

On June 1, 2017, in Port Hamburg was held vessel's christening ceremony. The location was close to the waterfront Elbphilharmonie (concert house). The ship's godmother is Iveta Apkalna (acclaimed pianist and organist from Latvia). The naming ceremony was also attended by over 1950 cruise passengers booked on the inaugural cruise from Hamburg to Kiel. Thousands of spectators watched the show from ashore. Following the ceremony, the ship left Cruise Center Altona at ~9 PM, sailing upstream to HafenCity where two choirs performed live at Elbphilharmonie (concert hall). Followed the premiere of a specially composed for the event musical piece, inspired by Brahms Symphony No.1's 4th movement. The performance was accompanied by a light show.

TUI Schiff 6 started its Caribbean cruise program in September 2017 with an inaugural Transatlantic crossing from Hamburg to New York (Port Cape Liberty Bayonne NJ). The NYC-based itinerary program included Canada, Caribbean and Bahamas cruises leaving roundtrip from Bayonne.
