Uniworld announces plans for 2020 expansion

Uniworld Boutique River Cruise Collection has announced that by 2020, more than half of the ships in its fleet will be a Super Ship with the addition of three new vessels in Vietnam, Egypt and Portugal and another Super Ship renovation in Italy.  

The new floating boutique hotels will feature have more suites, dining venues and lavish finishes while maintaining the high crew to guest ratio. 

The plan to completely transform the fleet that began over five years back continues in 2020 with four new Super Ships planned for the Mekong, Nile and Douro rivers, and the Venetian Lagoon. 

Ellen Bettridge, CEO of the cruise line, said: ?We are consistently and relentlessly pursuing excellence. But expansion for expansion?s sake has never been our business model. We are fortunate to operate under the guidance and vision of the Tollmans ? a family synonymous with hospitality and innovation. We do not answer to a board of directors or investors, but instead boldly commit to the projects that will continuously elevate Uniworld to the leading position within the river cruise industry. Our ships are absolutely unique and, like a boutique hotel, reflect the destinations they serve from d?cor and artwork to food, beverage and programming. We look forward to making our high calibre of service and personalisation in these remarkable destinations even better.? 

Uniworld?s new ships launching in 2020 include: S.S. Satet, Egypt; S.S. S?o Gabriel, Portugal; S.S. La Venezia, Venice; and Mekong Jewel, Vietnam & Cambodia
