First ship in a series of ten - Viking Prestige - christened in Amsterdam
In a moving ceremony in Amsterdam this week, the 188 passenger Viking Prestige was officially named by godmother Janice Farrar-Titus. Ms Farrar-Titus, wife of the late renowned cruise industry innovator, Warren Titus, bestowed a blessing on Prestige before breaking a bottle of champagne on her bow. “May you begin your cruising days under a rainbow and sunny skies, and may you follow that rainbow around the bends in the river to the pot of gold,” Ms Farrar-Titus proclaimed. On what would have been his 96th birthday, Torstein Hagen, Viking River Cruises chairman and CEO commended the late Mr Titus. “Warren influenced three cruise lines during his lifetime – Royal Viking Line, Seabourn and, indirectly, Viking River Cruises.” Designed by Norwegian maritime architects Yran & Storbraaten, famed for their work with Seabourn, Oceania and Disney, Viking Prestige is the first ship in a series of ten set to be rolled out over the next 3 years costing the line $250 million.
