The Marella Voyager is now in service as a firm favourite of the Marella fleet. The Century Class ship first launched in 1997. See her position, which is plotted and seen on the main Doris Visits page as we plot every cruise ship at sea. See our main ships and fleet menu above. She joins Marella in June 2023 and sailings are now on sale on the main TUI website.
The routes planned have some interesting ports. Saint Raphael, France and Propriano, Corsica are on the list.

The Voyager
Built for Celebrity Cruises at the Meyer Werft shipyard in Papenburg, Germany, she was launched as the MV Mercury in 1997. Initially, she was the Mein Schiff 2 and it is not the first time she has been considered for Marella. At 263.8 metres in length, she carries 1912 passengers at double occupancy. Her current home port is in Malta.
Length: 264 m | Tonnage: 77,302 GRT | Speed: 21.5 knots | Guests: 1,912 | Crew: 780
There’ll be plenty of places where you can take in the sea views, too, from the crazy golf course at the top of the ship to The Veranda, where cosy Balinese beds point towards the big blue.
As cruisers, we might all agree that it’s safer to go on a cruise ship at the moment than on any form of public transport or to a crowded pub or dance hall.

I intend not to get into an argument with anyone as to the validity of any card, arguments are for barristers to do and judges to rule on. But if you are lifted off a ship, and your partner follows and stays in a foreign hotel while you are in hospital, they may need the EU or equivalent card as they are now in a foreign place. It can get complex. As you leave the hospital and travel home, you may need an EU or similar card. (Similarly, if you are put off a ship after being arrested. Fighting or shoplifting or any crime on a zero-tolerance ship).
There are some modern complications with the card now we are not in the EU. However, we are still in Europe. There is the EHICard. The new UK EHICard and a UK Global Health Insurance Card (UK GHIC).
