Fincantieri Wins Viking Ocean Cruises Order

Italy's Fincantieri announced that it has signed a Memorandum of Agreement with Viking Ocean Cruises for the construction of two new luxury ocean cruise ships

The new ships will be in the modest 45,000 ton range. Passenger capacity will be just under 1,000 people in 499 cabins.

Current plans call for the first ship to be delivered in late 2014 and the second a year later.

Viking Ocean Cruises and Fincantieri have an option for a third vessel.
