China’s second domestically built large cruise ship set sail on Saturday on a 12-day sea trial, the final major step before the ship’s official delivery as the country expands its push into the cruise tourism market.
The shipbuilder, Shanghai Waigaoqiao Shipbuilding Co Ltd, a subsidiary of China State Shipbuilding Corporation (CSSC), invited a team of 937 professionals from 12 countries aboard for the maiden trial voyage.
During the trip, they will carry out 149 tests and verification tasks to validate key performance indicators of the vessel, named Adora Flora City, which was undocked in Shanghai on March 20.
