Villa Vie Residences start up three-and-a-half year world cruise on a former Fred. Olsen Braemar, will now begin in Belfast on May 30 instead of May 15 from Southampton after being delayed by two weeks.
The company announced the delay at the same time it secured a Term Loan Facility from funds advised by NRP Maritime Asset Management AS, a Norwegian maritime fund manager, on April 26, 2024.
The delay is due to operational enhancements aimed at elevating the overall experience and safety of its residents, with a dedicated hotline set up for residents to address any concerns or inquiries related to the rescheduled departure.
Villa Vie Residences will cover all change fees incurred by residents due to the new departure date and invites residents to participate in ship tours at the Belfast port to experience the enhancements being made to the ship before departure.
