MARCO POLO still in Lisbon




The cruise ship MARCO POLO ex-ALEKSANDR PUSHKIN is still in Lisbon where she arrived on 22 March at 08.45 AM at the end of her final cruise for the NCL group. She was delivered to new Greek-based owners and is going to be operated on charter by Transocean of Bremen, replacing the ASTORIA.
Her departure is now scheduled for 13 April.
Those new photographs were taken on 9th April 2008. The MARCO POLO looks now part of the Lisbon waterfront scene and will be missed...

  2. Thanks for the update on one of my favorite ships.

    However, a small correction: she is replacing ARIELLE, not ASTORIA. Transocean has not yet found a replacement for ASTORIA.

    Best,
