June 27 will be a historic day for Fincantieri when two Costa ships are floated out simultaneously: Costa Luminosa at the Marghera yard and Costa Pacifica at Sestri Ponente.
Costa Luminosa is due for delivery at the end of April 2009, with Costa Pacifica following a month later. The arrival of the two ships will boost the Costa fleet to 14 with total passenger capacity of approximately 36,000.
The 92,700gt Costa Luminosa, a new design for the brand, will carry up to 2,828 passengers. A sister to Costa Concordia and Costa Serena, the 114,500gt Costa Pacifica will accommodate up to 3,780 passengers. Image: the COSTA EUROPA cruising off Lisbon
