MS Cruise Olympia is a cruiseferry owned by Grimaldi Group and operated by Minoan Lines. It was built at Fincantieri in Castellammare di Stabia, Italy.[1]
She was the fourth and last of a series of four sister ships, the others being Cruise Roma, Cruise Barcelona (both operated by Grimaldi Lines) and Cruise Europa (operated by Minoan Lines). They are the largest ferries under Italian flag. Cruise Olympia and Cruise Europa are distinguished from Cruise Roma and Cruise Barcelona by a slightly different arrangement of the accommodation and interiors, enabling them to carry a larger number of passengers.[2]
The ship has 413 cabins, including 68 suites, one à la carte restaurant, one self-service restaurant, a conference room, a fast food, a dog kennel, a boutique, a swimming pool, a disco, a casino, a shopping center and an internet café.[3]
Cruise Olympia is operated by Minoan Lines on the route linking Ancona, Italy to Patras, Greece via Igoumenitsa; she makes the passage in 22 hours.
