Regent Seven Seas Cruises hosted a christening gala in Miami to welcome its newest ship, the Seven Seas Splendor. Exclusive guests, including travel partners, local community leaders, media and luxury travellers were invited to the evening ceremony on board the ship to celebrate the all-suite, all-balcony luxury cruise ship.

Frank Del Rio, president and CEO of Norwegian Cruise Line said: “Seven Seas Splendor is the epitome of luxury perfected. The collaboration between the designers, engineers, craftsmen, hotel and restaurant teams, and the crew onboard, all brings the renowned Regent experience to life on this beautiful ship.”

Actress and supermodel Christie Brinkley, the ship’s honorary godmother, delivered the traditional maritime blessing: “I hereby name this ship Seven Seas Splendor. May God bless her and all who sail on her.”
