BIG LOVE
The cruise industry is continuing its love affair with big ships. Carnival Cruise Lines, the world’s largest cruise operator, launched Carnival Splendor in July − making it the biggest passenger ship in the
history of the company. In the spring, Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd.

As one seeks to satisfy the demands of all the cruise-goers, the
ship needs to be very large indeed. Kai Levander, Aker Yards’ naval
architecture guru, has likened a cruise ship to a vessel that carries a
hotel on top. In this scenario, the main limitation from the design
perspective is maintaining stability − as more decks with balconies,

While the size of these magnificent beasts has increased to near
legendary proportions, the cruise experience itself is not reserved
for those with the megabucks anymore. The people in the industry
are fond of saying that cruising is no longer a luxury: it is a necessity. This means that people from all walks of life flock to the ships −
so if it’s peace and quiet you are looking for, you probably need to
buy your own boat.
One cruise reporter even commented about the maiden voyage
of the Independence that undoubtedly those booked on the cruise
ship will enjoy it, but it’s worth bearing in mind that they’ll be sharing space with several thousand other people.

WHILE THE ECONOMY CONTINUES TO STRUGGLE,
ROYAL CARIBBEAN RESPONDS
BY BRINGING IN THE BIG GUNS
The cruise business is the fastest growing travel
industry in the world, and Europe has a hunger for
the big boats. According to European Cruise Council (ECC), the buoyant cruise industry now accounts
for more than a quarter of a million jobs in Europe,
over € 10 billion direct expenditure and 15 million
visits to European ports.

performance of the RCCL’s newest powerhouse so far.
“As our newest ship, there is no
doubt that there has been great interest for cruising with Independence of the
Seas. Technically, she runs like a clock, and
operational-wise she has been a success
so far,” Stebekk comments, arguing that
the ship offers also extremely good value
for money. Attractive ‘All-Included’ packages have led to very good bookings, she
adds.
“We are happy to say that Independence of the Seas has performed according to our very high standards and objectives.”
TOTAL FREEDOM
With the May launch of the Independence, RCCL concluded the Freedom class
trilogy. While the ships are getting bigger, Royal Caribbean is also getting better at understanding the nature of these

ROYAL TREATMENT
According to the Marketing Manager, the
introduction of 28 contemporary two-level
loft suites will redefine cruise ship accommodations with vibrant, ocean-inspired
colours in a sophisticated and spacious setting. Never before seen at sea, the lofts
will feature spectacular views of the ocean
with floor-to-ceiling, double-height windows to ensure the view will be enjoyed
from each and every vantage point.
The signature lofts will round up
a new portfolio of 37 categories of accommodation options, many with views
unique to the ship.
“We are experiencing an underlying
and solid net growth, and opening sales
for Oasis in September, I believe, will be a
milestone in our history in many aspects,”
Stebekk declares confidently.
The patrons of the Independence of the Seas are in for some royal treatment.

MAKE THE MOST OF FAIRS
Messua Ltd provides reliable service for
the customers taking part in the fairs
M
essua Ltd provides all the services needed for taking part
in the exhibitions. All this is done with professional pre-
cision. Messua has executed thousands of fairs and exhibitions
both in Finland and abroad since 1987. The strong know-how
and extensive list of contacts enables Messua to carry out projects
abroad as well.
The fairs have become increasingly more important for companies, especially as meeting places. “We have discovered that
the people come to trade and negotiate at the exhibitions. The
expectations of taking part are set on a high level,” says Paloneva. Nowadays it is widely understood that participation in fairs is
part of the whole marketing strategy and -budget for companies.
The firm’s own stand operates as a business card in the world
and it is very often the first visible unit for the new customers. It
is also a very good way to distinguish one’s company from the
competitors. The design team of Messua aims to provide creative
solutions according to the image and profile of the firms.
The service offered by Messua includes design and highquality implementation as well as project services. “Our project
services in Finland include all necessary parts for the fair, both
before and after the event. For example we can design the invitations, the event-specific web pages and a schedule for the
stand. For several companies the common section can be a good
and easy option to participate at the fairs in Finland,” Paloneva comments.
In the autumn and winter Messua is visible at least in the
following fairs: Finnbuild, Euroblech Hannover, Nordic Welding
Expo, Husum WindEnergy, Monaco Yacht Show, SMM Hamburg,
SMM Instanbul, Seatrade Cruise Shipping 2009 Miami and NorShipping Oslo.
EXPORT SUBSIDY FOR FIRMS AIMING ABROAD
Messua’s know-how is especially highlighted abroad. The long
experience and the capacity needed for working abroad ensures
that the units and stands are effectively implemented. Messua
also takes care of all necessary organising at the fair itself. We
also provide special project services for export events, similar to
the fairs in Finland. Also the firms planning exports can participate in joint units, and apply for the export subsidy of the Ministry of Employment and Economy. Messua organises an export
team for many international events, books the site and coordinates all the necessary actions needed for participation and subsidy application process. ■

to corrosion
C
orrosion caused by seawater is a troublesome problem in
marine industry. Several attempts have been made to solve
the problem including metal alloys, electronic protection, polymeric materials and corrosion proof coatings. Most of the options
have introduced new problems, such as electro chemical corrosion typical to metals. Polymeric materials increase the amount
of flammable materials in ships and the life cycles of most coatings are not sufficient.
The Finnish companies, Teknikum and YIT Teollisuus ja verkkopalvelut, have been delivering rubber coated steel pipes in cooperation. The pipes are designed to fit the purpose of use. The
deliveries have been supplied around the world for over 20 years.
The most typical destinations are the seawater pipes of ships
and oil rigs. Coal and nuclear power stations located by the sea
have also become important users of the pipes. The same production technology has been applied successfully in mining industry as well. ■

Messina believes that the small customers – and their parents – are becoming
more and more important for the cruise
business.
“Families continue to be a growing
part of the cruise scene, and this is particularly true with a contemporary cruise
line like Carnival, which specialises in Caribbean cruises of different lengths, and has
a relatively young guest demographic.”
As a result, new features are constantly studied and developed to ensure
that the cruise will be a great experience
for the young public as well.
Obviously, the cooperation between
the cruise line and the shipyard is crucial
in any ship-building project. But in ventures of this magnitude, one would think
that the partners have to be joined at the
hip for everything to work out. Luckily,
Messina reports that the collaboration
with Carnival Cruise Lines was “just outstanding”.
