Less than a month before the delivery of the new flagship Costa Favolosa, work is continuing on its sister ship, Costa Fascinosa

Work is continuing on the construction of the Costa Fascinosa (114,500 gross tonnage and 3,800 total guests), the 16th member of the Costa fleet, scheduled for delivery in spring 2012.

Her funnel was recently installed in Fincantieri’s Marghera yard - the same distinctive yellow funnel with the blue “C” that has graced 36 vessels in the fleet of Costa Cruises since the establishment of the brand in the 1940s.

Costa Fascinosa is the sister ship of the Costa Favolosa, the new flagship of Costa’s fleet, which will be delivered from Marghera yards on 30 June 2011. The Costa Favolosa will be named in Trieste on 2 July 2011.
