Viking Holdings announced it has taken delivery of the Viking Rota, the cruise line company's newest European river ship. The 190-guest vessel joins the Viking Longship fleet and will sail on the Rhine, Main, and Danube rivers. The ship has 95 staterooms and features Scandinavian design, a patented square bow that accommodates three full decks, an indoor/outdoor Aquavit Terrace, and an asymmetric corridor layout that allows for true two-room suites. Planned itineraries include Rhine Getaway, Grand European Tour, Danube Waltz, Tulips & Windmills, Christmas on the Rhine, and Danube Christmas Delights. The delivery supports Viking's broader fleet-growth strategy; based on its committed order book, the company expects to receive 18 additional river ships by 2028, 11 additional ocean ships by 2032, and two additional expedition ships by 2031, bringing the total fleet size to 114 river ships in 2028 and a combined 28 ocean and expedition ships in 2032.
