Wanna go on a cruise? Better bring a lot of moolah for this one...

The world’s biggest superyacht has set sail for the first time, ploughing through the sea and measuring in at 720ft long. The Orient Express Corinthian was christened at the Joubert graving dock in Saint-Nazaire, France, ready to provide a butler for every one of its 54 suites. The ship, constructed by French shipbuilder Chantiers de l’Atlantique, also has a dedicated butler to each cabin. With interiors inspired by the golden age of travel, the Orient Express train and famous ocean liners of the 20th century, every spare inch has been fitted with leathers, precious wood veneers and marble. From May to October, Orient Express Corinthian will float around the Mediterranean and Adriatic, before crossing the Atlantic for Caribbean voyages in the autumn and winter months. Guests who don’t feel like swimming in the ocean but still want to get their toes wet can try out the 54ft lap pool, as well as a wider swimming pool and a marina.
 

In 2027, a new collection of itineraries will see the ship sail to the eastern Mediterranean and Northern Europe. Prices for the inaugural cruise have not yet been set, but 54 suites will eventually have prices generally ranging from approximately $ 22,000 to over $ 120,000 per suite, depending on duration and itinerary. Example 2026 bookings start at roughly $ 23,000 for short 3-night trips up to $ 155,000 for week-long Mediterranean voyages.
