China’s Largest Domestically Built Cruise Ship Completes Trial Voyage From Shanghai To Guangzhou
The largest China-built cruise ship, Adora Flora City, completed its first trial voyage on November 12, 2026, arriving at the port of Guangzhou.
On November 9, the cruise ship left Shanghai Wusongkou International Cruise Terminal and arrived at the Nansha port on Thursday. According to China Daily, about 1,000 teachers and students from 16 universities were invited to be part of the trial voyage. They sailed with the ship to Guangzhou, the capital of Guangdong province.
Adora Cruises said that during the trial run, the crew members tested the vessel’s navigation safety, ship-to-shore coordination, onboard information systems, and guest services.
The cruise ship’s second trial voyage is set to be conducted from 14th to 16th November. On November 22, Sunday, the ship will launch its inaugural session from Guangzhou, the ship’s operator said.
Adora Cruises talked about designing a portfolio of cruise itineraries after checking their customers’ travel patterns, China Daily said. The itinerary will implement a blend of different route lengths in its design. The company will operate both short and long voyages and will offer tourists more choices for maritime vacations in Southeast Asia.
According to China Daily, the cruise ship is set to provide six international voyages from the Nansha International Cruise Home Port, Guangzhou.
Adora Flora City was built by Shanghai Waigaoqiao Shipbuilding, with its construction starting in August 2022. It is the second large cruise ship domestically built in China. The vessel was delivered to Adora Cruises earlier this month.
The latest ship offers a larger size and optimized design when compared to China’s first domestically built cruise ship, Adora Magic City. According to China.org.cn, the shipyard used a 3D digital design platform and a digital twin of the vessel to speed up the work.
