UNIWORLD’S new S.S. Bon Voyage has upped the ante in the river cruise market, with CEO Ellen Bettridge this week very enthusiastic about the ship’s new features.
The new infinity pool on the top deck (below) – introduced in place of a hot tub that “no-one ever used because it’s so warm in the south of France” has a system that allows users to listen to music underwater, along with a resistance jet to enable swimmers to effectively do laps.
Bettridge also highlighted the sustainability focus of the Uniworld offering, with no straws, no plastic water bottles and potato-based plastic bags used in the kitchens so they are actually bio-degradable.
She also warned travellers that the heavy emphasis on locally sourced food and beverage meant that Aussies will have to “settle” for French wine and beer, adding “you’re not going to get a VB on board”.
