Tianjin Orient International Cruise Line, a newcomer to the cruise sector, is planning to put a former Carnival Corp ship into service now that China has lifted its pandemic travel bans.
The Tianjin-based cruise newcomer has acquired the 77,500-gt Charming (built 1998) from Sanya International Cruise Development Co, a joint venture between Cosco Shipping, China National Travel Service (HK) Group and China Communications Construction Co.
