Introducing our Brand-New ship for 2026
SUPER SHIP EMILIE
CELEBRATING THE 50 TH ANNIVERSARY OF UNIWORLD IN 2026
LAUNCHING IN 2026
Welcoming the newest Super Ship to Our Fleet
In 2026, we are proud to introduce the S.S. Emilie, a stunning new super ship set to grace the Danube River with eight exclusive itineraries that traverse the heart of Europe.
This elegant 154-passenger vessel takes inspiration from the renowned Austrian painter Gustav Klimt and named in honour of his life partner and muse, Emilie Flöge. The S.S. Emilie is a true masterpiece, featuring Klimt's iconic artistic style woven seamlessly throughout its design, with captivating hues of green, blue, and yellow, striking gold accents, and enchanting Art Nouveau elements that create an unparalleled atmosphere of luxury.
Aboard the S.S. Emilie, enjoy a variety of exceptional amenities, including a unique onboard restaurant, a stylish lounge, and a chic bar. Additionally, for those seeking the ultimate indulgence, the ship offers the option to reserve a spacious two-bedroom suite by booking a Grand Suite alongside the adjoining Deluxe French Balcony stateroom.
Prepare to embark on a journey of elegance and exploration as you discover the beauty and culture of Europe's most captivating rivers aboard the S.S. Emilie
EXCLUSIVE INAUGURAL SEASON SAVINGS
Enjoy savings on a range of itineraries as S.S. Emilie sails her inaugural season. With this beautiful ship being the first newly-built ship in a number of years, we're expecting her first season to be incredibly popular.
A MASTERPIECE ON THE WATER:
The Design Inspiration of S.S. Emilie
At Uniworld, we’re constantly evolving –reimagining what luxury river cruising can be, and refining every detail to deliver unforgettable experiences. Our newest Super Ship, S.S. Emilie, is the latest expression of that vision.
Inspired by Gustav Klimt's artistry, S.S. Emilie is a tribute to beauty, creativity, and timeless design. Klimt’s iconic use of gold, pattern, and texture shaped the ship’s interiors–from hand-selected artwork and gilded accents to flowing curves and opulent textiles. Named after Emilie Flöge, Klimt’s muse and a pioneering designer in her own right, the ship also honours bold femininity and Viennese elegance.
We believe the magic of travel lies in the details – in how a space makes you feel, and how seamlessly it connects you to the culture and stories of the destination. S.S. Emilie is not simply a vessel to carry you along the Danube; she’s an invitation to experience Central Europe's art, history and romance with all the beauty and grace you’ve come to expect from Uniworld.
With S.S. Emilie, we welcome a new chapter in our story – where timeless elegance meets artistic daring, and every journey feels like a masterpiece.
