Silver Nova to sail first season in Asia-Pacific

Silversea’s newest ship will sail its first voyages in Asia-Pacific between September 2024 and April 2025.

Silver Nova, the first of the luxury line’s Nova-class ships, will start its first season sailing when it arrives in Kushiro, Japan on September 27.

It will sail two voyages in the region before operating 16 to 18-day voyages in Australia and New Zealand between November 18, 2024, and February 24, 2025.

Silver Nova is then slated to return to Asia until April 2025 with passengers able to visit Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam and other countries in the region.

The ship will return to Asia-Pacific in September 2025 before going on a 47-day circumnavigation of Australia from Melbourne.

Silver Nova will then operate 12 to 15-day Sydney-to-Auckland sailings.

Silversea president, Bert Hernandez, said: “We are thrilled to finally be celebrating the arrival of the beautiful Silver Nova in Asia-Pacific.

“Anticipation has been building among our valued guests and travel advisors in the region, and we’re delighted to be able to introduce them to one of the most pioneering ships in experiential luxury cruise travel at long last.

“Silver Nova will be the most luxurious ship sailing in Asia-Pacific until she leaves the region in April 2025, with her striking architectural innovations, advanced energy efficiency standards, and unprecedented range of suites and public venues.”
