MS Antonia Review

Review of MS Antonia

The 2021-built MS Antonia cruise ship operates itineraries along inland waterways in Holland and Belgium, as well as on the rivers Rhine, Main, and Moselle. Departures are offered from Germany, with homeports in Cologne and Dusseldorf. The vessel is owned by Rijfers Nautical Management BV (Holland) and currently chartered by the German tour travel company Phoenix Reisen.

Phoenix Reisen was founded in 1973 and began passenger shipping operations in 1988 with the charter of MV Maxim Gorky (a 1969-built Russian ocean liner, scrapped in 2009). In 1993, Phoenix Travel introduced European river cruises under the brand "Phoenix Reisen Flusskreuzfahrten."

MS Antonia Wiki

The vessel’s construction (hull and superstructure, ENI number tba) was carried out at Vahali Shipyard in Zasavica (Sremska Mitrovica, Serbia). The Dutch shipbuilding company Scheepswerf en Machinefabriek Vahali BV, founded in 1923, owns and operates shipyards in Serbia (Belgrade and Zasavica) and in the Netherlands (Gendt). Vahali Shipyard Zasavica officially opened in 2013.

After construction in Serbia, the cruise ship was towed to the Netherlands for final outfitting at Scheepswerf Vahali in Gendt.

 

The riverboat was christened in Bonn, Germany on June 17, 2021. The ship’s godmother was Petra Fendel-Sridharan, wife of Ashok-Alexander Sridharan (former Mayor of Bonn). The special event, held during the Maiden Voyage departing on June 16 from Cologne/Köln, was attended by Benjamin Krumpen, Managing Director of Phoenix Reisen GmbH. The vessel was blessed by Pastor Raimund Blanke.

Antonia’s Inaugural Cruise marked Phoenix Reisen’s first voyage with passengers following the Coronavirus crisis of 2020–2021.
