HONG KONG, 23 September 2024: Silver Nova, the first of two Silversea Nova-class ships, will debut in Asia-Pacific from the end of September until April 2025 for culinary-themed cruises.
Marking the start of the ship’s inaugural season in Asia, Silver Nova will arrive in Kushiro (Hokkaido), Japan, on 27 September to undertake two voyages before crossing over to Australia and New Zealand in November for seven sailings — ranging from 16 to 18 days — between 18 November 2024, and 24 February 2025. Silver Nova will then return to Asia until April 2025.
“We are thrilled to finally be celebrating the arrival of the beautiful Silver Nova in Asia-Pacific,” said Silversea president Bert Hernandez.
“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.”
Silver Nova will return to Asia-Pacific in September 2025, completing voyages in Asia before departing from Melbourne for a 47-day circumnavigation of Australia. Subsequently, Silversea’s first Nova-class ship will operate Sydney-to-Auckland sailings, ranging from 12 to 15 days.
