AIDABELLA against its type

Built in 2008, it is 2 years older than the median cruise ship on this register, which was built in 2010 (195 vessels with a known build year). At 69,203 gross tonnage it is smaller than 55% of the other 177 cruise ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 19 cruise ships here under the Italy flag, 9.4% of the 202 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 65 other vessels here, 29 of them cruise ships. AIDA Cruises is linked to 13 vessels on this register. The reported port of registry changed: Genova (2018–2022), then Genoa (2023–2025).

Its 39,995 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 28% above the median of 31,269 t among the 200 cruise ships on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 718.3 kg CO₂, 13% below the type median of 821.3 kg. It logged 4,355 hours at sea against a median of 3,133 hours for its type that year. 15.1% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for cruise ships was 15.1%. Across 8 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2022 (49,828 t) and the lowest 2020 (15,475 t). Of the 6 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 2 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 0.2% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 6.1% and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 1.5%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.

Sources and how to read this

This page draws on 8 MRV reporting years, 5 of 5 vessel particulars, AIS movements in Norwegian waters and a licensed photograph. Not found in the sources for this vessel: an efficiency ranking, a name history, a sanctions listing and US port state inspections.

Empty means unreported, never zero. How EEOI, distance, percentiles and sister ships are handled is explained under reading a vessel page. Something wrong? See corrections.
