Its 34,848 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 3.8 times the median of 9,183 t among the 48 passenger ships on this register that reported for 2024. Per nautical mile it emitted 892.4 kg CO₂, 1.9 times the type median of 473.8 kg. It logged 2,592 hours at sea against a median of 1,874 hours for its type that year. 13.9% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for passenger ships was 12.2%. The one sister ship listed below with a 2024 return reported a higher or equal CO₂ per nautical mile.
