Per nautical mile it emitted 1,064.4 kg CO₂, 30% above the type median of 821.3 kg. It logged 4,676 hours at sea against a median of 3,133 hours for its type that year. 13.6% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for cruise ships was 15.1%. Across 8 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2018 (79,838 t) and the lowest 2020 (866 t). Of the 4 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 1 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 3.4% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 44.2% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 6.6%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
