PACIFIC WORLD against its type
Built in 1995, it is 15 years older than the median cruise ship on this register, which was built in 2010 (195 vessels with a known build year). At 77,441 gross tonnage it is larger than 52% of the other 177 cruise ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 15 cruise ships here under the Panama flag, 7.4% of the 202 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 132 other vessels here, 60 of them cruise ships. Its MRV returns name it SUN PRINCESS for 2019 and PACIFIC WORLD for 2023–2025. The reported port of registry changed: Hamilton (2019), then Panama (2023–2025).
Its 16,996 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 46% below the median of 31,269 t among the 200 cruise ships on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 793.8 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 821.3 kg. It logged 1,448 hours at sea against a median of 3,133 hours for its type that year. 4.0% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for cruise ships was 15.1%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2024 (18,160 t) and the lowest 2019 (11,292 t). Of the 4 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 3 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 50.5% higher than in 2019, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2020, 2021, 2022, so the series has gaps.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 6.4% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 8.6%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
