ORIENT Express will set sail with its much-anticipated luxury superyacht in Jun 2026, with bookings opening for the first time later this month.
The debut of Accor’s luxury ship, titled OE Corinthian (CW 21 Nov 2024), will be the world’s largest sailing yacht and is in the final construction stages at the Chantiers de l’Atlantique shipyard in France.
Measuring 220 metres in length, the ship features three masts each with tilting rigid sails to optimise performance under wind propulsion.
Corinthian will also operate under a hybrid LNG propulsion system to minimise emissions.
The ship’s first itineraries will run from between two and eight days, and take travellers into smaller ports in the French and Italian rivieras, among other departures.
