An astonishing innovation: the Magic Carpet!

Put forward by STX France, it is an external terrace the size of a tennis court ‘hovering’ on the ship’s side that can move up and down.

It can become “an extension to the swimming pool on deck 14, or a restaurant on deck 16 serving “Dinner on the Edge” for 90 passengers, or a bar with a stunning wraparound view on deck 5. It can also transform into the Destination Gateway, an embarkation platform for shore-bound launches….,” explains the press release.
