About Viking Astrea
Viking Astrea is an upcoming Viking ocean ship and the line's second hydrogen-powered vessel, under construction at Fincantieri in Ancona. She was floated out in September 2026 and is scheduled for delivery in May 2027, with a debut announced for spring 2027. Like Viking Libra she belongs to the 998-guest Vela design, at about 54,300 gross tons with 499 staterooms, and a propulsion system based partly on liquefied hydrogen and fuel cells is to let her sail with zero emissions. Her inaugural season is planned for the Mediterranean and Northern Europe.
