Damien O’Connor, Trafalgar vice-president, river cruise, joined the brand’s new river arm last April before Trafalgar Verity and Trafalgar Reverie, previously sister brand Uniworld’s River Queen and River Princess respectively, underwent refurbishment in October.
Speaking on Verity in Amsterdam on Friday (10 April), O’Connor told TTG more than $1 million was spent on refurbishing Verity and Reverie as he revealed Trafalgar’s focus is now on designing its new ships.
“We called it a light refurbishment [on Verity and Reverie],” said O’Connor. “We didn’t want to go all out because we want the design intent on the new ships to come back.
