The company had initially entered the cruise market in 1973, but due to rising fuel costs the venture was terminated in 1976.

Interesting fact
‘Marella’ actually means ‘shining sea’ in Celtic. It’s a nod to Marella’s spirit of exploration and discovery, and is particularly apt for a fleet of ships spending the majority of their time out at sea.
