China's second domestically built large cruise ship, the Adora Flora City, will carry out the lifeboat release test on Tuesday, according to the shipbuilder, China State Shipbuilding Corporation (CSSC).
The large cruise ship is scheduled to undock on March 20 for the next test phase of dockside mooring, and sea trials are planned in late May, said the shipbuilder.
The primary objective of a lifeboat release test aims to verify the seamless release of the lifeboats from the vessel.
Following the release, a maneuvering trial will also be carried out to assess the lifeboats' operational performance and confirm it meets all required safety standards.
With a gross tonnage of 141,900 tonnes, the cruise ship represents a further step forward in China's large cruise ship construction capability.
Compared with the country's first domestically built large cruise ship, the Adora Magic City, the new vessel features a series of design and construction upgrades.
According to the shipbuilder, the ship is 17.4 meters longer, offers expanded public areas and enhanced onboard comfort.
The Adora Flora City is expected to be delivered by the end of 2026.
