German cruise line AIDA Cruises is a subsidiary of British-American cruise operator Carnival Corporation.

The bunkering operation was carried out by Titan’s LNG bunker tanker Green Zeebrugge at the Steinwerder Cruise terminal in Hamburg.

LNG can curb carbon dioxide emissions by about a quarter compared to conventional bunker fuels. However, its methane emissions can be 36 times more potent as a greenhouse gas (GHG) compared to carbon dioxide over a century, according to a World Bank study.
