American Cruise Lines revealed about the ongoing construction of their new vessels. They are making three new ships to add to their existing cruise lines. The American Cruise Lines is a US based cruise that offers up to 35 river cruises. As seen in their website, they offer cruise to the Mississsippi River, New England, Pacific Northwest & Alaska, the Southeast and other special themed cruises.

According to Breaking Travel News and Cruise Industry News, the American Cruise Lines' new ships will be built by Chesapeake Shipbuilding in Salisbury, MD. The ship set to be delivered first is the American Constellation which could carry up to 170 passengers and will soon be made available this May 2017. The second ship is set to be finished during 2018, which could also carry 170 passengers. However, the third ship is leading a series of new modern riverboats and could carry over 195 passengers. Now, the making of the third ship is starting through the fabrication of steel.

A statement given by the cruise line is "American Cruise Lines has always chosen to build new ships, as it considers refurbished boats unable to meet guest expectations for comfort, spacious stateroom, and modern amenities". With great features such as large private balconies and floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors along with lots of modern amenities, the cruise line hopes to exceed the expectations of European river travelers in the United States.

As the construction of the new vessels is nine weeks early, and the first ship is now being built with large sliding glass doors and bathrooms with marbled tiles. The cruise is said to be delivering more details of the new and much awaited riverboats. As Timothy Beebe, the vice president of American Cruise Lines put it "American Cruise Lines ships are the newest and most environmentally friendly in America".

With all these new features and amazing news about the new cruise ships being constructed by American Cruise Lines, being able to ride on these vessels and cross into different rivers will surely be worthwhile. So are you ready to ride on these new crafts?
