The Ship
he Mein Schiff Relax measures 333 meters in length and accommodates approximately 4,100 passengers. It is the first ship of the new “InTUItion” class, characterized by numerous innovations and increased open space. Additionally, it features environmentally friendly LNG propulsion and a shore power connection to underscore its sustainability efforts.
On board, passengers can indulge themselves to their heart’s content, for example, in the wellness world with a magnificent sea view. Additionally, a 25-meter-long outdoor pool is available, and the whirlpools offer retreats for relaxation. The ship’s outdoor area features numerous sun loungers and seating options.
The Mein Schiff Relax offers special cabins for solo travelers in the Inside, Outside, and Balcony categories.

Five-course menus are offered for lunch and dinner in the ship’s main restaurant. In the morning, passengers can either serve themselves at the buffet or order dishes of their choice to be served at the table. The evening can be rounded off in one of the numerous bars with one of over 100 included brand-name drinks or a favorite cocktail. In general, the Premium All-Inclusive concept applies, and dining is available 24 hours a day. However, specialty restaurants in the Große Freiheit (e.g., the steakhouse) are excluded and cost an extra charge.

Getting There & Back
The cruise starts and ends in Gran Canaria. Currently, flights for the winter of 2026/2027 are not yet bookable. Fortunately, the island boasts outstanding connectivity ranging from budget-friendly options to business class seats on wide-body jets like the Airbus A350 with some airlines. While most visitors utilize low-cost carriers, which connect Gran Canaria to regional airports across Europe, you should always compare the final price with seat and baggage fees included before booking.
For those preferring flag carriers, options are plentiful with the Lufthansa Group, SAS, and Finnair all servicing the island; alternatively, if connecting via mainland Spain, Iberia is typically the top choice due to superior frequency and baggage policies, while Air Europa is ideal for SkyTeam members, leaving Vueling as an option best reserved for when the specific savings are substantial. You should budget at least €200 for return tickets from Europe with checked luggage.
