TUI Cruises has canceled a second voyage of the cruise ship Mein Schiff 3 due to extended repair work following a collision incident on October 25, 2026. The vessel collided with two container ships while departing Bremerhaven, Germany, causing damage to lifeboats, launching equipment, and sections of the hull. At the time of the collision, 2,428 passengers and 922 crew members were aboard, with no reported injuries. The initial cancellation covered a 20-day Canary Islands cruise announced on October 26.
Repair Work Continues at Lloyd Werft, Second Voyage Canceled
Mein Schiff 3 has been undergoing repairs at the Lloyd Werft shipyard in Bremerhaven since November 1. The damage assessment
and repair process has taken longer than expected, leading TUI Cruises to cancel a 14-night Norway cruise scheduled from November 14 to November 28, 2026. The company currently plans for Mein Schiff 3 to resume its regular schedule on November 28, contingent on repair completion.
Passenger Notifications and Safety Priorities
Passengers booked on the November 14 to 28 Norway voyage face cancellation due to the vessel’s ongoing repairs. TUI Cruises has stated that it prioritizes completing all necessary repairs carefully to ensure passenger and crew safety before returning the ship to service. The cruise operator will notify affected travelers and travel partners about any further
schedule changes or cancellations as repair progress continues.
TUI Stock Performance Amid Operational Disruptions
Despite the operational impacts from the Mein Schiff 3 collision and cancellations, TUI stock traded at 7.65 euros on the Lang & Schwarz exchange at 11:30 Central European Time on November 9, 2026, marking a 1.06 percent increase over the previous Xetra session close of 7.57 euros on November 6. The cancellations currently affect only Mein Schiff 3 and its two scheduled voyages, with the cruise line and investors monitoring developments closely as repair work proceeds.
