日本首艘迪士尼邮轮已被命名为迪士尼想象号，东方陆地公司周三表示。
Japan’s first Disney cruise ship has been named the Disney Imagination, Oriental Land said Wednesday.
该船计划于2029年春季开始服务，预计将在启航前约六个月接受预订。
The ship is scheduled to begin service in the spring of 2029, and reservations will be accepted about six months before its launch.
东方陆地公司是东京迪士尼度假区的运营方，旨在将其豪华邮轮业务发展为与主题公园并列的重要收入支柱。
Oriental Land, the operator of Tokyo Disney Resort, aims to develop its luxury cruise business into a key revenue pillar alongside its theme parks.
“我们将建立一种家庭娱乐邮轮新文化，让从儿童到老年人的每个人都能成为焦点，”东方陆地公司董事长兼首席执行官高野裕美子在新闻发布会上表示。
“We will establish a new culture of family entertainment cruises where everyone, from children to older people, can take center stage,” Oriental Land Chairperson and CEO Yumiko Takano said at a news conference.
该船长约340米，重约14万公吨。它将拥有1250间客房，可容纳约4000名乘客。建造及相关成本将投入约3300亿日元（21亿美元）。
The ship will be about 340 meters long and weigh some 140,000 metric tons. It will have 1,250 guest rooms and be able to accommodate up to about 4,000 passengers. Some ¥330 billion ($2.1 billion) will be invested in construction and related costs.
目前，公司计划专注于从东京出发并返回东京的两至四夜短期航线，标准客房每人价格将在约10万至40万日元之间。
For the time being, the company plans to focus on short-term itineraries of two to four nights departing from and returning to Tokyo, with prices for standard guest rooms ranging from around ¥100,000 to ¥400,000 per person.
“日本邮轮市场具有充足的潜力，”东方陆地邮轮公司总裁石羽亮太郎表示。“将该船置于日本国旗下投入服务，以促进市场发展，这一点很重要。”他补充道。
“The Japanese cruise market has sufficient potential,” said Ryotaro Shiiba, president of Oriental Land Cruise, the operator of the cruise ship. “It is important to put the ship into service under the Japanese flag to contribute to the market’s development,” he added.
