SS Orcades

SS Orcades is a passenger cruise vessel operated by Orient Steam Navigation Company.

SS Orcades was built in 1948. Vessels of this generation reflect the design conventions of their construction era: atrium layouts, public-room programming, balcony cabin ratios and propulsion systems all evolved measurably between the 1990s, 2000s and 2010s shipbuilding cycles.

Key reported specifications for SS Orcades include an overall length of approximately 217 metres.

Onboard programming on a vessel of SS Orcades's profile typically includes multiple dining venues, a central showroom, pool deck areas, a spa and fitness facility, themed bars, and on family-oriented brands children's and teen spaces.

Itineraries assigned to SS Orcades reflect the operator's seasonal deployment plan, which moves vessels between regions to follow demand and weather. Researching the ship's current and upcoming season gives the most accurate picture of where it will sail.
