Cordelia Cruises is operated by Waterways Leisure Tourism Limited (formerly Waterways Leisure Tourism Private Limited). The company was incorporated in 2020, and Cordelia began operations in September 2021.
Mr. Jurgen Bailom was the key executive behind the launch of Cordelia Cruises and served as President & CEO of Waterways Leisure Tourism. He played an important role in selecting and preparing the first ship, The Empress, for the Indian market.
It is more accurate to describe him as the founding/launch CEO and key leader, rather than simply calling him the legal founder of the company.
Cordelia's first ship was The Empress, formerly known as Empress of the Seas under Royal Caribbean. It was purchased by Waterways Leisure Tourism in late 2020 and subsequently introduced under the Cordelia Cruises brand.
Cordelia's inaugural operation was from Mumbai. The Empress began service on 16 September 2021, initially operating a two-night round voyage from Mumbai.
The original planned launch was earlier in 2021, but it was postponed because of the COVID-19 situation in India.
The current published cabin breakdown for The Empress is:
| Cabin category | Number of cabins | Cabin size |
|---|---|---|
| Chairman's Suite | 1 | 596 sq. ft. |
| Suite | 5 | 303 sq. ft. |
| Mini Suite | 63 | 194 sq. ft. + 25 sq. ft. balcony |
| Ocean View Stateroom | 416 | 142 sq. ft. |
| Interior Stateroom | 311 | 117 sq. ft. |
| Total | 796 | — |
The cabin quantities are reported in current company/IPO-related material, while Cordelia's brochure gives the published room dimensions.
The Chairman's Suite is the largest accommodation:
596 sq. ft. cabin + 222 sq. ft. balcony according to Cordelia's brochure.
