context_page_description: AIDAmar is a Sphinx class cruise ship, built at Meyer Werft for AIDA Cruises. She is the sixth Sphinx series ship, preceded by sisters AIDAdiva, AIDAbella, AIDAluna, AIDAblu, AIDAsol and followed by AIDAstella. AIDAmar was delivered to the shipping company by Meyer Werft on 3 May 2012.
  AIDAmar was christened in Hamburg on May 12, 2012.
context_section_description: AIDAmar was ordered on 13 December 2007, together with AIDAsol, at Meyer Werft by Carnival Corporation & plc, the parent company of AIDA.
  On 1 April 2012 AIDAmar was floated to Meyer Werft in Papenburg. Fifth in a series of six ships ordered by the German company AIDA Cruises, the ship measuring 252 meters long and 32.2 meters wide. Displaying a gauge 71,300 tons, it has 1,096 cabins. Facilities included are an additional deck, an onboard brewery and a 2,300-m spa facility. The AIDAmar is a sistership of AIDAblu and AIDAsol, delivered in 2010 and 2011 respectively. These ships are slightly larger than the first three series units, the AIDAdiva, AIDAbella and AIDAluna (68,500 tons, 1,025 cabins), completed in 2007, 2008 and 2009 by Meyer Werft.
  After leaving the hall building covered in Papenburg, the AIDAmar went down the river Ems in mid-April to reach the North Sea and to conduct its tests before its release in May of the same year. The last ship of the class Sphinx, the AIDAstella, was delivered by Meyer Werft in late 2013.
