Orient Lines Unveils New 20000 Ton Steamer Orontes Maiden Voyage

The Orient Line schedules the 20000 ton steamer Orontes for its maiden voyage from London within weeks, as part of a fleet expansion seen as a strong signal of confidence in Australia’s future. Five vessels built in five years cost about five million pounds, marking a leap in maritime progress since distant days.

A promotional description touts Orontes cabin upgrades and first class luxury aboard steamers. It highlights private dining, open air baths, large lounges, and adaptable spaces including a 2000 square foot deck area convertible to a ballroom. Third class offers high standards, varied cuisine, medical care, and ample social spaces. For explorers, Cairo excursions and sea life at Suez are noted. The piece praises Orient Line’s role in Australian travel and invites inspections in Sydney’s Woolloomooloo Bay.
