Premicon Queen in Cologne (2008)

25 river cruise ships are in use at Premicon. Many of the ships are managed by KD Cruise Services, Cyprus , are manned by nautical and technical personnel and are registered in Valletta , Malta . The service staff is provided by the Swiss-Cypriot company Gsell & Partner. Most of the ships are used in time charter by tour operators (Avalon, Nicko Tours, TUI and others). The ocean cruise ship Astor was operated by KD ship management in Bremen (nautical / technical). Due to persistent economic problems at the charterer Transocean, Premicon announced major restructuring in March 2013, both in the marketing of the ship and in the nautical management and hotel management. According to the prospectus, a charter through Transocean was originally planned for 2010-2018.

Structural separation for TwinCruisers

Together with the Neptun shipyard, Premicon developed the TwinCruiser, a new type of river cruise ship in which the aft propulsion unit was structurally separated from the passenger unit. This separation has the consequence that no engine vibrations are transmitted. All seven units built to date are owned by the company's investment funds, including the 5-star river cruise ship - the Thurgau Ultra .
