It is always interesting, and Louis isn't hiding its ships : there is a small picture of the "Serenade" beneath a much bigger one of the pyramids !
At the end, there is a page dedicated to both Serenade and Ausonia, with particulars and deckplans.
Tough you all have studied Serenades deckplans well before, I only now noticed that "Serenade" has something special :
the lowest four decks have two names, one aft, and forward (there is no internal connection for passengers on these decks). I think this is the first time i saw this.
Also it is clear that Louis has retained much of "Mermoz" : even the main lounge is still called "Grand Salon Mermoz", the restaurant is called "Massilia", and the names of the decks are in french spelling like : "Deck des Etoiles" (which i find rather nice), Deck Soleil, Deck Djibouti, Deck Equateur, Deck Floride, Deck Epidaure.
Or am I wrong ?
HAs anyone sailed on "Serenade" recently ?
PAm it right : it is slightly more than 100 EUR PPN
This brochure mentions cruises to Libanon, but my colleague said these were cancelled, when she was there.

When she was sailed as Mermoz in the mid- 1980's, her decks named as same as now, Pont des Etoiles, Soleil, Atlantide, Bahamas, Caribes, Delos(Forward) - Djibouti(aft), etc and Public room's names unchanged as from the Mermoz days
Sapphire was added a few cabins on decks Caraibes, Delos, Equater-Epidaure and Fjords-Floride.
