The construction of two new Icon-class giant cruise ships at Meyer Turku ensures continued work for subcontractors, potentially creating new jobs despite a shortage of skilled workers.

The world's largest cruise ship is undergoing sea trials, including testing food services, and is expected to be completed at Meyer Turku shipyard by May, returning to Turku by May Day.

Meyer Turku Group reported improved financial results for the third year in a row, with its CEO announcing significant investments and orders extending until 2036.

Meyer Turku shipyard is set to continue building some of the world's largest cruise ships for an extended period, with plans already underway for the next generation of Icon-class vessels.

Estonian entrepreneurs, previously accused of violating the employment terms of Ukrainian workers, have reportedly returned to the Turku shipyard. Meyer Turku's communications manager confirmed to Yle that the company's contract with the entity in question was terminated this week.

An investigation by HS revealed that entrepreneurs previously accused of exploiting Ukrainian workers quietly returned to the Turku shipyard under a new subcontractor, leading Meyer Turku to terminate the new company's contract.
