THE BLEU DE FRANCE will undergo a $41.6 million refurbishment, giving it a "cultural transformation" to "make the ambiance more French," RCCL said. French will be the primary language used on CDF Croisieres de France ships, and the entertainment will be Francophone, RCCL said. The Bleu de France will offer seven-day Mediterranean sailings next summer departing from Marseille, and during the winter 2008-2009 season it will offer Caribbean cruises departing from La Romana, Dominican Republic. The new line said it would unveil its logo and itineraries on Sept. 26 at an event in Deauville, France.
