The One Class Ships like the SS Alesia - 1906
Intending to meet the wishes of patrons of limited means, the Fabre Line has organized a service of single-class ships, corresponding to the cheaper first-class and providing real comfort at significantly reduced rates.
The highest possible care is given on these boats, to the cooking and general service; the cabins are roomy, airy, and all outside. This service is suggested as eminently suitable for tour groups, pilgrims, and families.
These steamers run from New York to Marseilles via the Near East. They thus provide a round trip in the Eastern Mediterranean, which is sure to appeal strongly to the tourist affording a splendid journey in the south-east Mediterranean, under most comfortable conditions, and at exceedingly reasonable rates.
