The Beluga Liner is a passenger ship added in "The Guardians" update 2.2 .[1] Comparable to an Imperial Cutter in mass and even bulkier in volume, the Beluga is designed to carry passengers to their destination in comfort; only it and its smaller cousin the Orca can be equipped with Luxury Suite Cabin modules, allowing it to transport VIPs. Slow and cumbersome, the Beluga is difficult to maneuver inside a dock, but features a Class 7 Frame Shift Drive and a massive fuel tank that gives it an impressive travel range for long-distance cruises. This ship can be bought in 9 Ceti on "Fanning Vision" and in the Founders World.

Note: Initial reports suggest that this ship has heat management issues, especially while entering and exiting a hyperspace jump. This can be somewhat mitigated with higher grade powerplants.
