Oceania Cruises has launched its 2028 & 2029
Collection of Voyages, featuring more than 230 itineraries worldwide ranging
from seven to 180 days. With bookings opening today, the simultaneous release
of two full future seasons gives guests and travel advisors additional time to
plan ahead, while more than 60 overnight port stays promise deeper exploration
of destinations across the globe.
The new collection spans an extensive range of
destinations, from the ancient ruins of Ephesus and Japan's lesser-visited
ports to Alaska's remote wilderness, Iceland's volcanic landscapes and New
Zealand's dramatic fjords. Guests can also sail through the Indonesian
archipelago or experience Canada's autumn colours along the St. Lawrence River.
“This new, expansive collection reflects our passion
for immersive travel opportunities and offers guests the chance to explore a
little further with more depth thanks to more than 60 overnight stays.
Launching sailings for 2028 and 2029 underscores our commitment to giving
guests and travel advisors the confidence and time to plan the journeys that
truly matter,” said Jason Montague, Chief Luxury Officer of Oceania Cruises.
More overnight stays and new voyage highlights
A hallmark of the new collection is the inclusion of
more than 60 overnight port stays in destinations such as Copenhagen, Lisbon,
Bangkok, Bali, Seville and Malé. Combined with late-evening departures, these
extended calls allow travellers to experience local culture beyond a
traditional day visit.
Among the programme highlights, Oceania Riviera will
return to Alaska before repositioning to Asia, where itineraries focus on
Japan's smaller ports, including Kagoshima, Ishigaki and Miyazaki, alongside
Tokyo and Osaka.
The new Oceania Aurelia will make her debut with
inaugural 180-day Around the World voyages in 2028 and 2029. Carrying fewer
than 500 guests, the ship will sail from Miami and Los Angeles respectively
before concluding in New York.
Meanwhile, Oceania Allura will return for a second
winter season in the Mediterranean, operating more than 80 itineraries through
Greece, Türkiye, Italy and Spain between November and March.
Worldwide itineraries across every region
The collection includes extensive programmes in
Europe, the Caribbean, Asia, Australia and New Zealand, Canada and New England,
as well as seven transoceanic repositioning voyages.
European itineraries range from the Greek islands and
the Norwegian fjords to Scandinavia and the Baltic, while Caribbean cruises
combine island itineraries with Panama Canal crossings and voyages through
Central America and Mexico.
In Asia, Oceania Marina and Oceania Riviera will focus
on both major cities and smaller Japanese ports, complemented by overnight
stays in Bangkok and Singapore and cruises through the Indonesian archipelago.
Australia and New Zealand itineraries feature scenic
cruising through Milford Sound, while Canada and New England voyages highlight
autumn foliage, colonial history and the Bay of Fundy.
Best Value Guarantee
Oceania Cruises continues to offer its Best Value
Guarantee, allowing guests to benefit from improved offers released before
departure. Depending on the booking stage, travellers may receive a fare
adjustment, onboard credit, a stateroom upgrade or future cruise credit.
The guarantee complements the line's Your World

prepaid gratuities as standard.
