At Oceania Cruises, we are always looking for ways to evolve, elevate and modernize our offerings to continuously surprise and delight our discerning guests as they enjoy immersive new experiences,” said Frank A. Del Rio, President of Oceania Cruises. “We are thrilled with the incredible demand we have witnessed for Allura‘s sister ship, Vista, with her 2023 maiden season already sold out, and we know Allura will be equally as popular with our guests.”
Allura is currently under construction at the Fincantieri shipyard in Italy. Details of her inaugural season, which will feature a variety of boutique destinations across Europe and the Americas, will be revealed this coming spring.
Bookings for Allura are scheduled to open this summer.
Allura‘s sister ship Vista will feature all-balcony cabins with bathrooms that have large vanities and oversized rain showers. It’ll also include a reimagined Martinis bar, the Horizons lounge with floor-to-ceiling windows, and an Aquamar Spa + Vitality Center complete with an outdoor spa terrace.
