Frequently Asked Questions
Ten, out of 658. They are the Grand Terrace Suites. The junior suites have a porthole only, 430 cabins have an ocean view through a porthole or fixed window, and 216 are inside. Two per cent of the ship has a step-out balcony.
She carried three names. Costa Classica from 1991 to 2014, Costa neoClassica from 2014 to March 2018, then Grand Classica until May 2022. The current name dates from May 2022. It is the same hull throughout thirty-five years.
She left the yard in 1991. Sources disagree on the building yard's city, so we publish none. Two recent dry dockings, in May 2023 and in January 2026.
Yes, two collisions. In 2008 near Dubrovnik, minor damage. In 2010 near Shanghai, a cargo vessel opened her starboard side over roughly eighteen metres above the waterline, repaired in ninety-six hours.
It was abandoned mid-project in the early two thousands. The ship was to be lengthened by forty-five metres; the section already built went for scrap. This is a ship whose design was interrupted along the way.
Yes. On 1 May 2024 she scored 83 out of 100 on a surprise sanitation inspection, against a passing score of 86, with sixty-five violations: corrosion on potable water lines, refrigeration units out of temperature, whirlpools over capacity.
Yes, in July 2022. The United States Coast Guard held her at the pier over deficiencies affecting automatic door closure, and therefore fire compartmentation. Travellers already aboard disembarked the next day and compensation was paid.
One thousand three hundred and eight at double occupancy, and up to 1680 at maximum capacity. The gap exceeds three hundred and seventy people: at full load the pool, the buffet and the public rooms take far more than they were designed for.
Yes, on this ship. A fuel supplement is added per person and per night, on top of the daily service charge. Two mandatory charges stacked on the advertised fare, and the commonest source of complaint.
From Port of Palm Beach, at Riviera Beach in Florida, for two to five nights towards the Bahamas, Key West and Cozumel. Our inventory carries one hundred and forty-one dates, thirty-six in 2026 and one hundred and five in 2027.
A daily service charge, mandatory, posted automatically to the onboard account per person and per night. The line states it is neither adjustable nor removable. Since February 2025 a charge also applies to optional services.
With Classica Cruise Operator Ltd., not with the brand painted on the hull. That company operates under licence from Margaritaville Enterprises, LLC. The country of incorporation appears nowhere, not even in the passage contract.
Sixty-six centimetres maximum width for a personal device, which must stow in the cabin. Above eleven kilos, a powered device will not be lifted by the crew. At tender calls, forty-five kilos is the transfer limit.
It must be requested early and in writing. Notice is forty-five days for most accommodations, and the line publishes no inventory of adapted cabins, which makes availability impossible to judge from outside.
Because the contract binds you to an American company for which nothing establishes a Quebec licence, with a Florida court and very short deadlines. The trust account and the Compensation Fund follow only a booking made here.
