The twin, launched a year later

The Oceania Riviera left the Fincantieri yards at Sestri Ponente in July 2011 and entered service in May 2012. She repeats the dimensions of her twin, the Oceania Marina, exactly: sixty-six thousand and eighty-four gross tons, six hundred and twenty-five staterooms, one thousand two hundred and fifty guests, fifteen decks.

The differences between the two are decoration and a few fittings, not architecture. A guest who liked one will feel at home on the other.

The deepest inventory after the Allura

One hundred and thirty-nine departure dates: twenty-four in 2026, fifty-seven in 2027, forty-six in 2028 and twelve in 2029. As the 1998 hulls leave the fleet, this ship and her twin become the heart of the medium-term offer, alongside the two recent hulls.

Why this format appeals

The ratio of tonnage to guests leaves room for dining rooms, and that is where this line puts its money. Speciality restaurants are included in the fare, with no cover charge. That is the argument that sets it apart, and it is verifiable aboard rather than in a brochure.

The number of wheelchair-accessible staterooms is published for no ship in this fleet. We check it at booking rather than quote a figure.

What is included, and what changed in 2024

Start with what many people still think they know. The simply MORE package, which added a shore excursion credit and an alcoholic beverage package to the fare, ended on 30 September 2024. Its replacement, Your World Included, applies to bookings created from 1 October 2024 for sailings in 2025 and later. It gives more in some respects and less in others.

What it adds: shipboard gratuities are now included for every guest everywhere, where before they came only with certain regions or loyalty programmes. What it removes: the excursion credit and the alcoholic beverage package are no longer granted automatically. A guest who booked with this line before autumn 2024 therefore arrives with an idea that is no longer accurate.

The rest of the fare is stable and it is substantial. Speciality restaurants are included, with no cover charge, and this line makes that its central argument. In-suite dining is included. Starlink Wi-Fi is included and unlimited. Soft drinks, speciality coffees, teas, still and sparkling water, juices, smoothies and ice cream are included. So are group fitness classes and laundry service.

Shore excursions and alcoholic drinks are paid separately, or bought as a package before departure. Ask your advisor exactly what your booking carries, because two files on the same ship may not include the same things depending on their date.

Meanwhile, in the fleet

The Oceania Allura, delivered in 2025, is the newest ship in service, and the Oceania Vista of 2023 is her twin. The fleet still holds three hulls from the 1998 series, two of them with a known exit date.

Booking from Quebec

The contract is with Oceania Cruises S. de R.L., headquartered in Miami, and the ships fly the flag of the Marshall Islands. A claim for personal injury, illness or death goes to the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida in Miami, or to a Miami-Dade County court. Every other claim goes to binding arbitration before National Arbitration and Mediation in Miami, and the contract imposes a class-action waiver. Only small claims filed in Miami-Dade County escape that clause.

The deadlines differ by claim type, and the second one surprises people. Six months' written notice and one year to sue, for personal injury. But thirty days' notice after the cruise ends for any other claim, and six months to act. Damaged luggage, a service not delivered, a cancelled call: thirty days from disembarkation. Baggage liability is capped, and the cap rises only on a declaration of value with a fee attached. The Athens Convention applies to international cruises calling at neither a US nor a European port, with its own limits.

The carrier reserves the right to change the date or time of sailing, the port of embarkation or the destination, to shorten the cruise or substitute the ship, without notice and without compensation, except as the law requires. Nothing establishes a Quebec licence for it. Your protection comes from here: Voyages AquaTerra holds a licence from the Office de la protection du consommateur, your payments pass through a trust account, and your departure is covered by the compensation fund for travel agency customers.

Frequently Asked Questions

Less on one count, more on another. The simply MORE package, which added a shore excursion credit and an alcoholic beverage package, ended on 30 September 2024. Its replacement now includes shipboard gratuities for every guest everywhere, but it no longer grants the excursion credit or alcohol automatically. A guest who booked before autumn 2024 therefore arrives with an idea that is no longer accurate.
Not automatically, not any more. The excursion credit was part of the simply MORE package, which ended on 30 September 2024. Shore outings are booked and paid separately, or bought as a package before departure. It is a change that still surprises many guests loyal to this line.
Yes, and that is the gain from the 2024 change. Shipboard gratuities, for stateroom attendants, butlers and dining staff, are included for every guest everywhere. Before, they came only with certain regions or loyalty programmes. Nothing is posted to your onboard account on that account.
Not automatically, not any more. The alcoholic beverage package came with simply MORE and has not been granted since 30 September 2024. Soft drinks, speciality coffees, teas, still and sparkling water, juices and smoothies remain included. Wine, beer and spirits are paid separately or bought as a package.
Yes, all of them, with no cover charge. That is this line's central argument and the one most easily verified aboard. The recent hulls carry more of them than the 1998 ships, simply because they are twice the size. In-suite dining is included too.
Yes, Starlink Wi-Fi is included and unlimited. It is a full inclusion, not a quota of devices or minutes. On a long itinerary or in high latitudes coverage can vary with the ship's position, but the service itself is not charged.
A great deal, and quickly. The four hulls of the 1998 series are going: the Oceania Regatta left on 17 August 2026, the Oceania Nautica stops on 15 October 2027, the Oceania Sirena on 24 March 2028, and only the Oceania Insignia has no announced date. Against them come hulls twice the size, the Oceania Sonata in 2027 and the Oceania Arietta in 2029.
No, and the point deserves to be clear. The Oceania Aurelia is the Oceania Nautica rebuilt and renamed, not an extra ship. The hull stops sailing under its present name on 15 October 2027 and returns late the same year under the new one. Our two pages carried the same departure dates when we measured, which invited confusion.
We do not know, and we prefer to say so. No technical sheet from this line publishes the number of wheelchair-accessible staterooms. We check it file by file at booking. The 1998 hulls have nine accessible decks, the recent hulls more, which also changes the distances to cover aboard.
It is worth reading before you sign. The contract is with Oceania Cruises S. de R.L. in Miami, under the flag of the Marshall Islands. Personal injury goes to the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida or a Miami-Dade court; everything else goes to binding arbitration before National Arbitration and Mediation in Miami, with a class-action waiver.
Thirty days from disembarkation, for any claim other than personal injury, and six months to act. That is short. Damaged luggage, a cancelled call, a service not delivered: the clock starts when the cruise ends. For personal injury, six months' written notice and one year to sue. Write your disembarkation date down somewhere.
In decoration and a few fittings, not in architecture. The two ships share exactly the same dimensions: sixty-six thousand and eighty-four gross tons, six hundred and twenty-five staterooms, one thousand two hundred and fifty guests, fifteen decks. A guest who liked one will feel at home on the other.
She left the Fincantieri yards at Sestri Ponente in July 2011 and entered service in May 2012, a year after her twin. The two form this fleet's middle generation.
One hundred and thirty-nine dates: twenty-four in 2026, fifty-seven in 2027, forty-six in 2028 and twelve in 2029. As the 1998 hulls leave, this ship and her twin become the heart of the medium-term offer.
It depends on what you eat. The ratio of tonnage to guests leaves room for dining rooms, and the speciality restaurants are included with no cover charge. If you do not plan to use them often, the argument loses its force.
