Oceania Cruises’ new ship, Oceania Vista, is joining Oceania’s fleet of boutique, luxury ships in early 2023 with a special “Founder’s Cruise” sailing from Rome to Venice, departing on May 13, 2023. The Founder’s Cruise will be hosted by Oceania Cruises’ Founder Frank J. Del Rio in celebration of the new ship and to commemorate the brand’s 20th anniversary.
“Vista has been driving exceptional demand from the moment we first revealed her inaugural voyages. With all of her maiden season voyages sold out or on waitlist status, we are introducing an additional voyage to satisfy that exceptional demand,” stated Howard Sherman, President and CEO of Oceania Cruises.
Oceania Vista is being constructed by Fincantieri and is the first ship in Oceania’s new Allura class of ships; the second Allura ship is scheduled to arrive in 2025.
