OCEANIA Cruises is set to bring its newest ship Allura into service six days ahead of schedule, on 18 Jul 2025, setting sail on her inaugural voyage from Trieste to Athens.
‘The six-day inaugural cruise will call at eastern Mediterranean destinations including Rijeka, Ravenna, Dubrovnik, and Kotor, with guests booked on the original maiden voyage offered first access to book the new itinerary.
Following her summer season in the Mediterranean, Allura will sail to Canada and New England for a series of immersive voyages in North America, including a one-of-a-kind, four-day round trip from New York City in September 2025.
Allura will then sail her premiere winter season in the Caribbean, home porting in Miami.
“Thanks to the progress made by our valued partners at Fincantieri, we are thrilled to bring Allura into service a week earlier than planned,” President Frank Del Rio said.
“I’m excited to be able to present Allura on a one-time taster voyage to showcase the ship to aspirational travellers who are looking to sample an ultra-premium cruise experience, and even better, sailing from downtown Manhattan.”
Allura is the eighth vessel for Oceania, and will be the cruise line’s second 1,200-guest ship from her namesake class, following on from her sister ship Vista, which launched in May 2023
