Oceania’s Allura: Set Sail for Culinary-Themed Cruises in 2025
Oceania Cruises is preparing to welcome its newest ship, Allura, slated for launch in July 2025. This vessel is the eighth in Oceania’s fleet and aims to enhance the appeal of culturally immersive travel experiences. Allura will kick off her inaugural voyages across the Mediterranean, followed by transatlantic crossings and Caribbean journeys.
Built at Fincantieri’s Italian shipyard, Allura features 613 all-balcony staterooms, accommodating up to 1,200 guests with sweeping ocean views. The ship prioritizes spaciousness and comfort, boasting sophisticated interiors and modern amenities.
Her maiden voyage is set for July 18, 2025, departing from Trieste for a six-night cruise through the Adriatic Sea, stopping at Rijeka, Dubrovnik, and Kotor, before concluding in Piraeus (Athens). Subsequent itineraries promise to explore diverse Mediterranean locations, including Italy, Greece, Croatia, France, and Spain, with carefully curated excursions aimed at highlighting local food, history, and natural attractions.
In September 2025, Allura will embark on her first transatlantic crossing from Lisbon, Portugal. This 14-night journey will take passengers to the Portuguese archipelagos of Madeira and the Azores, with plans to visit Halifax, Portland, and Boston, culminating in New York City. This voyage is designed to offer picturesque views of the fall foliage along the coast.
After her transatlantic trip, Allura will reposition to the Caribbean for the winter season of 2025-2026, offering a mix of 7 to 14-night itineraries from PortMiami, visiting various islands in both the eastern and western Caribbean.
Onboard, the focus will be on exceptional culinary offerings, with multiple dining venues representing a range of global cuisines. Additionally, the ship will feature the Aquamar Spa + Vitality Center, which includes a fitness area, treatment spaces, and an outdoor deck complete with plunge pools and whirlpool spas.
With its debut, Allura is set to redefine the modern luxury cruising experience by delivering intimate voyages that blend outstanding service, innovative dining, and enriching cultural activities.
