Cruise News: Oceania Allura Sets Sail on Her Inaugural Season in Summer 2025

Oceania Allura Graces the High Seas

Updated on 13 November 2025

Oceania Cruises has launched the brand-new Oceania Allura, the eighth elegant boutique ship in their ultra-luxury fleet, which officially embarked on her six-day maiden voyage last July 2025. Her debut journey began in Trieste, Italy, calling at some of the most enchanting Eastern Mediterranean destinations in Croatia, Italy and Montenegro, all before coming to a memorable end in Athens, Greece.

Oceania Allura spans 804 feet and weighs over 68,000 gross tons, accommodating 3,571 guests at double occupancy. Built on the monumental success of Oceania Vista, this second Allura-class vessel will perfectly mirror the style and innovation of her sister ship.  The latest evolution in the Allura class fleet represents the brand’s bold vision to deliver next-generation luxury travel experiences and its unwavering commitment to continue their legacy as the world’s leading culinary- and destination-focused cruise line.

Afternoon Tea

 Food is at the heart of every Oceania Cruises journey, making it one of the world’s most luxurious cruise lines dedicated to providing The Finest Cuisine at Sea®. Aboard Allura, guests can enjoy a ratio of one unrivalled chef for every eight guests plus a team dedicated culinary staff that makes half of the ship’s crew population. 

The all-new ship has pioneered The Crêperie, a brand-first culinary venue next to the line’s signature coffee bar Baristas, offering an extensive array of sweet treats, such as French crêpes, Belgian and bubble waffles, and Italian ice cream sundaes.

A wide selection of delectable delicacies await at the Grand Dining Room, boasting over 270 new recipes from the world-class culinary team. This main dining venue oozes European sophistication with its decadent decor and ornate chandeliers. For a more relaxed culinary experience, guests can continue indulging time-honoured favourites at the classic steakhouse Polo Grill and the nourishing flavours of Aquamar Kitchen. 

Aiming to bring global flavours to the table, Allura has emerged with Jacques, a brand-signature French restaurant, featuring reimagined menus and innovative experiential dishes, as well as Red Ginger, known for serving the best of Japanese-Peruvian fusion cuisine. Toscana is also part of the ship’s restaurant line-up, where guests can savour tantalising Tuscan-inspired meals in a refined dining setting. 

The immersive mixology and art of wine pairing completes the epicurean experience on board Allura. Introduced with the newest Oceania vessel, Gerard Bertrand Wine Pairing Luncheon is a unique dining experience where guests can enjoy a six-course meal paired with premium hand-picked wines from the Gérard Bertrand collection at the Jacques restaurant.

Beyond the extraordinary gastronomic adventure, guests are in for truly pleasurable cruises as Allura boasts the most spacious standard staterooms at sea, measuring more than 290 square feet, fully furnished with top-of-the-line amenities and lavish bathrooms. Another new location for the ultimate relaxation on board is the Library, surrounded by floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking sweeping sea views!

Following her monumental maiden voyage, the all-new Oceania Allura champions creativity and discovery through an immersive digital Art Experience – bringing the beauty and wonder of the seas aboard the ship! Starting November 2025, the artistic initiative will stimulate the senses with nearly 30 highly acclaimed artworks, intricately curated by 14 talented artists from 7 countries. 

Spanning decks 5 and 6, this interactive Art Experience is exclusive to guests of the latest Oceania ship, with the collection centred around the Grand Lounge and the Martinis bar – offering a perfect blend of relaxed ambience and creative artistry. Guests can conveniently scan the QR codes discreetly displayed across the ship to get a glimpse into the artists’ artistic process and inspirations. 

Guests are encouraged to follow their own course through the Art Experience, engaging in a more personal way and at a leisurely pace. Alternatively, a custom-designed website, which is accessible via mobile devices, offers a recommended route for those who prefer a structured and guided experience. Select artworks in exclusive prints are available for purchase, allowing guests to take home a memento of their unforgettable journey with Oceania Cruises!

NEW, BIGGER SHIPS COMING SOON!

Following the debut of Oceania Allura, the up-and-coming Oceania Sonata is set to grace the high seas in summer 2027, making her the class leader of Oceania Cruises’ first Sonata class fleet, then will later be joined by her sister ship Oceania Arietta in 2029. These two Sonata class vessels are expected to carry more passengers than their predecessors, setting the standard even higher in the World of Cruising!
