SINGAPORE, 27 April, 2026: Oceania Cruises unveiled Oceania Aurelia last week, billed as the “ultimate explorer” purposefully designed for extended global discoveries.
Due to commence commercial sailings in late 2027, she will focus on long journeys, including the line’s 2028 and 2029 Around the World voyages as well as a series of Grand Voyages.
The completely reimagined ship, currently sailing as Oceania Nautica, represents a new standard, welcoming fewer than 500 guests, served by 400 officers and crew. Oceania Aurelia will feature luxurious suites with dedicated butler service, defining the onboard experience, with 179 of the ship’s 238 accommodations designed as spacious suites. Most exceed 300 square feet, with some suites spanning up to 1,000 square feet, and many offer living and dining spaces.
“Oceania Aurelia is our ultimate world explorer,” said Oceania Cruises Chief Luxury Officer Jason Montague. “She is designed specifically for guests who desire greater space, more suites and a deeper level of personalised care, particularly for extended journeys. Oceania Aurelia will be a smaller, more club-like ship that truly feels like a home at sea, providing travellers a deeper connection to the ports they visit.”
