In a significant moment for the global travel industry, Oceania Cruises has started construction on its newest ultra-luxury ship.
The steel-cutting ceremony for the Oceania Sonata took place at the Fincantieri-Marghera shipyard in Venice, Italy. This event marks the start of a new chapter, not just for the cruise line, but for luxury cruising worldwide.
The Oceania Sonata, scheduled to launch in 2027, will be the first ship in the brand-new Sonata Class. This class is designed to redefine the small-ship cruise experience. It promises more space, greater luxury, and deeper immersion in each destination. The launch strengthens Oceania Cruises’ position as a leader in offering unique, destination-rich voyages focused on exceptional dining and cultural experiences. Demand for this type of travel is growing fast among experienced travelers.
