AIDAdiva, AIDAluna and AIDAperla were moored at St Johns, Antigua on Monday, with festivities marking the rare gathering of AIDA Cruises vessels.

The ships' crews threw a party on the pier for passengers, involving music, beverages and a FitforDrums workshop, while captains Panagiotis Mantzavinos of AIDAdiva, Sven Gärtner of AIDAluna and Pedro Ziegler of AIDAperla met with colleagues. 

Winter 2022/2023

AIDA vessels will make 27 calls at Antigua during the 2022/2023 winter season. Three AIDA ships will again operate in the Caribbean during the winter 2023/2024 season.

Summer sailings

Starting in March, the three sister ships will leave their winter cruising grounds: AIDAdiva will set sail for Warnemünde where it will depart for Scandinavia voyages during the summer season, AIDAluna will begin offering cruises to Norway and Sweden as well as to the Arctic Circle from Kiel, and AIDAperla will homeport in Hamburg, with the Norwegian fjords on its itinerary.
