Oceania Cruises' second 1,200-passenger Allura-class ship will be named Allura.

Coming in spring 2025, it follows Vista, scheduled to debut in May this year.

'We are thrilled with the incredible demand we have witnessed for Allura's sister ship, Vista, with her 2023 maiden season already sold out, and we know Allura will be equally as popular with our guests,' Oceania Cruises President Frank A. Del Rio said.

Extending elements across the fleet

'The arrival of any new ship is the ideal time to look closely at what we offer travelers. As we prepare to welcome Allura to the family, we have already started planning exciting new elements to be added across the fleet,' he continued.

Allura will measure approximately 67,000gt and be staffed by 800 crew.

New dining venues

Highlights include new dining experiences such as Ember, an upscale signature restaurant serving reimagined American classics, and Aquamar Kitchen, both debuting on Vista in May, as well as large standard staterooms and a new Chef's Studio.

Itineraries to be announced this spring

Allura's inaugural season will encompass destinations in Europe and the Americas, with details to be revealed this spring before bookings open in the summer.

Fincantieri's Sestri Ponente is building the Allura-class vessels.
