Cradle Of Empires

There's a new Vista on the horizon for Oceania Cruises, with the foodies favourite welcoming a new 1200-guest ship in 2023, to be followed by an as-yet unnamed sister in 2025. The Miami based line - a subsidiary of Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings - also offers four 684-passenger former R-class ships and two purpose-built vessels that take 1,250, all of which have been extensively renovated in recent years. Oceania, which prides itself on offering "the finest cuisine at sea" will be hoping to raise the culinary bar even higher with Vista. which will feature a grand dining room decorated in early 20th-century Parisian Belle époque style.
