Oceania Cruises has unveiled Oceania Sonata, the first of four 1,390-guest ships in the new Sonata Class. Currently under construction by Fincantieri—the renowned Italian shipbuilder behind the celebrated Oceania Marina, Oceania Riviera, Oceania Vista and Oceania Allura—Oceania Sonata is scheduled to embark on its inaugural voyage in August 2027.
Blending grand, light-filled spaces that inspire celebration with serene enclaves designed for relaxation, Oceania Sonata marks the ninth vessel in the Oceania Cruises fleet. The new vessel will be the most spacious and amenity-rich to date, and 30 percent of all accommodations onboard will be suites. Oceania Sonata will debut two brand-new suite categories, plus spectacularly reimagined Owner’s Suites. Ensuring that all guest accommodations have connection with the ever-changing seascapes and landscapes, each suite and stateroom will have a private and spacious veranda.
“We are delighted to unveil Oceania Sonata, the start of our exciting next chapter, as we forge our fantastic future as leaders in luxury cruising,” said Jason Montague, chief luxury officer of Oceania Cruises. “Each new ship offers an opportunity to reimagine and perfect the travel experience, and as the inaugural vessel of our Sonata Class, Oceania Sonata embodies our vision for the future—one defined by a passion for exquisite cuisine, exceptional service and immersive travel experiences—and we cannot wait to share more news in the coming weeks and months.”
Oceania Sonata will feature 10 culinary experiences, blending guest favorites with innovative new concepts that further the line’s enduring commitment to epicurean excellence. Guests can look forward to many of the beloved dining venues and public spaces that have become synonymous with Oceania Cruises, including the Grand Dining Room, as well as signature specialty dining venues such as Jacques, the line’s French restaurant; pan-Asian Red Ginger; Polo Grill steakhouse; and Toscana, serving Italian specialties.
Measuring approximately 86,000 gross registered tons, the ship will accommodate 1,390 guests and be staffed by 855 officers and crew. Additional details on exclusive, never-before-featured-at-sea dining venues and experiences will be revealed in the coming months.
