Oceania Cruises unveils 2015 summer collection: 76 voyages, 67 overnight port stays, 43 new itineraries



-MIAMI – Oceania Cruises has announced its 2015 Summer Collection featuring voyages to the Mediterranean, Northern Europe, Alaska, Canada, Asia and Africa.

The award-winning fleet of Regatta, Insignia, Nautica, Marina, and Riviera will offer a diverse collection of itineraries, with 24 exciting new ports of call on four continents during the 2015 summer season.

Among the new ports are Luanda, Angola; Paamiut, Greenland; Trois-Rivières, Québec; Archangel, Russia; Skiathos, Greece; Londonderry, Northern Ireland; Wismar, Germany; and Palamós, Spain. Also new this season is a series of Grand Voyages in Europe. Ranging in length from 20 to 70 days, these longer itineraries offer guests multiple opportunities for extended exploration during the summer.

"Our 2015 Summer Collection is perfect for those who enjoy a taste of the finer things in life," shares Kunal S. Kamlani, the line's president. "With a fantastic mix of marquee cities, boutique ports of call and extended port stays, we set a new standard for immersive destination experiences."
 
New Voyages Nautica, Marina, and Riviera will set sail on 43 incredible European itineraries, 40 of which are new. Nautica will spend the majority of the season exploring the majesty of the British Isles, the Baltic and Scandinavia, sailing as far north as Greenland, while Marina will also explore the region before making her way around the Iberian Peninsula to embark on several cruises in the Western Mediterranean. Featuring all new itineraries, Riviera will call the Mediterranean, the Greek Isles, Turkey and the Black Sea home for the season. Regatta will spend the summer in Alaska offering her perennial favorite 7- and 10-day itineraries as well as five all new sailings, including the exciting 12-day Glacial Explorer. In the fall, she will sail for New York City on a new Panama Canal cruise and then showcase the autumn foliage with four cruises throughout New England and Canada. 

Due to the overwhelming response to the line's first-ever world expedition unveiled last summer, Insignia will depart on a second 180-day voyage on July 8, 2015. Unlike conventional world cruises that commence in winter, this unique voyage will spend the summer sailing from Miami through New England and Canada to Greenland, Iceland and Norway. Insignia will then call on France, Portugal and Spain en route to Italy and other alluring destinations in the Mediterranean. As the winter season begins, the voyage will explore Asia and Africa before returning to Miami. Individual segments within the 180-Day World Odyssey will open for bookings with the launch of the 2015 summer season, as will Grand Voyages featuring various combinations of these itineraries. 

"We are always creating new itineraries to enhance and enrich the ways in which our guests discover the world. These new voyages present the most sought-after destinations around the globe and deliver them at an unrivaled value," added Kamlani.
