Oceania Sonata is the first in a brand new class of ships from Oceania Cruises. The 1,390 passenger ship is scheduled to debut in August 2027, and be a blend of intimate, luxurious experiences.

The vessel will be 86,000 gross tons in size and be staffed by 855 officers and crew.

The ship will be the ninth in Oceania’s fleet and will be anchored by the cruise line’s passion for gastronomy and its legacy of serving the Finest Cuisine at Sea.

30% of the cabins on the ship will be suites. Oceania will debut two new suite categories on the vessel, as well as reimagined Owner’s Suites.

One thing you won’t find on the ship will be inside cabins, all staterooms will have a private and spacious veranda.
