Oceania Cruises has unveiled the inaugural itineraries for Oceania Sonata, the first ship in its new Sonata Class debuting in August 2027. Bookings will open January 28.
Oceania Sonata's first season includes 22 sailings ranging from seven to 16 days. From August 2027 through April 2028, the 1,390-guest vessel will visit more than 90 destinations across Europe, the Caribbean, Mexico and Central and South America.
Oceania Sonata's maiden voyage will depart from Rome (Civitavecchia) on August 7, 2027, beginning a 14-day journey to Trieste. Along the way, the ship will visit Catania, Italy; Valletta, Malta; Katakolon, Greece; Bar, Montenegro; and the Croatian port of Zadar.
“Oceania Sonata's inaugural season is defined by the cultural diversity and geographic variety of the destinations she visits," says Jason Montague, chief luxury officer for Oceania Cruises. "As the first of four ships in the Sonata Class, her premiere sets the tone for the thoughtfully designed itineraries, exceptional comfort and meaningful, unrushed freedom to explore the world that underscore the continued evolution of Oceania Cruises.”
