In 2026, travelers can explore destinations in Alaska, the Mediterranean, Northern Europe and beyond with Oceania Cruises.
The cruise line has revealed its 2026 cruise line-up, with more than 100 different itineraries aboard six of its ships. Cruises range from seven to 67 days.
“Oceania Cruises is about discovering the magic of small-ship cruising, where the onboard experiences are just as exceptional as the destinations visited,” says Frank A. Del Rio, president of Oceania Cruises.
Oceania’s 1,250-guest ship Riviera will return to Alaska in 2026, offering 14 unique itineraries that explore the culture, history and wilderness of No. 49. The company will have three ships sailing the Mediterranean—Allura, Insignia and Nautica—with more than 50 itineraries on offer. Vista, Marina and Insignia, meanwhile, will explore the Baltics, Scandinavia, the British Isles, Iceland and Greenland with more than 24 itineraries.
Marina will also offer a special solar eclipse sailing from Copenhagen to Reykjavik. Departing July 30, the vessel will cruise into the path of totality for the August 2026 total solar eclipse. The itinerary also includes an onboard eclipse viewing party, signature cocktail offerings and special cooking demonstrations. Astronomer Dennis Mammana will also join the sailing.
“On board our intimate ships, guests can tailor their experience exactly as they wish, whether that be indulging in a gourmet meal created by our esteemed onboard culinary team or setting out on a shore excursion—the choice is entirely theirs,” says Del Rio. “The convenience of small-ship cruising allows our guests to unpack only once and seamlessly explore iconic cities and hidden treasures; with no lines, they’re able to step ashore quickly, and they are always warmly greeted back aboard with a heartfelt welcome from our onboard team.”
