Oceania Cruises is detailing its holiday voyages for the 2024-2025 and 2025-2026 seasons, offering guests stress-free celebrations filled with feasts and beautiful ports of call.
The holiday season on Oceania’s small ships is a great opportunity for guests to enjoy festivities such as Christmas carolers during embarkation, evening performances on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, and a decadent brunch on New Year’s Day following the Champagne New Year’s Eve celebrations the night prior. A large menorah will stand tall with nightly lighting ceremonies throughout Hanukkah, and classic carols will float through the ship during the cruise from a nearby string quartet.
There will be over 40 holiday voyages to choose from over the next two upcoming seasons, with options from a seven-night New Year’s sailing all the way up to 30+ day grand voyages.
