About Oceania Aurelia
Oceania Aurelia is the planned November 2027 reimagining of Oceania Nautica, the 2000-built R-class ship formerly known as R Five. The transformation is designed for extended global voyages, reducing capacity to 476 guests while retaining 400 crew members. Most of the 238 accommodations will be suites, creating a residential, club-like atmosphere with spacious public areas and a high crew-to-guest ratio. As of July 18, 2026, the physical vessel remains Oceania Nautica and has not yet completed the planned renaming and refurbishment.
