Oceania Insignia
Overview
The Oceania Insignia went into service for Oceania Cruises in 2003. The cruise ship underwent a complete, multi-million-dollar refurbishment along with sister ships Oceania Nautica and Oceania Riviera in 2014, with another refurbishment in 2018. New services, amenities, and dining options were included, and rooms were overhauled to create posh and comfortable spaces.
