About Oceania Arietta
Oceania Arietta is a new Oceania Cruises cruise ship of the Sonata class, due to enter service in 2029. She will measure 86,000 gross tons and will carry 1,390 guests.
Oceania Arietta is an upcoming ship, the second of Oceania's planned Sonata class, scheduled for delivery from Fincantieri in 2029. Oceania says each Sonata-class ship will measure about 86,000 gross tons and carry about 1,390 guests, so she will match Sonata in size and be far larger than Oceania's current ships.
