Welcome to Oceania Cruises,
Since our first voyage set sail in 2003,
Oceania Cruises has been committed
to destination-rich itineraries featuring
the world’s most fascinating ports of
call. We never stop dreaming of exciting
new voyages, and in July of this year, we
unveiled our first-ever cruise around the world, a 180-day journey
onboard Insignia departing in January 2015. The overwhelming
response to this epic voyage was further proof that our guests
are not tourists, but travelers, and their desire to experience the
world’s wonders never wanes. Thus, we are thrilled to announce
that in July of 2015, Insignia will set sail from Miami on a new
grand adventure, the 180-Day World Odyssey.
At the height of summer, Insignia will sail north to Canada and
New England and then to beautiful Greenland and Iceland.
Insignia will visit some of the most alluring ports in the
Mediterranean, linger overnight in magnificent cities such as
Mumbai, Singapore and Hong Kong, and explore Africa from
Kenya to Cape Town to the Ivory Coast. This remarkable journey
concludes with a holiday season of island hopping in the azure
waters of the Caribbean.
We invite you to come aboard the elegant Insignia for this
unforgettable voyage and experience the very best your world
has to offer with Oceania Cruises.
Sincerely,
Frank Del Rio
Chairman and CEO
od·ys·sey: a long journey full of adventures
: a series of experiences that give knowledge or understanding to someone
: a long wandering or voyage usually marked by many changes of fortune

W e l c o m e A b o A r d
There is no better way to explore your world than on board an
Oceania Cruises ship, where you feel instantly welcomed by the
casually elegant atmosphere, inviting spaces and dedicated staff.
As you travel from one marvelous destination to the next, you
will dine on the finest cuisine at sea in any of our four open-
seating gourmet restaurants. Retire each evening to your richly
appointed suite or stateroom and enjoy a host of complimentary
amenities.
Serene days at sea are filled with enriching entertainment,
whether you prefer to lounge in the plush surroundings of the
library, attend an enlightening culinary demonstration or sip a
cocktail poolside. The Canyon Ranch SpaClub® offers not only
signature massages but also healing therapies, fitness training
and other revitalizing treatments to renew your mind, body
and soul. Of course, one of the greatest joys of sailing is the
spectacular view from Insignia’s decks as you cruise scenic vistas
like the grand fjords of Greenland, the astounding limestone
islands of Ha Long Bay, and the Cape of Good Hope.

Sailing around the globe offers the chance to sample some of the
finest cuisine in the world at the very best shoreside restaurants.
Sailing around the globe with Oceania Cruises means you will
enjoy equally exquisite cuisine on board the ship. Inspired by the
legendary Master Chef Jacques Pépin, who is Executive Culinary
Director for Oceania Cruises, the talented chefs aboard Insignia
create culinary masterpieces. From Continental classics in the
Grand Dining Room to authentic Italian cuisine in Toscana to
perfectly prepared steaks and seafood in Polo Grill, the options
are nearly endless. Of course, a voyage of this scale must take
full advantage of the opportunity to explore world cuisines, so
special events will highlight fabulous local fare. Perhaps the
buffet in Terrace Café features delicious Thai specialties while
cruising the Gulf of Thailand, or a deck party takes on a tropical
flair as you sail the Caribbean Sea. Regardless of the region, an
array of culinary delights awaits you.

While the magnificent worldwide destinations are certainly the
star attraction on this world odyssey, you will enjoy an abundance
of entertaining activities on board the ship as well, many
designed to further enhance your experiences ashore. A bevy of
expert lecturers will share personal insights on the history, arts,
culture and cuisine of the fascinating ports of call you will visit,
so you can experience each to its fullest. Other special guests
will be on board to help celebrate the pure joys of cruising.
Enjoy a bridge tournament conducted by a master of the game,
listen to a talented pianist interpret a classic concerto or learn
the secrets of regional cuisine from a local chef. On days when
you wish to simply relax, the luxurious Canyon Ranch SpaClub®,
the plush English-style library or a Balinese day bed poolside
offers the perfect retreat in which to savor every moment of this
wonderful journey.
