Oceania Cruises offers free airfare, drinks and excursions in new value promise

Passengers sailing with Oceania Cruises will receive free round-trip airfare, drinks package and shore excursion credit under the line’s new value promise, Simply More.

For all new reservations from July 1 for sailings departing after October 1, passengers will have “virtually everything” included in their voyage fare, the line said.

Shore excursion credit amounts vary by sailing length, from $600 per stateroom for an itinerary of seven to nine days, up to $1,600 for sailings of 31 to 35 days.

The credit may be redeemed against any of Oceania Cruises’ 8,000 shore excursions in its 600 ports of call.

Free roundtrip airfare and airport transfers will also be included in the sailing price, as well as a free drinks package, which includes premium champagne and wines and more than 20 beers during lunch and dinner.

President of Oceania Cruises Frank Del Rio said: “Thanks to the launch of Simply More, our guests will enjoy even more value, more choice and more convenience than ever before.

“Over the past 20 years, we have continued to adapt and evolve to the wants and needs of our valued trade partners and guests.

“We are always seeking to enhance the Oceania Cruises experience and raise the bar in offering the best value in luxury cruising, so we asked our key audiences, guests and travel partners what they wanted, and that was simplicity, choice and value.

“Through our new Simply More value promise, they now have all three.”
