Oceania Cruises, known for its culinary and destination-focused voyages, has introduced a new value promise called Your World Included™, bringing additional amenities for guests across all regions. This announcement marks a shift towards a more all-inclusive experience, with gratuities for stateroom attendants, butlers, and dining waitstaff now automatically included in every guest's cruise fare.
Beginning October 1, 2024, all new reservations for Oceania Cruises sailings departing on or after January 1, 2025, will benefit from the enhanced inclusions of Your World Included. This new offering will replace Oceania’s current simply MORE™ program, which previously featured shore excursion credits and beverage packages. These changes follow feedback from guests, who expressed a preference for core inclusions that mattered most to all travellers—chief among them, gratuities.
President of Oceania Cruises, Frank A. Del Rio, emphasised this guest-driven approach: “Our guests place the greatest value on our core inclusions such as free specialty dining and free WiFi. Including gratuities creates the richest possible array of amenities and benefits for our guests globally."
The all-new Your World Included package adds over $1,800 of value per stateroom on a typical 10-day cruise, offering a significant enhancement to Oceania's already renowned onboard experience. This figure reflects the typical charges for amenities like WiFi, specialty dining, and non-alcoholic beverage packages on other premium cruise lines.
With this update, guests will enjoy a suite of generous amenities that span from luxury dining to eco-friendly services. Here’s what’s part of the new Your World Included value promise:
For Oceania Cruises, this new value promise underscores their commitment to providing uncompromised luxury at sea. Del Rio highlighted the cultural significance of their service: “We are adding in gratuities for all guests, as our dedicated onboard team is working for guests' smiles – not their tip. Making every interaction count is our service culture mantra."
Guests can still customise their cruise experience with optional extras like air transportation, shore excursions, or beverage packages. However, the updated Your World Included program ensures that Oceania’s core offerings remain at the highest standard, providing value and convenience across every voyage.
With these new inclusions, Oceania Cruises solidifies its place as the leading ultra-premium cruise line of choice. Guests will find the enhanced Your World Included offerings cater to every aspect of their journey, from indulgent dining to luxurious onboard relaxation.
For travellers looking to book a cruise that delivers both luxury and value, Oceania’s new approach ensures that you can explore the world in style without worrying about hidden costs.
