Oceania Cruises is making significant changes to its popular ‘Your World Included’ package, effective October 1, 2024. The revamped package aims to provide guests with even more value, but it also introduces new costs for certain services.
Starting with new bookings made on or after October 1, 2024, for sailings departing on or after January 1, 2025, the ‘Your World Included’ package will now cover all gratuities, specialty dining, and unlimited Wi-Fi. This means that guests will no longer have to worry about tipping crew members, paying extra for meals at gourmet restaurants, or facing data charges while onboard.
However, the line has also announced that guests will now have to pay for alcoholic beverages during meals and for shore excursions. Previously, these services were often included as part of travel partner or loyalty club amenities or for guests from specific regions.
Oceania Cruises explains that these changes are a direct result of guest feedback, with the company aiming to create a more personalized and customizable experience. The new ‘Your World Included’ package now provides a core set of complimentary amenities, allowing guests to choose additional extras such as transfers, shore excursions, or a beverage package based on their preferences.
