Oceania Cruises has updated its 2024 Mediterranean schedule, replacing ports of call in Israel, Egypt, and Jordan with 42 revised itineraries.

The Middle Eastern destinations have been replaced with a combination of popular Mediterranean favourites, as well as new destinations.  The revised itineraries range from 10 to 58 days in duration. 

“Our captivating new voyages have been carefully curated to combine beloved beach resorts and jet-set playgrounds with ancient cities steeped in tradition,” stated Frank A. Del Rio, President of Oceania Cruises, a wholly owned subsidiary of Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings Ltd.
