Costa updates 2021-2022 cruise schedules
Following its Mediterranean restart, Costa Cruises is continuing with its program to resume operations, announcing new updates for the late 2021 and 2022 seasons.
Costa Firenze, the latest ship to join Costa fleet, will enter service this 4 July from Savona and will operate in the Mediterranean until the end of November 2021.
In winter 2021-22 the ship will sail from Dubai for cruises in the UAE, Oman and Qatar, including visits to Expo 2020 Dubai.
From April 2022 the ship will return to offer week-long cruises in Italy, France and Spain.
Costa’s presence will be further strengthened by Costa Toscana, a ship currently under construction that will be powered by liquefied natural gas and will debut in December 2021.
Throughout 2022, Costa Toscana will offer seven-day cruises in the Western Mediterranean, which will enable visits on the same vacation to two Spanish destinations — Barcelona and Valencia in spring, or Ibiza and Valencia in summer.
In winter 2021-2022, the current flagship Costa Smeralda will replace her sister ship Costa Toscana in South America, before returning to the Mediterranean for cruises in Italy, France and Spain.
"Costa’s offer for the remainder of this year and all of next year is rich and solid. As a result of positive feedback and requests we received after the opening of sales, we have made improvements and additions to our programs, continuing our plan for a gradual, phased-in restart in a still-evolving situation," said Mario Zanetti, President of Costa Cruises.
Further updates to Costa’s programs will be gradually available in the coming weeks on Costa’s reservation systems.
