About Oceania Insignia
Oceania Insignia is one of the line's R-class ships, built in 1998 by Chantiers de l'Atlantique in Saint-Nazaire, France, as R One for Renaissance Cruises; at 30,277 gross tons she carries about 670 guests. She joined Oceania in 2003, sailed for Hapag-Lloyd as Columbus 2 from 2012 to 2014, and then returned. In 2025 Oceania billed her 2027 sailings as a farewell tour ahead of a charter to the residential line Crescent Seas, but that agreement was terminated before the end of September 2025. Her current program includes a Miami-to-Buenos Aires voyage over the 2026 holidays, summer 2027 in the Baltic, Iceland and the British Isles, and Mediterranean calls.
