Oceania Cruises announces 129-day Kangaroo Route voyage for 2027 featuring Dubai

Oceania Cruises has unveiled a new 129-day voyage, the Kangaroo Route, sailing from Sydney to London via Dubai in the UAE aboard Oceania Vista in 2027.

The itinerary will visit more than 80 ports in 34 countries across four continents, with overnight stays in Cairns, Shanghai, Tokyo, Singapore, Mumbai, Luxor, and Bordeaux.

Departing February 26th, 2027, the 1,200-passenger ship will follow a route inspired by historic long-haul air services linking Australia and the UK, combining port calls in Asia, the Middle East, and Europe.

The voyage begins with the Australian east coast before continuing through Indonesia, Japan, and India. Calls in the Gulf include Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and Doha, followed by Egypt and the Mediterranean. In Europe, the itinerary features Greece, Italy, Croatia, Sicily, the French Riviera, Spain’s Costa del Sol, and Bordeaux, concluding in London on June 25th, 2027.

“Our new Kangaroo Route, crafted from the epic 2027 Around the World cruise, is much more than a voyage – it’s a rare invitation to experience a vast part of the world with the comfort, warmth, sophistication and exceptional cuisine that Oceania Cruises is renowned for,” said Jason Montague, Chief Luxury Officer of Oceania Cruises.

“We’re thrilled to offer this immersive new journey of exploration in 2027, aboard Oceania Vista, spanning four and a half remarkable months,” he added. “Our guests crave enriching journeys, and this itinerary has been thoughtfully designed to effortlessly blend diverse continents, vibrant cultures and authentic cuisines into one utterly unforgettable experience.”

A 180-day world cruise from Miami to London

A 244-day Epic Global Adventure from Miami to New York — the longest voyage the line has offered

A 127-day Continental Explorer from Miami to Doha

The voyage will feature the line’s S.A.L.T.-style small-group shore excursions, culinary experiences, and enrichment programming, alongside Oceania Vista’s 11 dining venues and full-service spa facilities.
