Azamara Onward

Mediterranean seasons and a Pacific crossing

Azamara Onward spends most of her year in the Mediterranean, sailing between Athens, Venice, Rome and Barcelona, and breaks away for long ocean voyages from Miami across the Pacific. Her Mediterranean departures run from March to December, so the European summer sailings fall in the Australian winter.

In the Eastern Mediterranean she sails round trips of 7, 11, 12 and 14 nights from Piraeus for Athens in April and October. Stops change between departures, but Santorini, Rhodes and Mykonos are typical, and some of the longer trips reach Istanbul. She also runs 9-night one-ways from Fusina for Venice to Piraeus in March, June and September, and Split, Dubrovnik and Kotor are among the ports you might see.

Further west, she runs 7- and 10-night one-ways that start in Civitavecchia for Rome or in Barcelona. Some finish at the other of the two, and others in Nice, Málaga, Lisbon or Venice. Ports vary, though Livorno for Florence and Portoferraio on Elba are among them. A 12-night one-way from Barcelona to Venice can take in Dubrovnik and Kotor on the way. You can browse Mediterranean cruises in 2027, or those still sailing in 2026.

Her Transpacific voyages are one-ways of 41, 56 and 83 nights that leave Miami in January and finish in Sydney, Auckland or Hong Kong. The route varies, but Cartagena, Easter Island and Bora Bora are among the places she can call, giving weeks of sea days and island calls in a single trip. Her Miami departures mean a flight from Australia, and where she finishes in Sydney, that is the easy end: no flight at all if you live there, or a short domestic hop if you don’t. Wherever she sails from, we book the flights, the hotel either side and the transfers with the cruise, as one holiday. Azamara Onward sails alongside Azamara Journey, Azamara Quest and Azamara Pursuit in the Azamara fleet.

Port-inspired dining on Azamara Onward

Dining on Azamara Onward takes its cue from the itinerary, and Windows Cafe and Discoveries Restaurant, both included in the fare, set the tone. At Windows Cafe, a rotating live station works with ingredients sourced in port, such as Greek feta salads in Greece and mushroom pasta in Italy, and dinners follow daily themes from Indian and Mexican to Spanish and Italian. Discoveries Restaurant pairs dishes inspired by the voyage’s ports with international classics such as filet mignon with truffle sauce, and you can dine for two or with a larger group.

The Patio is a pool grill by day and becomes an outdoor restaurant in the evening, with dishes reflecting each port, and Swirl & Top’s self-service frozen yoghurt is included too. For a special night, Aqualina and Prime C carry a charge: Aqualina serves Italian cooking with homemade pasta, and Prime C serves steaks, lamb, duck and seafood cooked to order.

Cocktails, cabaret and a piano bar

Evenings aboard centre on Atlas Bar for handcrafted cocktails, the Cabaret Lounge for live shows and The Den for piano music after dark. At Atlas Bar, watching the bartenders at work is part of the evening, with warm and cold small plates alongside. The Cabaret Lounge puts musical revues and classical soloists on a full stage in an intimate room with its own bar. The Den is a daytime spot for browsing destination ideas and turns into a piano bar with a live pianist at night. The Living Room, with its armchairs and sofas, is the place for a quiet drink with fellow guests.

Select standard spirits, international beers and wines are included in her bars, while premium drinks are charged. By day, the baristas at Mosaic Cafe make speciality coffees and teas to your liking, and those are included too.

Azamara Onward cabins and deck plans
