Ship history

The expedition cruise ship is built to the ice-strengthened, Polar Class 6 standards and comes with the ULSTEIN X-BOW® technology, allowing for smoother sailing and deeper exploration into polar areas, enhancing the passengers' and crews' comfort as the vessel traverses the world's seas. It comes with environmentally friendly standards with reduced emissions into air and sea and lower energy consumption and runs on low-sulphur marine gas oil.

The flexible design of the INFINITY class series opens up new possibilities for every new vessel. The 'Ocean Odyssey' marks Vantage Cruise Line's second entry into luxury expedition cruising, this being the sister ship to the 2021 delivery, the 'Ocean Explorer'. A novelty for these two vessels is the unique entrance atrium on decks 4 and 5. Another feature, and very characteristic of these two vessels, is the atrium forward consisting of a two-level lounge with a piano bar and panoramic bow windows.
