bonniecharlie Posted November 10, 2009 #1 Share Posted November 10, 2009 Has anyone any knowledge of the ship called Astoria, it has been brought to Swansea for a refit, and will leave as a luxury cruise ship in a few month's time I dont even know which line it is with. It's not really important, but I am curious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruzaholic41 Posted November 10, 2009 #2 Share Posted November 10, 2009 If it's the Astoria I'm thinking of, it is currently being refitted and renamed as Quest For Adventure. She is now owned by Saga under the Spirit of Adventure brand. Unlike the rest of Saga's ships, she will not have the minimum requirement to be 50 years of age. I do not think she will be considered luxury. BTW...Astoria was owned by Transocean Tours before the transfer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jocap Posted November 10, 2009 #3 Share Posted November 10, 2009 If she's going to be the same as S. of A., her minimum age will be 21. From the brochures, the cruises look very interesting, heavy on lectures etc, and all-inclusive tours.- jocap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jocap Posted November 12, 2009 #4 Share Posted November 12, 2009 Bonnie charlie- the ship is to be the Saga Pearl 2, to replace the one just left service- so it will be for over 50s only.- jocap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
