Two sister ships, Viking Sea and Viking Sky, followed with debuts during April 2016 and February 2017, respectively. Several more ships are currently under construction, with inaugurals anticipated throughout 2022.

What's New for Viking Ocean Cruises?

Being a newer cruise line, everything is new for Viking Ocean Cruises! In March 2019, Viking’s four ocean ships took first place in Cruise Critic’s 2019 Cruisers’ Choice Awards for “Best Overall Ship,” “Best Cabins,” “Best Dining,” “Best for Public Rooms,” “Best Service,” and “Best Value for Money.” Viking Sky took first place for “Best for First-Timers,” while Viking Sun was awarded “Best Entertainment.” Viking Orion took first place for “Best for Fitness & Recreation,” followed by Viking Star for “Best Shore Excursions.”

Viking Sun, the latest addition to Viking Ocean's fleet, launched in October 2017, with Viking Orion planned to follow in her sister ship's wake in June 2018. A third, unnamed ship is scheduled to follow in 2019.

Viking has also announced the commission of two additional ocean ships, debuting in 2021 and 2022, respectively. In March 2018, Viking signed a contract with Fincantieri for an order that would see the delivery of six new cruise ships by 2027. These ships are scheduled for delivery in 2024, 2025, 2026 and 2027. In February 2019, Viking announced the delivery of it’s sixth ocean ship, Viking Jupiter, which will be a sister ship to Viking’s current ships.

After the launch of Viking Star, two new sister ships joined the fleet: Viking Sea and Viking Sky, both cruising the Baltic and Mediterranean. Viking Sea celebrated her maiden voyage in April 2016 and Viking Sky debuted in February 2017.

In December 2014, the 930-passenger Viking Star (which debuted in April 2015) successfully completed its first sea trials on the Adriatic Sea.
