The Costa neoClassica was originally built in 1991. Then in 2001 and 2005 the ship had major refurbishments. Most recently, it was refitted in 2014 to become a part of the neoCollection. The normal capacity is 1,308 passengers with 620 crew. This ship is smaller and much less fancy than the MSC Orchestra we were on a few months earlier. It is similar to the difference between Southwest Airlines and Delta Airlines. We really enjoyed this cruise. Owen adopted a new set of grandparents who we met on our first day trip. By the last few days, I think that Owen preferred Sue and Denis over Damon and me. We also sat next to them at dinner. The only irritation of the cruise is that travel restrictions were placed on traveling to Turkey, so our origination port was changed from Istanbul to Athens. I loved seeing Athens. We have another cruise picked out with Costa going up to the fjords in Norway.
