The Costa Toscana is currently cruising in the Western Mediterranean after undergoing a drydock at the Chantier Naval de Marseille shipyard in France earlier this year.
As part of the ship’s regular maintenance schedule, the two-week project was completed in mid-February.
In addition to routine work, the drydock included technical updates and class inspections.
The Costa Toscana then welcomed guests back on February 15, 2026, kicking off a series of weeklong cruises to destinations in Spain, France and Italy.
Sailing from multiple homeports, the ship’s regular itinerary is highlighted by a visit to Cagliari, on the island of Sardinia.
Other ports of call include Barcelona, Marseille, Genoa and Naples, in addition to Civitavecchia, from which guests are able to visit Rome.
As part of its year-round schedule in Europe, the 5,224-passenger ship continues to sail in the Western Mediterranean through November 2027.
Starting in May, the vessel offers a different seven-night itinerary that sails to Tunisia and the island of Sicily.
In addition to Barcelona, Marseille, Civitavecchia and Savona, the cruise features stops in Palermo and La Goulette.
Instead of the Mediterranean, the Costa Toscana was originally set to offer itineraries in the Middle East during the 2025-26 winter season.
The LNG-powered vessel was set to offer a series of seven-night cruises to destinations in the United Arab Emirates, Qatar and Oman.
Citing uncertainty and security concerns, Costa decided to cancel the season in July 2025, redeploying the ship to the Western Mediterranean and North Africa.
The cancellation followed a similar move by another Carnival Corporation brand, AIDA Cruises, which also decided to cancel its 2025-26 season in the Arabian Gulf.
Costa is now planning to return to the region in 2026-27, with a winter season onboard the Costa Smeralda.
