Costa Diadema is the second ship operated by the Italian company to resume service and marks the return of cruising with Costa to Liguria and the Western Mediterranean. On October 10 it will be the turn of the flagship Costa Smeralda to set sail again while December 27 sees the debut of the new fleet member Costa Firenze, with both ships calling regularly at Liguria's three main ports. AlDAblu will be calling in La Spezia.
The company has developed a health and safety protocol including COVID-19 swab testing for all guests and crew, temperature screening, tours of destinations on protected excursions, physical distancing thanks partly to a reduction in the number of passengers, new ways of enjoying shipboard amenities and services, enhanced sanitization and increased health care facilities.
Infrastructure development, green transition, tourism development and social commitment are the four cornerstones of Costa's vision.
