The
parent company of Costa Cruise Line, the Italian based Costa Crociere
was bought by Carnival Cruise Line in 1997. Needless to say that
Carnival Cruise Line left Costa Cruises operating as a separate brand,
preserving the style and the image Costa Cruises has created for over 50
years in the passenger ship business. As the phrase "Cruising
Italian Style" implies, everything onboard seems to be molto
Italiano, from the cruise ships design to the celebrated
Italian cuisine. In the past the cruise line used to employ all Italian
crew, now days they hire personnel from all over the world, although
Italians are in key management positions. It is fun to work for this
cruise line with it's European atmosphere, passengers are also a mix of
Europeans and Americans and the cruise ships change their itineraries
regularly (summers in Europe and winters in the Caribbean or South
America).
Launched in 1860 as a freighter company
that exported Italian olives and olive oil to destinations all over the
world, Costa Crociere entered the passenger ship business in the 1940s
with the second-hand Anna C. In 1959 Costa Cruises began to offer
Caribbean cruises aboard the Franca C. When the end of the grand liners
came in the 1970s, Costa's vessels were converted into cruise ships.
Costa's last former liner, Costa Riviera, was retired in late 2001.
Following the takeover by Carnival Corporation in 1997 and eventual
complete buyout in 2000, Costa Cruises has launched a number of new
cruise ships. Costa is known for its "Cruising Italian Style"
concept which successfully attracts both North American and European
passengers alike.
Costa Cruises are also very popular with Spanish speaking passengers as
Spanish is widely spoken throughout the cruise line. Costa's Caribbean
cruises are very popular with Americans, while their Europe and
Mediterranean cruises tend to be more popular with and international
crowd (especially Italian). In Europe and the Med, English is not the
language of the ships, but announcements may be made in several
languages.
