Passengers booking these cruises will have a special captain’s cocktail reception with archive footage covering the highlights of the Costa Cruises story.

There is also a gala dinner featuring a traditional dish from the past and commemorative cake.

Passengers will also be presented with a “60th anniversary cruise” certificate.
