⏰ Air Canada Vacations Costa Cruises Mediterranean packages are available now with three 7-night Flight & Cruise itineraries departing Toronto this spring and early summer — and the booking deadline is March 29, 2026, just six days away.

These Air Canada Vacations Costa Cruises Mediterranean packages start from $2,549 CAD per person, taxes, fees, and port expenses included, with prices already reflecting up to $250 in flight credit per stateroom. Choose from Costa Smeralda sailing from Barcelona, Costa Toscana from Rome, or Costa Fortuna from Athens — three distinct Mediterranean embarkation points covering the western, central, and eastern Mediterranean respectively. All packages are backed by ACV's Cruise Promise with a $50 deposit and 100% refundable flights up to 24 hours before travel.

Why Costa Cruises in the Mediterranean Stands Out


Costa Cruises is Europe's largest cruise line — and their Mediterranean itineraries reflect a depth of regional knowledge and port access that sets them apart from North American cruise brands operating in the same waters.


  • Costa Smeralda is one of Costa's flagship vessels — a large, modern ship with an Italian design aesthetic, an extensive culinary program rooted in regional Italian cuisine, and an onboard atmosphere that reflects the warmth and energy of the Mediterranean itself


  • Costa Toscana is one of Costa's newest and most environmentally advanced ships, departing from Rome (Civitavecchia) — an ideal embarkation point that allows travellers to build in a pre-cruise Rome extension before setting sail


  • Costa Fortuna departs from Athens (Piraeus) — placing you at the gateway to the Greek islands and Eastern Mediterranean from day one, with the Acropolis, Plaka neighbourhood, and Athens' exceptional food scene easily accessible the day before or after your sailing


  • Category B1 Ocean View Balcony on Costa Smeralda is a meaningfully upgraded stateroom compared to the Category E1 Ocean View on Costa Toscana and Costa Fortuna — a private balcony for watching the Mediterranean coastline pass at sunrise or sunset is one of cruising's genuine pleasures and worth understanding before you choose


  • Spring departures in May and June place you in the Mediterranean at its best — warm and sunny with long evenings, before the peak summer crowds arrive in July and August

Why Book Through Boarding Pass Travel


Three ships, three embarkation ports, three different slices of the Mediterranean, and a booking window that closes in six days — this is a conversation worth having before March 29.


The stateroom category difference between Costa Smeralda and the other two ships matters. The B1 Ocean View Balcony on Costa Smeralda is a private balcony cabin — a meaningfully different experience from an E1 Ocean View porthole or fixed-window cabin on Costa Toscana and Costa Fortuna. Both Smeralda and Fortuna are priced identically at $2,579 CAD, making the balcony on Smeralda the stronger value of the two at the same price point. We can walk you through the stateroom differences in detail before you decide.


Your choice of embarkation port shapes your entire trip. Barcelona, Rome, and Athens are three of Europe's most compelling cities — and building a pre- or post-cruise extension around any of them adds significant value to the overall journey. We can help you think through whether an extra night in Athens before boarding Costa Fortuna, or a day in Rome before Costa Toscana, is worth adding to your itinerary.


Air Canada Vacations Costa Cruises Mediterranean packages must be booked by March 29. With Costa Smeralda departing May 4, the booking-to-departure window is short — and preferred stateroom categories within the guarantee tiers fill quickly once a promotional deadline approaches. Reaching out today gives your group the best available inventory.


We're here for the full planning conversation. Whether it's pre-cruise hotel nights, travel insurance for a European sailing, or excursion recommendations at each port, we can help you build out the full trip so every day of your Mediterranean sailing is as well-planned as the cruise itself.
