Great picture.

Having been chartered for about five years by CMV Voyages , from her Portugese owners ' Portuscale Cruises ', the ' Astoria' now has her hull painted black.

After being laid up at Vigo during December 2016 and January 2017 she then visited the dry-docks in Lisbon before returning in early March this year to operate cruises from the UK port of Tilbury.

She next moves to the french market in May 2017 and operates cruises from Marseilles until nearly the end of the year under a sub charter arrangement with a French company.

In March 2018 she is listed as returning and operating some more UK cruises before returning again to the French sub charter operation from Marseilles in May 2018.

It appears that the ' Astoria ' could be replacing the newer built Louis Cruises ' Louis Aura ' on these French cruises as that ship is now laid up at Piraeus, and advertised as for sale, having previously operated cruises for the same French charter company in the past.
