Costa Allegra is a cruise ship for Costa Cruises.

Built in 1969 and originally a container ship for Johnson Lines named Annie Johnson [1], she entered service as a cruise liner in 1992 and refurbished in 2006[1]. She is also Costa's smallest ship. Her eight decks are named after famous impressionist painters. A three deck high glass atrium is the centre of the ship. All throughout the ship, elegant works of art can be found. Currently the vessel spends the larger part of the year operating cruises throughout Asia from the ports of both Singapore and Hong Kong. Countries visited include China, Korea (South), Japan, the Philippines, Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam and Indonesia.
