AIDAnova deck plans

AIDAnova (2018-built) is the first of AIDA's two newest ships (from the Helios-class series), with sistership AIDAcosma (2021). The shipowner is Costa Cruises (Carnival Corporation-owned company), while the vessel's operator is the German company AIDA Cruises.

AIDAnova cruise ship deck plans show 2600 staterooms for 5400 passengers with lower berths (6600 max capacity) in 21 cabin categories (including single/studios and family cabins). The boat has 20 decks (17 passenger-accessible, 11 with cabins), 17 dining venues (restaurants and food bars), 23 lounges and bars, 22 elevators.

Besides the ship's staff and crew, AIDA cruise passengers are also served by Peper robots - the latest cyborg technology implemented fleetwide in 2016. These humanoid robots greet and guide passengers upon embarkation. They also assist them throughout the cruise by providing information and tips on onboard dining, entertainment, enrichment program (workshops, pre-scheduled events), casino and shopping promotions, shore excursions and tours. Pepper robots are mobile and communicate in 3 languages (English, German, Italian). They can also interpret human emotions by analyzing voice tones and facial expressions.
