Celestyal Discovery deck plan review at CruiseMapper provides newest cruise deck plans (2024-2025-2026 valid floor layouts of the vessel) extracted from the officially issued by Celestyal Cruises deckplan pdf (printable version).

Each of the Celestyal Discovery cruise ship deck plans are conveniently combined with a legend (showing cabin codes) and detailed review of all the deck's venues and passenger-accessible indoor and outdoor areas. A separate link provides an extensive information on Celestyal Discovery staterooms (cabins and suites), including photos, cabin plans and amenities by room type and category.

Celestyal Discovery (2003-built as AIDAaura, last refurbished in 2023, last refurbishment by AIDA in 2019) was the newest among the oldest" and smallest AIDA Cruises ships - together with AIDAvita (2002-built/sistership). Before the acquisition by Celestyal Cruises in November 2023, the shipowner was Costa Crociere/Costa Cruises (Carnival Corporation-owned subsidiary company), while the ship operator was the Carnival Corporation's German subsidiary AIDA Kreuzfahrten.

AIDAaura cruise ship deck plan shows a total of 627 cabins for 1266 passengers (max occupancy is 1300) served by 420 crew-staff. The boat has 12 decks (10 passenger-accessible, 5 with cabins), 3 restaurants, 5 bars and lounges (no casino), 1 swimming pool, 3 Jacuzzis (outdoor whirlpool hot tubs), 6 elevators, dining areas (26260 ft2 / 2440 m2), sundeck areas (37135 ft2 / 3450 m2), Spa & Fitness areas (12920 ft2 / 1200 m2).

Complimentary dining options (included in AIDAaura cruise prices) are the buffet restaurants Markt and Calypso, and the Pool Grill. At an additional charge is the reservation-only Rossini restaurant (with waiter service). At the ship’s buffet restaurants, wine and beer are complimentary for lunch and dinner.

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.
