Pacific Star will be renamed for the fourth time in her history following the sale. She was built in 1982 and christened Carnival Tropicale before being moved to Costa Cruises and renamed Costa Tropicale.
Currently cruising in the southern hemisphere, she has a capacity to carry 1,350 passengers and weighs 35,000 tons. The date for the transfer has not yet been announced.
