In 1990 the ship was lengthened at the same shipyard in Papenburg, Germany. In 2002 the vessel was transferred to the Costa Cruises fleet and renamed Costa Europe. In April 2010 she left the Costa Cruises fleet on a ten year charter to join the Thomson Cruises fleet under her new name of Thomson Dream.
