The ship features 4 decks; part of the 95 cabins is located on the main deck, while additional cabins, a gift shop, and a restaurant are found on the middle deck.

The name derives from Norse mythology; Aegir is the giant god of the sea, personifying the power of the ocean. The Vikings were skilled sailors; they understood the beauty and danger of the sea, worshipping and fearing Aegir.
