MS Astor was a cruise built in 1987 under the name by Howaldtswerke-Deutsche Werft (HDW) in Kiel for the Mauritius-based Marlan Corporation, although originally ordered by the South African Safmarine as a combined ocean liner/cruise ship for the Southampton-Cape Town service. In 1988, she was sold to the Soviet Union-based Black Sea Shipping Company and renamed Fedor Dostoevskiy, but spent her time under charter to various West German cruise lines. In 1995, she reverted to the name, Astor. From 1996 until 2020, she operated under charter to Transocean Tours. Astor was sold at auction by C.W. Kellock London Ltd. on 15 October 2020.
