New Oasis Class Ship for Royal Caribbean Coming in 2028
Royal Caribbean Group today announced that it had entered an agreement with Chantiers de l’Atlantique to order a new Oasis Class ship for Royal Caribbean International. The new ship is projected to enter service in 2028.
“While we eagerly anticipate the debut of Royal Caribbean’s Utopia of the Seas this summer, we’re already dreaming up her sister ship and the next installation in the brand’s extremely popular Oasis Class,” said Jason Liberty, president and CEO, Royal Caribbean Group. “Across our three brands, we are focused on continuously challenging ourselves to deliver the ultimate vacation experience.”
This will be the seventh Oasis Class ship for Royal Caribbean International. The Oasis Class debuted in 2009 with Oasis of the Seas, delivering memorable vacations to travelers of all ages in the years since.
“These are exciting times for Royal Caribbean, and we have an incredible partner in Chantiers de l’Atlantique to bring to life the lucky seventh Oasis Class vessel of what is a remarkable class of ships,” added Michael Bayley, president and CEO, Royal Caribbean International.
The Oasis Class of vessels has been a game changer for Royal Caribbean and the cruise industry as a whole. Oasis Class ships revolutionized cruising with new innovations from the debut of the neighborhood concept to the first-ever split superstructure design. This next, yet-to-be-named vessel from Royal Caribbean, is certain to continue with tradition with new signature experiences.
“This order signals Royal Caribbean Group’s continued confidence in our partnership that has delivered some of the most innovative ships at sea,” said Laurent Castaing, general manager, Chantiers de l’Atlantique. “We look forward to building upon this relationship as we help bring this ship to life.”
According to the announcement from Royal Caribbean Group, the order is contingent upon financing, which is expected to be completed later this year.
More details about the ship, its onboard spaces, and itineraries will be announced by Royal Caribbean International at a later date.
