Royal Caribbean Cruises confirms three new ships
Royal Caribbean’s third Oasis ship, Harmony of the Seas
Royal Caribbean Cruises will take delivery of its fifth Oasis-class ship in 2021, it confirmed this week.
It will also double the size of Celebrity Cruises’ new Edge Class fleet with two new ships to be delivered in 20121 and 2022.
The first two Edge ships, which are smaller than its existing Solstice Class but larger than the Millennial ships, are scheduled to arrive in 2018 and 2020.
All three new ships will be built at the Saint-Nazaire shipyard which is responsible for the construction of Royal Caribbean’s fourth Oasis ship, due to launch next spring, and Celebrity’s first two Edge ships.
