Royal Caribbean orders seventh Oasis-class ship
A seventh Oasis-class ship will join the Royal Caribbean International fleet in 2028.
The cruise line has confirmed an order for the new ship with French shipbuilder Chantiers de l’Atlantique.
The new ship order comes ahead of the upcoming debut of Utopia of the Seas this summer.
“While we eagerly anticipate the debut of 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,” CEO Jason Liberty said.
The cruise line only recently launched the world’s largest cruiseliner, Icon of the Seas.
The Oasis class has been a mainstay of the Royal Caribbean big ship fleet since 2009 when Oasis of the Seas launched.
The cruise company is expected to finalize financing for the ship later this year.
“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 of Chantiers de l’Atlantique.
