--- title: "Royal Caribbean" url: https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/royal-caribbean description: "It's Big Time" --- # Royal Caribbean > It's Big Time ## At a Glance - **Ships:** 31 - **Top Regions:** Caribbean, US East Coast, Bahamas - **Headquarters:** Miami, Florida - **Style:** Family, Adventure, Mega-ships - **Rating:** 7.8/5 ## About Royal Caribbean operates the largest cruise ships ever built, and that's not an exaggeration. Icon of the Seas and Wonder of the Seas are floating resorts with surf pools, zip lines, ice skating rinks, and full Broadway productions running every night. The target audience is families, and the ships deliver on that promise. Kids clubs are open all day, the waterparks are enormous, and there's enough variety to keep teenagers entertained (or at least not bored). Most Caribbean sailings depart from Miami, Fort Lauderdale, or Galveston, with seasonal schedules covering Alaska, the Mediterranean, and Asia-Pacific. ## Did You Know? - Icon of the Seas weighs in at 248,663 gross tons. That's roughly five times the tonnage of the Titanic. - Every Royal Caribbean ship runs a full Broadway show each night, produced by the same creative teams behind the actual Broadway versions. - The FlowRider surf simulator first appeared on Freedom of the Seas in 2006. It's been a standard feature on every new Royal Caribbean ship since. ## Fleet | Ship | Year | Passengers | Tonnage | Decks | Sailings | |------|------|------|------|------|------| | [Hero Of The Seas](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/royal-caribbean/hero-of-the-seas.md) | 2027 | 5,610 | 250,800 GT | 20 | 39 | | [Legend Of The Seas](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/royal-caribbean/legend-of-the-seas.md) | 2026 | 7,514 | 250,800 GT | 20 | 102 | | [Star Of The Seas](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/royal-caribbean/star-of-the-seas.md) | 2025 | 7,514 | 250,800 GT | 20 | 78 | | [Icon Of The Seas](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/royal-caribbean/icon-of-the-seas.md) | 2024 | 7,514 | 250,800 GT | 20 | 78 | | [Utopia Of The Seas](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/royal-caribbean/utopia-of-the-seas.md) | 2024 | 5,668 | 236,473 GT | 18 | 155 | | [Wonder Of The Seas](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/royal-caribbean/wonder-of-the-seas.md) | 2022 | 6,988 | 235,600 GT | 18 | 146 | | [Odyssey Of The Seas](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/royal-caribbean/odyssey-of-the-seas.md) | 2020 | 5,498 | 168,666 GT | 18 | 97 | | [Spectrum Of The Seas](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/royal-caribbean/spectrum-of-the-seas.md) | 2019 | 5,622 | 169,380 GT | 18 | 107 | | [Symphony Of The Seas](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/royal-caribbean/symphony-of-the-seas.md) | 2018 | 6,680 | 230,000 GT | 18 | 73 | | [Harmony Of The Seas](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/royal-caribbean/harmony-of-the-seas.md) | 2016 | 6,687 | 226,000 GT | 18 | 89 | | [Ovation Of The Seas](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/royal-caribbean/ovation-of-the-seas.md) | 2016 | 4,905 | 168,600 GT | 18 | 144 | | [Anthem of the Seas](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/royal-caribbean/anthem-of-the-seas.md) | 2015 | 4,180 | 168,666 GT | 18 | 89 | | [Quantum Of The Seas](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/royal-caribbean/quantum-of-the-seas.md) | 2014 | 4,908 | 168,600 GT | 18 | 86 | | [Allure Of The Seas](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/royal-caribbean/allure-of-the-seas.md) | 2010 | 5,400 | 225,282 GT | 18 | 80 | | [Oasis Of The Seas](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/royal-caribbean/oasis-of-the-seas.md) | 2009 | 6,780 | 226,000 GT | 18 | 116 | | [Independence Of The Seas](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/royal-caribbean/independence-of-the-seas.md) | 2008 | 4,560 | 154,407 GT | 18 | 77 | | [Liberty Of The Seas](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/royal-caribbean/liberty-of-the-seas.md) | 2007 | 4,960 | 154,407 GT | 18 | 140 | | [Freedom Of The Seas](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/royal-caribbean/freedom-of-the-seas.md) | 2006 | 3,634 | 160,000 GT | 18 | 113 | | [Jewel Of The Seas](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/royal-caribbean/jewel-of-the-seas.md) | 2004 | 2,702 | 90,090 GT | 12 | 155 | | [Mariner Of The Seas](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/royal-caribbean/mariner-of-the-seas.md) | 2003 | 4,000 | 138,000 GT | 15 | 96 | | [Serenade Of The Seas](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/royal-caribbean/serenade-of-the-seas.md) | 2003 | 2,476 | 90,090 GT | 12 | 110 | | [Brilliance Of The Seas](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/royal-caribbean/brilliance-of-the-seas.md) | 2002 | 2,112 | 90,090 GT | 12 | 93 | | [Navigator Of The Seas](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/royal-caribbean/navigator-of-the-seas.md) | 2002 | 4,000 | 140,000 GT | 15 | 110 | | [Adventure Of The Seas](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/royal-caribbean/adventure-of-the-seas.md) | 2001 | 3,114 | 137,276 GT | 15 | 92 | | [Radiance Of The Seas](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/royal-caribbean/radiance-of-the-seas.md) | 2001 | 2,466 | 90,090 GT | 12 | 103 | | [Explorer Of The Seas](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/royal-caribbean/explorer-of-the-seas.md) | 2000 | 3,114 | 138,000 GT | 15 | 105 | | [Voyager Of The Seas](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/royal-caribbean/voyager-of-the-seas.md) | 1999 | 4,269 | 138,000 GT | 15 | 97 | | [Vision Of The Seas](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/royal-caribbean/vision-of-the-seas.md) | 1998 | 2,514 | 78,340 GT | 11 | 72 | | [Enchantment Of The Seas](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/royal-caribbean/enchantment-of-the-seas.md) | 1997 | 2,284 | 82,910 GT | 12 | 87 | | [Rhapsody Of The Seas](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/royal-caribbean/rhapsody-of-the-seas.md) | 1997 | 2,416 | 78,500 GT | 11 | 116 | | [Grandeur Of The Seas](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/royal-caribbean/grandeur-of-the-seas.md) | 1996 | 1,950 | 73,817 GT | 12 | 113 | ## Browse - [All Cruise Lines](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines.md) - [Royal Caribbean Cruises](https://cruisello.com/cruises.md?ships=royal-caribbean)
