Royal Caribbean International has revealed the name and planned itineraries of its third Icon Class ship, due to launch in summer 2026.
Legend of the Seas will provide “an unmatched combination of experiences” and sail year-round from Fort Lauderdale in Florida.
Prior to sailing from its homeport, it will offer seven-night Western Mediterranean cruises from Barcelona from July 2026.
The ship will then sail Caribbean cruises from November 2026 with six-night Western Caribbean and eight-night Southern Caribbean cruises, with visits to the private island of Perfect Day at CocoCay in The Bahamas.
Bookings will open soon on Royal Caribbean’s website with loyalty members able to get special access ahead of the official opening on February 20.
Michael Bayley, Royal Caribbean International president and chief executive officer, said: “On the heels of celebrating one year of the record-breaking Icon Class and the memories made by vacationers of all ages on Icon, we are thrilled to announce the name of Royal Caribbean’s third Icon Class vacation.
“Legend of the Seas is the next bold step in this exciting era of vacations and the continuation of the Icon Class legacy, and we look forward to bringing the revolutionary line-up of experiences to more families and adventurers across Europe, the Caribbean and beyond.”
