Royal Caribbean <\/a>has officially announced Legend of the Seas <\/a>as the third ship to join its Icon Class fleet!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When will Legend of the Seas Debut?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Debuting in July 2026, Legend of the Seas<\/a> will be the first Icon ship to sail in Europe, offering 7-night Western Mediterranean <\/a>itineraries from Barcelona <\/a>interporting in Rome<\/a>. In November 2026, she will set sail on her maiden voyage to Fort Lauderdale, where she will offer 6-night Northern Caribbean <\/a>or 8-night Southern Caribbean sailings where she will then become the first Icon Class ship to sail the Southern Caribbean.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is the Icon Class?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

One Icon is revolutionary. Two Icons are visionary. Three Icons are legendary. This is the Icon Class triple threat, the best family holiday in the world on three record-smashing ships, Icon of the Seas<\/a>, Star of the Seas<\/a>, and Legend of the Seas<\/a>. From chasing the rush at Category 6, the largest waterpark at sea. To dangling feet-first and sky-high over the open ocean, conquering the Crown\u2019s Edge from 154 feet up. Bigger thrills. Bolder chill. Showstopping entertainment at every turn. World-class cuisine and endless options for every appetite. A holiday that goes beyond the hype on a fleet of ships that cannot be matched, memory maxing like only an Icon can.<\/p>\n\n\n
