PORT CANAVERAL, Fla. — You might have boarded Royal Caribbean’s Icon of the Seas. You might've even slid down one of six waterslides aboard Star of the Seas.
But you have yet to board its new ship, Utopia of the Seas that’s set to make a splash out of Port Canaveral this summer.
Royal Caribbean announced the new ship Thursday as it enters its five days of testing, ending in sea trials at the Chantiers de l’Atlantique shipyard in Saint-Nazaire, France, according to the cruise line’s news release.
Utopia will be the first Oasis-class ship – among the likes of Wonder of the Seas, Symphony of the Seas and Allure of the Seas — offering 3- and 4-night vacations on the weekends, the release said.
Here’s a list of everything you can expect to see and experience aboard Utopia, per Royal Caribbean:
- Vacations to The Bahamas and Royal Caribbean’s game-changing private destination, Perfect Day at CocoCay
- Never-before-seen dining and drink options, including Royal Railway – a first-of-its-kind immersive train car restaurant – and the Caribbean-inspired tiki bar, Pesky Parrott
- More than 40 restaurants, bars and lounges
- Five swimming pools and three waterslides
- Two casinos for a Vegas-style vacay
- A FlowRider surf simulator, rock climbing wall, mini golf, an indoor ice arena
- The longest dry slide at sea
- Showstopping entertainment across air, ice, water and stage
- And more!
