Royal Caribbean Reveals Name of Next Icon Class Ship

Royal Caribbean International announced the name of the cruise company’s next Icon Class ship, dubbed Star of the Seas.

Expected to debut during the summer of 2025, the vessel is currently under construction in Turku, Finland, and will feature a lineup of new experiences and Royal Caribbean favorites that will be announced in the coming weeks.

Once completed and delivered, Star of the Seas will become the cruise line’s third ship powered by liquefied natural gas (LNG), combining the cleanest-burning marine fuel available to date with a proven lineup of industry-leading environmental programs on board. 

“The idea of combining the best of every type of vacation into one ultimate adventure has created more excitement than ever anticipated, and Star of the Seas will be the next bold answer to the record-breaking consumer demand we’ve seen for nearly a year and counting with Icon of the Seas,” Royal Caribbean President and CEO Michael Bayley said.

Before Star of the Seas debuts for Royal Caribbean, Icon of the Seas will arrive on the cruise industry scene with six record-breaking waterslides, seven pools, the Surfside neighborhood, entertainment stages and over 40 ways to dine and drink.

Last month, Royal Caribbean unveiled details of Hideaway Beach, its first adults-only beach destination, which is situated on the northwest second of Perfect Day at CocoCay in The Bahamas – and set to open in January in conjunction with the debut of Icon of the Seas.
