Royal Caribbean broke ground on the new PortMiami Terminal A, which will herald the arrival of what will be the largest cruise ship and the global cruise line’s newest addition, Symphony of the Seas.
The cruise ship debuts November 2018 with an exciting itinerary through the Caribbean, from Miami and St. Kitts & Nevis to St. Thomas and The Bahamas.
The 26th ship in the Royal Caribbean fleet, Symphony of the Seas will deliver April 2018 and spend its inaugural summer season exploring destinations throughout the Mediterranean, calling on ports in Barcelona and Palma de Mallorca, Spain; Provence, France; and Florence/Pisa , Rome and Naples, Italy. The world’s largest ship will arrive in Miami in November to begin seven-night Eastern and Western Caribbean itineraries.
The ship offers 28 more staterooms than its newest sister ship, Harmony of the Seas, and will boast groundbreaking innovations and experiences, such as Bionic Bar robot bartenders, Broadway-caliber entertainment and the iconic waterfront AquaTheater.
Symphony’s inaugural year of Europe and Caribbean itineraries is now available to book.
