"Royal Caribbean is one of the most innovative of all cruise companies in the world as they continue to elevate the art of holidaying at sea," says Annette Hynes, award winning sales consultant with Cruise Worldwide at Fahy Travel in Bridge Street. Having won a place on a ship visit on Wonder of the Seas in Florida, she will further her training on a seminar at sea on board Legend of the Seas this coming summer.
Legend of the Seas is the next generation Icon Class ship, continuing in Royal tradition of groundbreaking design, featuring multi-neighbourhood experiences and the largest waterparks ever seen at sea. It is one of the more poplar ships on sale this season.
Royal Caribbean is also expanding its own itineraries with its own stops, ensuring the highest possible standards. On December 23, 2025, the all-new Paradise Island Beach Club opened its doors in the Bahamas. This exclusive retreat features private pools, a lively swim-up bar, and custom dining experiences, offering the perfect blend of style and serenity.
October 2025 saw the introduction of Royal Railway – Legend Station aboard the Legend of the Seas. This interactive dining adventure uses cutting-edge technology to transport guests through historic landscapes — all while enjoying a gourmet meal.
Showtime adventures
The beloved story Charlie and the Chocolate Factory will join Royal Caribbean’s entertainment line-up aboard the Legend of the Seas, bringing sweet theatrical magic to guests and some ships are introducing attractions like the Pesky Parrot tiki bar, The Blaster aqua coaster, and glow-in-the-dark laser tag arenas.
Annette says that "looking to 2026 we can expect refined dining and beverage policies, enhanced experiences for solo travellers, and even faster connectivity — especially across Royal’s private destinations, including the new beach club. The future of cruising has never looked brighter — or more fun."
