With the focus on so many new ships entering service over the last month, a pending major new order by Royal Caribbean slid in today with STX France with virtually no advance rumors. The company ordered an additional Oasis-class ship (the fifth) for Royal Caribbean and increased their order for Edge-class ships for Celebrity by two (for a total of four).
The Oasis-class ship will be delivered in the spring of 2021, and the Edge-class ships will be delivered in the fall of 2021 and the fall of 2022.
The complete story appeared in the May 25 edition of Cruise News Daily.
