Royal Caribbean International will have 6 ships in Europe during the summer 2026 with the highlight being the introduction of "Legend of the Seas", Royal Caribbean's newest ship and the largest cruise ship to have ever sailed in the Mediterraean.

There will be 5 ships in the Mediterranean during the summer 2026, with Harmony of the Seas, Odyssey of the Seas, Brilliance of the Seas and Explorer of the Seas joining Legend of the Seas with embarkations from Barcelona, Rome, Athens, Ravenna and Trieste.  

The UK will see Liberty of the Seas arrive in May to sail itineraries out of Southampton through the summer before repositioning to Galveston, Texas for Caribbean itineraries in October 2026.
