Newly Announced Exclusives On Symphony Of The Seas, The World’s Largest Cruise Ship!

Newly Announced Exclusives On Symphony Of The Seas, The World’s Largest Cruise Ship!

The official arrival of Symphony of the Seas, Royal Caribbean’s next ship, is fast approaching and the excitement for 2018 is seriously setting in.

We know it’ll knock Harmony of the Seas off the top spot for world’s largest cruise ship, and we know it’ll sail the seas as the ship that’s impossible to miss with its glow-in-the-dark decking.

And with news that Symphony could arrive earlier than the predicted date in April next year, details of the ship’s onboard features have been released!

“We set out to create a new level of vacation adventure and deliver the ultimate escape for families of all shapes and sizes. Symphony will introduce the most cutting-edge, customizable, and digitally-enhanced experiences in the Royal Caribbean fleet.”
