Royal Caribbean Begins Construction on 5th Oasis-Class Ship

The steel has been cut on the fifth Oasis-class ship for Royal Caribbean Cruise Line!  The steel cutting, marking the official start of construction, took place at the Chantiers de l’Atlantique shipyard in Saint-Nazaire, France.  The yet-to-be-named ship is expected to be delivered in 2021.

The revolutionary Oasis Class will soon have a new sister, as today Royal Caribbean International celebrated the steel cutting of a fifth Oasis Class ship, scheduled to be delivered in 2021. The steel cutting, marking the official start of construction, took place at the Chantiers de l’Atlantique shipyard in Saint-Nazaire, France.

The Oasis Class took the cruise industry by storm with the introduction of Oasis of the Seas a decade ago and again with the introduction of Symphony of the Seas in 2018. The fifth Oasis Class ship will combine the iconic seven-neighborhood concept that her sister ships feature with a bold and unexpected lineup of thrilling experiences, imaginative dining, unparalleled entertainment and the latest technology.

Oasis-class cruise ships are the world’s largest and typically carry more than 5,400 passengers.

Currently, Royal Caribbean operates the following Oasis-class ships:
