Mark your calendars for 2026 as Royal Caribbean elevates adventure with the transformation of three beloved ships: Ovation of the Seas, Harmony of the Seas, and Liberty of the Seas. Following the success of the amplified Allure of the Seas, these "Royal Amplified" vacations will offer thrilling activities, gourmet dining, and vibrant nightlife while exploring Alaska, Europe, and the Caribbean.
Jay Schneider, chief product innovation officer with Royal Caribbean said in a statement: “Royal Caribbean continues to raise the bar on delivering the best of every vacation with revolutionary ships and top-rated exclusive destinations. The Royal Amplified program gives our guests the best of Royal Caribbean with new-to-class culinary options and experiences, entertainment and thrilling adventures, paired with the hospitality and service Royal Caribbean is known for. After seeing incredible success and guest satisfaction with the amplification of Allure of the Seas, we’re excited to bring three new amplifications to our fleet in 2026.”
Look forward to exciting changes on these ships:
OVATION OF THE SEAS
Ovation of the Seas is getting a complete refresh, including a revamped pool deck with private casitas and a new whirlpool. Foodies will love the expanded culinary offerings, from Tuscan delights at Giovanni’s Italian Kitchen to hibachi at Izumi Teppanyaki. For those looking for a good time, the Pesky Parrot tiki bar is making its Quantum Class debut, alongside the new Sound Cellar for dancing and an expanded Casino Royale. Plus, new Ultimate Family Suites and Panoramic Suites offer even more ways to stay.
After its amplification, Ovation will bring these elevated experiences to 7- to 13-night Alaskan adventures, including multi-night Cruise tour experiences.
HARMONY OF THE SEAS
Harmony of the Seas is gearing up for a Caribbean-inspired makeover! Look forward to a new Caribbean-inspired pool deck featuring the popular The Lime & Coconut bar and a refreshed adults-only Solarium. With over 20 dining venues, you'll have endless options, including Playmakers Sports Bar & Arcade, El Loco Fresh, and the new Samba Grill Brazilian Steakhouse. The ship will also feature an Ultimate Family Suite and the largest Casino Royale in Royal Caribbean’s fleet.
Harmony will kick off its amplified journey in Europe before heading to Port Canaveral, Florida, for 5- and 7-night Caribbean voyages. These itineraries will include stops at Royal Caribbean's top-rated Perfect Day at CocoCay in The Bahamas and offer access to the new Royal Beach Club Paradise Island, debuting December 2025.
LIBERTY OF THE SEAS
Families sailing on Liberty of the Seas are in for a treat with a completely reimagined pool deck featuring The Lime & Coconut and new casitas. Thrill-seekers will enjoy an all-new Royal Escape Room concept. Culinary additions include Izumi Teppanyaki and El Loco Fresh, along with a new-to-ship Starbucks. These new features join beloved returning favorites like The Perfect Storm waterslides and exciting entertainment.
Liberty will sail from Southampton in summer 2026, offering 7-night European adventures to destinations like the Norwegian fjords and Bruges, Belgium. In the winter season, it will head to Galveston, Texas, for Western Caribbean explorations, including the new Royal Beach Club Cozumel opening in 2026.
These upcoming amplifications are part of Royal Caribbean's commitment to delivering unparalleled vacation experiences. With more than seven million guests annually visiting over 300 destinations across 28 ships (and four more on order!), Royal Caribbean continues to innovate, with plans for new exclusive destinations like Perfect Day Mexico in fall 2027 and additional Royal Beach Clubs.
