Royal Caribbean’s second Icon-class ship will be called Star of the Seas, and will start sailing in the summer of 2025. Currently under construction in Turku, Finland, the new ship and its features will be revealed later this year and into next.

“The idea of combining the best of every type of vacation into one ultimate adventure has created more excitement than ever anticipated, and Star of the Seas will be the next bold answer to the record-breaking consumer demand we’ve seen for nearly a year and counting with Icon of the Seas,” said Michael Bayley, president and CEO of Royal Caribbean International.
