There are few better ways to see how much the cruise industry has changed than by comparing two ships that share the exact same name.
Royal Caribbean’s Legend of the Seas first entered service in 1995. More than three decades later, the cruise line has brought the name back for its newest Icon Class ship, which entered service in 2026. Despite sharing a name, these two ships could hardly be more different. The original Legend of the Seas was a relatively modest cruise ship by today’s standards, designed around traditional cruising and carrying just over 2,000 passengers at maximum capacity. The new Legend is a giant floating resort with thousands of passengers, enormous water attractions, multiple neighborhoods and more than 40 places to eat and drink. So, how different are they really?

Royal Caribbean has long been synonymous with ever-larger cruise ships pushing the limits of scale, innovation, and onboard spectacle. Yet in recent years, whispers have grown louder that the cruise line is developing something quite different — a class of smaller, more flexible ships, colloquially dubbed the Discovery Class (or “Project Discovery”).
While nothing is official yet, Royal Caribbean executives have dropped hints, leaks are surfacing on social media, and cruise fans are already speculating. Here’s a roundup of what we know (and don’t) about the rumoured Discovery Class. 
Although actually somewhat quieter than 2023, in the year of 2024, the cruise industry will welcome no less than 15 brand new exciting cruise ships, from the world's mainstream cruise operators.
We've saved you the trouble and picked our top five and we think there's something to suit everyone, from families and those young at heart, to the more traditional cruiser. Keep on reading to find out more!
