Royal Caribbean is expanding its 2027-28 Australian summer lineup with its ships Ovation of the Seas, Voyager of the Seas, and Anthem of the Seas.
Ovation will make Brisbane home alongside Voyager, while Anthem returns to Sydney.
The three-ship lineup will deliver a combination of two- to 12-night holidays from October 2027 to April 2028, ranging from weekend getaways, tropical escapes exploring Australia, breathtaking New Zealand and the sun-soaked South Pacific.
“This season is a major milestone for our region with three bold ships,” Royal Caribbean vice president and managing director of Australia and New Zealand Gavin Smith said. “We’re thrilled to welcome more Royal Caribbean adventures Down Under, led by Aussie favourite Ovation of the Seas returning newly amplified and sailing from Queensland with even more ways to dine, unwind and make memories.”
