Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd. announced today that it has agreed with STX France to order a fourth Oasis-class ship for delivery in 2018.
Richard Fain, Royal Caribbean Chairman and CEO:
The Oasis Class was a revolution in maritime design when it was launched in 2009. Oasis of the Seas and Allure of the Seas continue to be in a class by themselves both in terms of guest satisfaction and financial returns. Today’s announcement is a reflection of their success. We are thrilled to announce the order of a fourth Oasis-class ship during the keel-laying milestone of the third. This announcement is also a testament to the men and women of STX France who have worked so hard and so cooperatively on Oasis III.
The order is subject to financial approval.
