The 12 Best New Cruise Ships Coming Out in 2025

star of the seas the best cuise ships in 2025 in to icon class

My absolute Favorite is Royal Caribbean. They have some of the best Ships ever built. Always being the Best, Biggest. And there service is spectacular. Along with there ports.

NCL i as Ok also my first line was NCL.

MSC World America because the sailings are a reasonable price for a new ship, unlike RCL & NCL. A lot of these ''new'' ships are just a copy of previous ships.

MSC because they haven't had their brains melted to an all-consuming degenerative greed disease on pricing…yet. Looking at you, Royal Caribbean, Disney, and Norwegian 😤

What a time to be into cruising!

Disney Adventure is not designed by DCL, but bought half finished after Dream Cruises went broke. It seems loyal DCL fans are quite unhappy with the design, but even if that gets popular DCL would probably have to work on their own megaships.

Wow what a line up for 2024 to 2026..

Thank you for putting in so much work to create this video! It is amazing! I am sure to be sharing it several times!

MSC World America is already booked and I can't wait to book disney advennture for 2026

I hope the Star Princess does not have all the start-up issues that the Sun Princess did and still has.

Ahh i love new cruise ships! Will never understand why most of these mentioned are going to the bahamas? Lol. At some point, more destinations will need to be added.

Great presentation Don B! Lots of ships to choose from.

We booked our cruise on the Norwegian Aqua out of Miami next year great video.

Seeing World America there, it would be good to see a comparison to how it differs from World Europa

We are booked on the MSC World America in Yacht Club and we are really excited about it!! I'm also excited that they are including the secret speakeasy that is also on on the World Europa ship. I hope I get picked :D

Great video,very informative! Thank you!

SUGGESTION: THE SHOPPING MALLS OF THE FUTURE NEED TO LEARN FROM THE CRUSE SHIP INDUSRY.

THANK YOU SO MUCH.

If this disgusting mega ship trend continues I will not be cruising anymore.
Sad, but bigger isn't better!

World America!!

These new ships are looking absolutely incredible!

I'm excited for how some of these brand new ships will learn from others already in their fleets. World America is going to be fascinating - there were a number of things that just didn't work on World Europa - let's see if they fix these onboard this new ship!

Awesome summary! Thank you.

I will cruise in Jan 2025 in the Resilient Lady from Virgin Voyages and in March 2025 in the NCL viva.

I’m just hoping that Celebrity’s next class of ship will incorporate some of the Solstice-class’ design features, like traditional balconies.

As a European based cruiser that generally travels with a multigenerational group, most of these ships aren’t really targeted at us. lol

The ship type that I’m most looking forward to hearing specifics on is Royal’s new Discovery-class. They’ve been hinting at it for months if not years at this point.

There’s a target audience for a smaller, mid-size ship with an emphasis on destinations, albeit with the typical vibe you expect from Royal Caribbean.

Went on a cruise with NCL. Didn't like it. The food wasn't good, service not good. The people that worked on the ship were not nice to cruisers. Crowne Grill is a really good restaurant. Not a bar person, a place to nosh yes. Problem with Disney, no casino.

Disney ships are not the type of ships I would enjoy.

NCL Aqua, MSC World America, Brilliant Lady!!!

Norwegian aqua sadly looks pretty ugly.

Good thing I booked the best new ships a year ago!

You're great man. I continue to live vicariously thru all of you guys...

I’m not into MSc. But shheesshhh that world America looks amazing

We are booked on the AQUA in May 2025

Sun Princess

More and more cruise ships, higher prices and less services and food quality, compared to 25 years. We know because we've done 95 cruises in those years and has seen a lot of goodies and services disappear. They lowered food quality to entice folks in speciality restaurants which many do not even come close to the main dining room food quality and services of 25 years ago.

Sun princess and it's soon November 20th

Booked world America inaugural.

I’ll be on the Icon in February!!
But I want to sail on them all!😅

Celebrity! Their Edge class ship transformed me into someone who might actually cruise again after visiting Alaska on the Edge a few months ago. I'm not really a cruiser, we just wanted to go see Alaska.

There was an earlier comment about having a target market for smaller mid-sized ships. That's me; I am that target market.

Disney 100% will not build a sister ship to the adventure. It was an already built ship that they redesigned to fit DCL (you can tell because it isn’t the prettiest ship). Plus the 4 new ships Disney ordered will be a little larger than the Triton class (around 160,000 gross tons)

I'll be damned, it'll be incredible to see a cruise ship with an amusement park.

Interesting great new inventions 😅
