Over 30,000 new berths will enter service in the cruise industry in 2026, with 14 new ocean-going ships slated to start cruising.

The ships were built at a cost of over $10 billion; they range from the biggest of them all: the Legend of the Seas from Royal Caribbean International and Disney Adventure, to Antactica21’s new Magellan Discoverer, with capacity for just under 100 guests.

In addition are two new market entrants with Four Seasons and Orient Express.
