Brilliant Lady
Think more street dance, racy, interactive cabaret, edgy aerial performances and even a drag breakfast. If all this excitement leaves you needing some down time head for the Redemption Spa or just hang in your Virgin signature red sea terrace hammock. Now Scenic Eclipse II is set to continue this when she debuts in April 2023, sailing from Lisbon to Barcelona. As always, I am excited to bring you the latest information about the new ocean cruise ships on the books of the major shipbuilders for 2023. Gone are the days when a Pride Month advertisement and sparsely attended LGBTQ+ gathering were the norm.
The 9 most exciting new cruise ships of 2023
Highlights include another new Carnival cruise ship (with a roller coaster!); and multiple new ships from MSC Cruises, both in the mainstream and -- for the first time -- the luxury category. New cruise ships debut every year, but 2023 looks like a particularly exciting one. Take a look at the list of cruise ships launching in 2024 and 2025 to see what else you can expect.
MSC Euribia
While there is not much information on dining venues, Chops Grille, will be one of the restaurants available. Deck plans show an eatery called Pearl Cafe, along with Giovanni’s Italian Kitchen & Wine Bar. Izumi, RC’s Japanese specialty restaurant will be located in Central Park on Icon of the Seas, where you will be able to dine on a hibachi or get sushi. Galleria Euribia is one of the longest LED domes on the sea and this indoor promenade has both main and specialty restaurants along with numerous shops. The Euribia offers 5 unique pools, along with one of the biggest waterparks at sea. MSC also hopes to master the sea with their latest ship that features original works of art, and a hull that is also a visual delight.
Vista Will Be Oceania's First New Ship Since 2012
In all cases, the new ships that are on the way for 2023 are already available for booking — and are indeed booking up fast. The year will also bring the first new ship in nearly a decade from upscale line Oceania Cruises, to be called Vista, as well as the first of a new class of ship for luxury line Silversea Cruises, to be called Silver Nova. Cruise Radio prioritizes well-balanced cruise news coverage and accurate reporting, paired with ship reviews and tips.
Carnival Cruise Line Unveils Booking Tool Upgrades
Viking Neptune, the line’s eighth ocean ship, was just christened this month, and its ninth, Viking Saturn, is on the calendar for April. Virgin Voyages third ship, Resilient Lady, is scheduled to launch in May, initially from Athens, Greece, and farther expanding to Australia. The brand’s “adult by design” casual atmosphere is expected to continue in full force. In addition to a dedicated forward-facing observation lounge with a bar and a coffee corner, there will be a separate lecture room, as well as a library, a shop and a lobby.
The upcoming Norwegian Viva will be the sister ship to Norwegian Prima, and Norwegian Cruise Line has said that you can expect nearly identical experiences on both ships. This new cruise ship features an LNG power system that reduces its greenhouse gas emissions by up to 20%. Its advanced onboard wastewater treatment system ensures that no water leaves the ship without undergoing strict treatments that reduce pollution and harm to local ecosystems. Smart energy efforts have also been applied to the ship’s waste elimination, climate control and ventilation. If you’re considering traveling on a Viking ship for the first time, when Viking Saturn debuts, it’s worth noting that the cruise line is definitely a more refined one, with a thoroughly adult vibe.
Euribia will be introduced in Northern Europe, departing from Kiel, Germany, and heading to the Norwegian Fjords. Following Mardi Gras and Carnival Celebration, a third Excel-class ship will join Carnival Cruise Line — the historically named Carnival Jubilee. Currently under construction at the Meyer Werft shipyard in Papenburg, Germany, the LNG- (liquefied natural gas) powered vessel will homeport from Galveston, Texas, beginning in December. Like Mardi Gras and Carnival Celebration, Carnival Jubilee will measure 181,808 tons, putting it in a tie with the former ships for the position of biggest ship ever to sail for Carnival. The two earlier vessels in the series are a whopping 35% bigger than the next-biggest Carnival ships currently afloat, and they are also bigger than all but 11 other cruise vessels in the world.

More specifically, Icon of the Seas measures 1,198 feet long—nearly a quarter of a mile—and has a gross tonnage of 250,800. Brilliant Lady’s two inaugural sailings were cancelled, as was a roundtrip 5 night cruise from Miami on Christmas Eve and another round trip from San Juan on 30th December 2023. Adult-only Viking Saturn became the ninth ship to join the Viking Ocean Fleet, following hot on the aft of her sister ships Viking Mars and Viking Neptune which debuted in 2022. The luxurious Emerald Sakura features a variety of areas to dine and relax and an onboard wellness centre, complete with a spa, gym, and sauna for the ultimate indulgence, as well as three tenders and a Zodiac. The superyacht’s marina platform has been designed for easy access to snorkelling, paddle boarding and swimming – just some of the many activities included.
Originally, the Icon-class ships were expected to be bigger than Royal Caribbean’s Quantum-class ships, but smaller than its Oasis-class ships, with a gross tonnage of 200,000 and guest capacity of around 5,600. Silversea’s new cruise ship, Silver Nova, is the first of the cruise line’s Nova class and, as such, comes with a lot of “firsts” for the line in general. But as for the fun stuff, MSC Euribia will offer five pools, one of the largest waterparks at sea, the longest LED dome at sea in the promenade, 10 restaurants and 21 bars.

Inside Norwegian Viva, ocean view and balcony cabins also will be larger than has been typical for Norwegian ships in the past. The 140,600-gross ton ship carries 3,260 guests in double occupancy, and is operating alternating 7-night Eastern and Western Caribbean itineraries. Celebrity Ascent is the fourth vessel in the line’s Edge class, and features the popular Magic Carpet, a movable cantilevered deck that functions as a restaurant and bar. Solo travelers can sail in style on Oceania Cruises’ first two Allura Class vessels. The line’s officers and crew members put forward ideas for the ship’s design and new features include balcony cabins for single passengers. In addition to American Cruise Lines’ (ACL) new American Serenade riverboat, joining the fleet in 2023, the domestic brand will also welcome a pair of new coastal cruise ships.
From the uniquely designed hull of the ship, to the stunning artwork of the LED dome in the interior, every inch of this ship is a moving work of art. It also boasts one of the largest and most intricate waterparks of any ship at sea, making this one of the most exciting new ships in 2023. Debuting in August in the Mediterranean, the 3,219-passenger Norwegian Viva is the second in a newer class of upscale Norwegian Cruise Line ships geared toward cruisers who want a plethora of activities without huge crowds. The ship has a separate complex for suite guests, a multi-million-dollar art collection, and dining options that include a hip food hall with a solid international roster. The pandemic, however, slowed down ship launches to a mere trickle as cruise lines weathered the public health crisis storm.
The luxurious Emerald Sakura will feature a variety of areas to dine and relax and an on board wellness centre, complete with a spa, gym, and sauna for the ultimate indulgence, as well as three tenders and a Zodiac. The superyacht’s marina platform will be designed for easy access to snorkelling, paddle boarding and swimming – just some of the many activities included. MSC Cruises recently laid out the framework for its goal of achieving net-zero emissions by 2050. Not slowing down in the slightest, Viking has not one, but two, ocean ships for 2023.
