It's official. The world’s largest cruise ship, Royal Caribbean's Icon of the Seas, pulled into its new home port in Miami on Wednesday morning. At nearly 1,200 feet long and weighing 250,800 gross tons, the 20-deck ship is the first in Royal Caribbean’s new Icon Class and has been making its way to Miami from Europe since December.
The Icon will be joined by two more ships in the coming years – one in 2025, Star of the Seas, and another in 2026. The ship, which took 900 days to build, is set to set sail from PortMiami on Jan. 27 and will be offering year-round alternating seven-night Eastern and Western Caribbean itineraries. And last December, soccer superstar Lionel Messi was named the official icon of Icon of the Seas when he welcomed the ship in an exclusive naming celebration in Miami.
