Royal Caribbean’s Star of the Seas Sets Sail to Boost Regional Tourism

Royal Caribbean’s newest Icon-class ship, the Star of the Seas, is scheduled to begin service, bringing a fresh wave of family-focused cruising to Port Canaveral and broader Caribbean routes.

The vessel features new attractions, dining options, and entertainment designed to appeal to multi-generational families.

Port Canaveral expects a significant tourism boost from this, benefiting local businesses and regional suppliers.

For Caribbean destinations, the new cruising hub could drastically increase footfall and encourage ancillary spending onshore.

This launch signals a continued confidence in Caribbean tourism growth, as cruise operators invest in immersive guest experiences.
