It measures 78,878 gross tons and 279 metres in length, and carries about 2,040 guests at double occupancy with a crew of about 772. The Vision class is the smallest class in Royal Caribbean's fleet. On board are a rock climbing wall, the Chef's Table dining experience, Park Café and the Viking Crown Lounge. It is due in Gibraltar on Thursday 29 April 2027, 08:00 to 18:00, during a 14-night crossing that leaves Miami on Monday 19 April 2027 and ends in Barcelona, ahead of a summer 2027 season of seven-night Eastern Mediterranean cruises from Athens (Piraeus) in Greece.
How busy will town be?
The upcoming visits listed on this page show the passengers expected on each call and any other ships in port the same day. Town is busiest when several ships are in at once or a large ship arrives at a weekend. A ship carrying a few hundred passengers makes little difference on its own.
