Legend of the Seas has completed her transatlantic crossing and arrives at Port Everglades in Fort Lauderdale on November 7, 2026, the ship's first ever visit to the United States. Her first Florida cruise departs on November 8, a three-night getaway calling at Perfect Day at CocoCay on November 9 before returning to Fort Lauderdale on November 11.
The official christening ceremony is scheduled for November 11, 2026, at Port Everglades. Retired U.S. Air Force Gen. Lori J. Robinson will serve as the ship's godmother at the naming event, before Legend begins Caribbean cruises to Aruba, Curacao and The Bahamas.
From Fort Lauderdale, Legend will offer six-night Western Caribbean getaways and eight-night Southern Caribbean vacations to Oranjestad, Aruba, and Willemstad, Curacao. The ship is Royal Caribbean's fourth vessel powered by liquefied natural gas, joining Utopia of the Seas, Icon of the Seas, and Star of the Seas. Legend features 28 dining options, making it Royal Caribbean's most restaurant-rich ship at sea.
