So excited! The color of the X on the ship is a little interesting though...

[LetsAllCruise]

Vert exciting! I can't wait to see what new spaces you announce.

Boarding it for my 55th birthday (April 2026)

Not crazy about the spelling of the name tbh but interested to see the new ship.

Oof that giant orange X on the smokestack feels like a sports team logo, not a sophisticated or refined feeling design at all.

How about deal with all the negative comments and bring back "All Inclusive Rates" with Indulge and Elevate! Very happy they are finally dealing with the main dining room downgrades but they have more to fix! If we wanted to sail on a Royal Caribbean ship we would book it in the past we choose Celebrity for a reason!

Please sound proof the OVC deck on 14, if your sleeping on deck 12 the noise is unbearable, with tables and chairs being dragged around 24/7

I think the name is good but makes me think they maybe gearing more towards families to compete in a different market. Like the Xtra large mega ships (which I do love).

The Edge series is a letdown. Don't forget who you are in trying to be some hipper line for a younger clientele. The Edge series are terrible at meet and mingle dance venues and need nice lounges like the Ensemble and Rendezvous, not just big, open "multipurpose" spaces like you have. They also need quiet time at the foyer and bring back the old Martini Bar charm and a place for people to have indoor and deck forward views of the ocean. Bring back quiet, small social areas and a card room and library. (maybe re-imagine for a new generation rather than flat out eliminate it) And fix the mess that happens in Eden because it is neither optimized for music ensembles nor shows. Hopefully, it's not just a carbon copy of the ones on the current ship. At least fix Eden. I don't hold out much hope for this class but really, the next class of ships need to be more Celebrity and less whatever you were trying for with the Edge class. And the infinite verandas aren't a hit for many cruisers.

Oi tudo bem eu queria ficar por
😊 Uma viagem de cruzeiro eu te pago r $ _😊? Tinha que me dar o navio

[Xipheas]

That is a horrid name. Absolutely terrible.

[michalvarga]

Yeah, the name sucks. What's next? Xtra? Xtreme? Xmas? It's all a bit too edge lord-y. Especially after Edge, Apex, Beyond, and Ascent. If they insist on having an X in the name, Max or Vertex would both be somewhat better.
