Royal Caribbean will send Explorer of the Seas to Australia for the 2015-2016 cruise season to compliment sister ship Voyager of the Seas.
Explorer of the Seas will replace Rhapsody of the Seas, which has been a fixture in Australia since 2007.
Explorer of the Seas, a Voyager class cruise ship, was previously announced to be going to Europe for April through September 2015 and will begin offering cruises in Australia starting in November 2015.
Royal Caribbean made the announcement in an email sent to members of its Crown & Anchor loyalty program.
Radiance of the Seas will also return to the region again for the 2015-16 season, the newsletter reveals.
For Rhapsody of the Seas, 2014/2015 will be its last season down under.
Royal Caribbean’s Australasian itineraries for 2015/16 will go on sale at the end of the month.
