Royal Caribbean has finally revealed new details about their upcoming Discovery of the Seas cruise ship — and it’s MUCH bigger than we expected.

As longtime fans of smaller adventure-focused ships like Serenade of the Seas, this news left us with a lot of mixed emotions. While sailing once again on Serenade — the very ship we called home for 9 unforgettable months during the Ultimate World Cruise — we take you on a mini-tour of our favorite spots onboard and talk honestly about what Royal Caribbean’s future direction could mean for cruisers like us.

Will there still be room for travelers who love:

✔ Longer cruises

✔ Exotic destinations

✔ Smaller ports

✔ Adventure-focused itineraries

✔ Relaxed ship experiences

Or is Royal Caribbean moving fully toward giant floating resorts like Icon, Oasis, and now Discovery Class?
