The company, the flagship line of Royal Caribbean Cruises, said the 169,000-gt Ovation of the Seas will head to the fast-growing market in the 2016-2017 cruise season after it completes its initial cruises in China.
The 4,180-berth newbuilding will join four of the line’s existing ships in Australia, where it will be the largest vessel.
Australia is a hot market for the cruise industry.
