Seven of the most anticipated new cruise ships will be showcased in an online education series for Australasian travel agents.
The 2026 Ocean Debut Virtual Showcase will be hosted next month by Cruise Lines International Association (CLIA).
It will introduce the new fleet of ships due for launch this year, each offering new opportunities for cruise specialist travel agents and new choices for cruise guests.
Running from February 3 to February 6, the showcase will offer daily live online sessions presented by seven CLIA cruise lines.
Each will outline essential facts and features of their ships, including elements like dining options, entertainment, accommodation styles, public spaces, unique features and designs, and what type of experience guests can expect when they step on board.
The showcase is available exclusively to CLIA member travel agents, who can register online for each of the sessions via the CLIA Members Hub. New ships to be profiled include:
- Royal Caribbean – Legend of the Seas (pictured above)
- Emerald Cruises – Emerald Kaia
- Explora Journeys – EXPLORA III
- Norwegian Cruise Line – Norwegian Luna
- MSC Cruises – MSC World Asia
- Regent Seven Seas – Seven Seas Prestige
- Disney Cruise Line – Disney Adventure
Participants will earn CLIA points and have a chance to win prize packs by tuning in live, collecting a codeword and completing a quiz.
