The Grand Hall will set the stage for cruisers as they first step onboard Disney Wish. It will feature a bronze statue of Cinderella, a grand staircase, a starry chandelier, and a bit of pixie dust. The ship’s inaugural season will take place in Northern Europe visiting popular ports in the Baltic region and Norwegian Fjords. She will then transition to North America offering a variety of cruises from New York, Galveston, Miami, and Port Canaveral. Norwegian Prima will set sail in August of next year, and she will certainly be one of the best new cruise ships for 2022.
Virgin Voyages Brilliant Lady
This 142,500 gross tons ship will be the “Industry’s Most Spacious New Cruise Ship” when she debuts. The 3,099-person capacity vessel, which boasts a 24-hour butler service and three-level race track, was just named the best new cruise ship of 2022 in the Ocean category, CNN Travel reports. This year marked the return of the annual awards ceremony, which took a hiatus during a tumultuous few years for the industry. In other cruise news, why settle for just one of the Maldives’ 1,192 Indian Ocean islands when you can cruise between some of its finest?

The cruise ship is also hoping to be ‘the most spacious ship at sea’ with the most outdoor deck space of any ship at sea. Prima will also have the largest suite variety of any Norwegian ship at sea. While much of Celebrity Beyond’s elements are familiar, there are many notable changes to several areas around this 3rd Edge-Class ship. Guests will appreciate the expanded Rooftop Garden, that now features cantilevered float pools. The all-new Moroccan inspired Sunset Bar with tiered seating and an aft location to really appreciate the views. The Retreat Sundeck, the exclusive resort-within-a-resort area for suite guests, has been expanded with two levels of luxurious bliss.

Royal Caribbean Utopia of the Seas
Staterooms feature modern appointments, and the rock-star suites are over the top. While there will be an emphasis on healthy cruising, with complimentary fitness classes, you’ll still be able to indulge at the over 20 included dining venues. Speaking of inclusions, how about free gratuities, Wi-Fi, filtered water and sodas. Holding just 298 passengers, Evrima will be a small, yacht-like vessel with an elegant, residential look (as you might expect for Ritz-Carlton).
This venue will feature an exclusive collection of world-class rock performances nightly. Of course, there is also the 270-degree surround-screen World Stage, elevating main theater entertainment to the next level. Debuting on Quantum Class ships, this largest and most revolutionary indoor space at sea yet is home to bumper cars, a sports court, XBox gaming, and more. Ripcord by iFLY is a 60-second hair-raising skydiving simulator that is free on port days. Finally, North Star is an observation capsule that rises 300 feet above sea level for extraordinary panoramic views.
For just $89 per day, you can live on a cruise ship and sail the world
Boutique river cruise line Uniworld is bringing its newest ship, Mekong Jewel, to its namesake waterway for 13-day voyages through Vietnam and Cambodia. The itineraries begin sailing in September 2022 with stops including Ho Chi Minh City and the villages of Tien Loi, Vinh Long, and Sa Dec in Vietnam, and Cambodia's Phnom Penh and the ancient temples of Angkor Wat. In the past few years, American Cruise Lines has revamped the expectation of what riverboats on U.S. rivers should look like by introducing a more modern style of ship. These ships do not have paddlewheels; instead, the 175-passenger vessels look more like a hotel on land with a four-story glass atrium in the center of the ship. ACL ships are known for having some of the largest cabins in river cruising, with most ranging from 250 to 650 square feet.
Viking Mars (Viking Cruises)
The line says aspects of the ship's design and onboard experience will be specifically tailored to appeal to passengers from North America, including 13 dining venues (six will be specialty restaurants) and 20 bars and lounges. The family market will continue to be the focus for MSC Cruises, with elaborate waterparks, a SportsPlex and rollerskating arena, and an 11-story drop dry slide. While no further details have been released, the ship will most likely feature similar amenities as her sister MSC World Europa, which include a new microbrewery, gin bar, healthy juice bar, coffee emporium, and teahouse. Brilliant Lady will be identical to her three sister ships -- Scarlet Lady, Valiant Lady and Resilient Lady - offering 86 percent balcony cabins and 78 suites called Rockstar Quarters. There will be more than 20 eateries onboard, ranging from steaks and seafood to vegetarian, a test kitchen, Mexican, and a Korean Barbeque, all of which are complimentary.
Disney Wish will feature an all-new theatrical experience in a Frozen-themed restaurant, complete with musical performances from Anna and Elsa. Cruisers will also love the worldly menu that’s inspired by the Marvel Cinematic Universe during the Avengers Quantum Encounter. This immersive, technological experience will take guests on an action-packed mission while taking also taking their taste buds on an adventure of their own. Virgin doesn’t need to grab for attention the way some of the older cruise lines do, as it’s still young enough to attract cruisers looking for a new experience without adding flashy “biggest at sea” features. The ship also will boast The Drop, a 10-story dry slide that the line says will provide more G-force than an accelerating F1 racecar.
After sailing some introductory sailings in March & April, Valiant Lady’s inaugural season will feature 7 night Mediterranean itineraries departing from Barcelona, Spain, followed by a 14 night transatlantic voyage to Miami. From Port Miami, Valiant Lady will sail 5-8 night Caribbean itineraries though April 2023, each with a stop at Virgin Voyages’ exclusive Beach Club at Bimini. Like the four earlier Oasis Class ships, it will be 18 decks high and nearly 1,200 feet long — the equivalent of more than three football fields.
This class of ships features an adult-only environment with plenty of places to dine and drink. Virgin's ships will continue to forgo the traditional main dining room and instead offer multiple restaurants and specialty dining options for cruisers to enjoy. After making a big splash with the debut of Mardi Gras, Carnival Cruise Line’s second Excel-class ship Carnival Celebration will keep the excitement going as one of the most-anticipated new cruise ships for 2022.
And the restaurants onboard serve elegant cuisine created in partnership with leading American chef Thomas Keller. The 140,000 gross ton Disney Wish is slightly larger than the last two Disney cruise ships (Disney Dream and Disney Fantasy). Inside the ship, you will find specialty restaurants, bars, lounges, shopping, a massive casino, Broadway shows, ice-skating, a handcrafted merry-go-round, and so much more. Many new ships are arriving months, and in some cases, years behind schedule as shipyard delays and the Covid-19 pandemic resulted in many new cruise ships being pushed back to 2022.
A new water feature combines cinema with water slides, and new tech-heavy indoor experiences allow for interactive family fun. Celebrity Beyond is the third ship in Celebrity’s Edge Series, building on all of the successful components that cruisers loved in past Edge ships, with even more to enjoy. Along with these amazing features, MSC World Europa will be the line’s first vessel to be powered by liquified natural gas. Carnival favorite food spots like BlueIguana Cantina, Guy’s Burger Joint, Guy’s Pig & Anchor Smokehouse|Brewhouse, SeaFood Shack and more are back, joined by venues launched on Mardi Gras like Shaq’s Big Chicken, Street Eats and Chibang. Carnival Celebration will not be an exact copy, as new venues and tweaked experiences have been promised.
Known for intimate sailings, cultural itineraries, and affable staff, Variety brings some Greek storge to every trip. Norwegian Prima still boasts some incredible amenities and entertainment options despite its smaller size. The ship features The Drop, a 10-story slide that the cruise line says provides more g-force than an accelerating F1 car. If that isn’t enough, the ship has a go-kart track that spans three decks, a first for any cruise ship. When it debuts in November, World Europa will be based in Doha, Qatar, for the FIFA World Cup, and then set out for seven-night voyages through the Middle East in December. Stops include Dubai, Abu Dhabi, the UAE island of Sir Bani Yas, and the Al Ahsa Oasis in Saudi Arabia.
As on Viking Octantis, passengers on Seabourn Venture will be able to explore the world under the water in polar regions as well as what's above the waterline. Disney Wish is just the first of three new "Triton Class" ships that Disney Cruise Line has on order for delivery over the next few years — an expansion that will nearly double its size when measured by passenger capacity. If it does (and we're sure hoping so), it'll be a notable event in the cruise world, marking the entry of one of the luxury hotel world's most famous brands into cruising. In another first for polar expedition cruise vessels, every cabin on the vessel has floor-to-ceiling glass walls that slide partially open from the top to create a balcony-like feel.
