ZitatOn September 8, 2025, a significant step for the cruise industry was taken at the Finnish shipyard Meyer Turku: the keel laying of the fourth ship of the Icon Class. During the traditional ceremony, where a coin was placed under the first steel block to bring good fortune to the ship and its future crew, the start of the hull's construction was officially marked. This new cruise ship, being built for Royal Caribbean International, is part of a series of large vessels that are setting new standards in the industry.
