Video: Symphony of the Seas Christened in Miami

Royal Caribbean International celebrated the homecoming of the world’s largest cruise ship with the naming ceremony of Symphony of the Seas, the 25th ship in the global cruise line’s fleet.

Symphony was named by actors Alexa and Carlos PenaVega at Royal Caribbean’s new cruise terminal in PortMiami on November 15.

Joining sister ship Allure of the Seas at the state-of-the-art Terminal A, Symphony will sail 7-night Eastern and Western Caribbean with featured visits to Perfect Day at CocoCay, The Bahamas.

The 170,000-square-foot Terminal A, nicknamed the Crown of Miami, is expected to deliver USD 500 million in revenue to Miami-Dade County. Additionally, Royal Caribbean expects to welcome at least 1.8 million guests at PortMiami, representing no less than 30 percent of the port’s projected traveler traffic.

The cruise line sails 25 of the world’s most innovative cruise ships to the most popular destinations in Bermuda and the Caribbean, Europe, Canada and New England, Alaska, South America, Asia, and Australia and New Zealand.
