MSC Cruises will be the title sponsor of the Portuguese, Belgian and Turkish Grands Prix in 2027, its second consecutive year in that role under a partnership with Formula 1 that runs through 2030.

Disney Cruise Line has added San Diego as a new departure port, offering West Coast itineraries with the Disney Wonder and the Disney Magic through spring 2028.

The cruise company has expanded its partnership with the Meyer Turku shipyard to deliver two additional Icon Class vessels by 2029 and 2030.

The 6,000-guest vessel will debut in 2028, operating alongside the Carnival Jubilee to strengthen the company’s year-round operations from Texas.

The new ship has started open-water testing in Turku, Finland, as Royal Caribbean prepares it for its European debut this summer.

Princess Cruises’ newest ship, Star Princess, has completed its first-ever transit of the Panama Canal, marking a milestone in the vessel’s inaugural season and reinforcing the line’s long relationship with the route.

A new Spectrum of the Seas lineup will give travelers more ways to explore Asia, with longer itineraries, new one-way routes, and seasonal sailings from Shanghai, Tokyo, and Hong Kong.

The new Voyager class ships are scheduled for delivery in late 2035, 2038, and 2039
