Oh this is going to be an exciting show
and trust us when we say it it's going to be an exciting year too.
Let's take a look at five brand spanking
new cruise ships coming this year.
Ahoy there cruisers.
We're Grace and Frankie.. well....
Let's start off with cruise ship number one.
So number one.
I do not think we have ever been this excited about a cruise ship before.
Its' Virgin Voyages Scarlet Lady.
The first cruise ship from Sir Richard Branson himself
will hold 2,700 passengers.
She finally starts sailing this February.
They are mixing things up
with things like drag brunches, epic DJ parties and no nickel-and-diming.
All the food and basic non-alcoholic drinks
as well as gratuities and Wi-Fi are all completely included in the price.
And there's going to be more than 20 different eating venues
and no buffet.
Instead there's going to be quick eat venues
a little bit like food trucks
and across Scarlet Lady's sixteen decks
you're gonna find champagne bars, karaoke booths,
off Broadway shows, nightclubs and even a tattoo parlor.
She'll have no single use plastic onboard and has new engine technology to reduce emissions.
This seems to be a theme through all of the ships that we're going to be talking about.
Really thinking about the environment.
So moving on to number 2.
This is going to be Odyssey of the Seas by Royal Caribbean.
She'll be sailing from Miami from November 2020
and then she'll move to Europe in 2021.
She's a Quantum-class ship, just like Ovation of the Seas and Anthem of the Seas,
but she's going to have some brand-new features and changes.
She's technically a Quantum Plus-class ship.
Meaning she's a little bigger holding around 4,200 people.
So big ship guys isn't it
Yeah and on board you're gonna find a totally reimagined pool area.
With an island vibe and two resort style pools
and four whirlpools.
As well as the amazing North Star
which offers panoramic views 90 metres above sea level.
In this area you'll also find the Splash Away Bay.
Which is a colorful aquapark for the kids
and towards the front of the ship
you'll find two solariums.
One for families
and one is the adults only solarium at the very front of the ship.
So the new SeaPlex
will be the largest indoor activity space at sea.
Complete with bumper cars, glow-in-the-dark laser tag
plus an arcade with VR games and even rollerblading.
The Playmaker Sports Bar will now be located on the second level of the SeaPlex.
So that's a bit different isn't it!
It's a really cool area.
At the back of the ship you'll find a 40-foot climbing wall
as well as the FlowRider surf simulator, iFly by Rip Cord to the incredible skydiving simulator -
which is really terrifying -
and a brand new feature is the Sky Pad
which is a VR trampoline
as well as a clear glass walkway with views of the ocean below.
Sure that's going to be terrifying as well!
There'll be favorites on the ship too like an all-new Music Hall
and the 270 theater which features robotic screens,
projections and some really cool and crazy performances.
Dining wise Lime and Coconut will be on board
featuring two stories of drinks and pool views.
You'll also find El Loco Fresh
serving authentic Mexican grab-and-go food.
Do you like my Mexican accent?
I did and that's included in the price?
Yeah that's not an extra charge
and there's going to be brand new Giovanni's Table as well
which is the Italian onboard.
As well as favorites such as Chops Grill, Wonderland and Izumi.
The speciality restaurants.
So number three it's the Celebrity Apex.
Tt's the second Edge clash ship in line after Celebrity Edge
and if it's going to be anything like Celebrity bedge...
Beage?...
It's going to be anything like Celebrity Edge it's going to be absolutely beautiful.
She'll hold around 2,900 people
and debut in April in the UK.
Like Edge, she's going to feature infinite balconies
with remote control electric windows
and there's going to be a massive 29 different places to eat on board.
Including places like the Eden cafe, Le Grand Bistro and Le Petit Chef - The Little Chef.
This is an awesome experience with animated characters appearing on your table.
Sounds really cool doesn't it.
It does It's really awesome we got to have a peek at this on the edge
and it was honestly I was legitimately blown away.
Because we were lucky enough to get on in Malta.
Earlier last year and it really blew us away.
She is truly a beautiful ship.
So different to what we've seen before.
Everything even like the corridors are all sort of winding and gorgeous
and delicious
Oh a lovely ship.
I was so impressed.
Apex will again feature the bright orange magic carpet where on each level
you'll find a different experience as the venue transforms off the side of the ship.
So it goes up and down the side of the ship.
There's also the rooftop garden
with the ambient lighting, beautiful plants
and plenty of places to hang out, in the Sun, with a cocktail.
Oh it sounds amazing.
On the resort deck, this is the pool deck,
there's a pool area complete with champagne glass style whirlpools,
an adults-only solarium and inside you'll find the Eden.
It really is a space unlike anything we have ever seen before with a crazy entrance.
It's three levels of exxx -
it's three levels of sin-shoo-
it's three levels of century-
With three levels of sensory experiences fully increased in glass
and looking out to the ocean.
This is a wild space.
It has live performances during the night by creatures that come alive and stuff.
It's totally bonkers guys.
It sound pretty bonkers.
Love it!
Entertainment wise
there's plenty on offer including futuristic performances
in the theater including new twists on Shakespeare
as well as the club.
O Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo?
He's sat there...
Awww arn''t I nice!
So back to Shakespeare.
There's going to be a club which will feature dance parties
and DJ's on a night if Shakespeare isn't your thing.
Yeah so from Shakespeare, to....
Guys can you tell me where that quote comes from
"Sha-kes-peer"
"Sha-kes-peer in Love" What film does that come from?
"Sha-kes-peerrrrrrr" One of my favourite films.
The Grand Plaza will be at the heart of the ship.
It's a three-story venue surrounded by cafes bars and restaurants.
And Celebrity A-pox-
A-pox?
You wannna change the name of the ship
I think we have called the ship about 12 different names!
Celebrity A-pox.
So, Celebrity Apex will also become the first ship in the fleet to use
Shore Power when she launches.
So number four is the P&O Cruises Iona.
This brand-new ship will be launched in May and is the biggest ship in the P&O Cruises fleet.
She will hold around 5,200 passengers and will sail exclusively from the UK.
Oh so this one's for us, how lovely.
It's a real British experience onboard.
She really looks fantastic and will feature things like a 4 screen cinema
showing the latest blockbusters.
As well as classic movies.
The first gin distillery at sea.
As well as a three deck atrium and Sky Dome.
This is going to be a honeycomb glass solarium which is perfect for cooler climates.
It will also feature entertainment in there such as aerial performers on a night.
Sounds fantastic.
Got a stage and everything.
So it will totally change purpose from the day where it's a sunbathing area just to chill out
onto a night where it's a big entertainment venue.
and it's nice that it's inside because a typical British weather.
From the concept images and videos she really looks like she'll
be a stunning ship.
and you're not going to get hungry or bored as there is 15
restaurants to choose from and 13 different entertainment values....
values... Venues...
So dining wise there'll be options such as the gastro pub called at the Keel and Cow.
Who are you calling a cow?
Oh the pub. Sorry.
Quays pizza and favorites such as the Glasshouse which is delicious.

Entertainment will be found all over the ship.
Including live music and impromptu performances.
Popping in your shower.
Yeah could you imagine!
GET OUT!
WHAT ARE YOU DOING PLAYING A VIOLIN IN THE SHOWER.
Im sure it's gonna be a little bit more classier than that.
Yeah so during the evening
there's got to be more than ten bars and lounges to choose from.
So there's going to be so much to do in the day and on an evening
Sorry im just picturing you getting out the shower and there is someone there with a violin.
This ship will also be powered by more environmentally friendly liquefied natural gas or LNG.
Which is great.
So finally we have the Enchanted Princess.
Yes oh she's lovely.
We've got got to sail a Sky didn't we last year.
Oh my gosh guys she is an absolutely incredible ship.
Yeah and Enchanted Princess will be the fifth Royal Class-ship in the Princess fleet
and she'll feature most of the same things as the Sky Princess
so take a look at our Sky Tour as well to get a taster.
And how lucky are we she's going to debut and be christened in the UK in 2020.

I was really genuinely impressed with the ocean medallion technology.
It was really cool.
She will also have the most pools and whirlpools or hot tubs
That you will ever see on any other princess ship.
As well as fantastic original entertainment.
There is something around every corner
