Castaing said: “We are very excited that Royal Caribbean has agreed to move forward with a fourth Oasis-class ship, demonstrating their confidence in STX France to construct the most superior cruise ships in the world.”

The third and fourth Oasis-class ships will feature a split superstructure design, 16 decks with 2,700 staterooms, an 82ft long zipline, a hand-crafted carousel, the Rising Tide elevating bar, the AquaTheater high-diving performance venue, and the Central Park with more than 12,000 live trees and plants.

Both ships will join Oasis and Allure of the Seas, and will be more energy efficient than the existing ones.

The third Oasis-class ship is as yet unnamed and will be delivered in spring 2016. The fourth vessel is planned for delivery in 2018.
