Royal Caribbean has announced its 2026-2027 Australia schedule, which will see two ships sailing Down Under.
Joining Anthem of the Seas in Sydney, fan-favorite Quantum of the Seas will make her return to Brisbane in October 2026, packed with more short getaways and weekend departures than ever before. Between October 2026 and April 2027, the two ships will offer three to 11-night cruises to a variety of destinations in Australia, New Zealand, and the South Pacific. The season is now open for booking.
Quantum of the Seas from Brisbane
After introducing a new cruise experience to the Queensland market, Quantum of the Seas will make a comeback to Brisbane in October for its fourth year as the largest ship in the region. Travelers will have 28 cruises to choose from ranging from three to eight nights long. Voyages will explore destinations including Noumea, Mystery Island, Airlie Beach, and Cairns.
Quantum‘s 2026-2027 lineup will feature even more seven-night cruises departing over the weekend. These voyages offer the perfect chance for families and guests of all ages to celebrate any occasion and maximize their island time like never before, with longer seven and eight-night adventures to the South Pacific.
The highlight of the season is a 25-night bucket-list Pacific adventure from Los Angeles, giving adventurers the chance to travel to Australia across the Pacific Ocean. Along the way, passengers will be able to visit Catalina Island, Hawaii, and French Polynesia.

Anthem of the Seas from Sydney
Back for another summer, Anthem of the Seas will continue to sail from Sydney, offering 21 voyages ranging from three to 11 nights long. Passengers can explore southern coastlines with two four-night getaways to Hobart, or venture further to explore the South Pacific and New Zealand.
All-new nine-night New Zealand getaways will join the Royal Caribbean summer lineup, visiting ports including Wellington, Napier, Dunedin, and Milford Sound.
