Details revealed on Royal Railways, other new dining options aboard Utopia of the Seas

Royal Caribbean International has revealed new details on its train-themed restaurant aboard Utopia of the Seas, as well as other new dining options available aboard the final Oasis class ship Utopia of the Seas.

The new vessel is due for delivery in summer, 2024 and will offer short 3-night and 4-night weekday cruisesto The Bahamas, with each cruise visiting the cruise line’s private island destination, Perfect Day at CocoCay.

Utopia of the Seas will be the first Oasis-class ship powered by LNG, and will also be the sixth and final ship in the class as Royal Caribbean looks to build out its fleet of Icon-class cruise ships, which will be the largest ever built when completed.

Utopia of the Seas will be the only ship in the Oasis class to not hold the title as the world’s largest cruise ship, but at 236,000 gross tons, she’ll still be huge, with a capacity of 5,668 passengers at double occupancy split between 2,834 staterooms.

The ship will offer 21 dining options and 21 bars and lounges, along with five large pools, eight whirlpools, a 1,500 foot zipline, five live music venues, six places for dancing, four full production shows and two casinos with 371 slot machines and gaming tables between them.

Highlights of Utopia’s dining offerings include:

Royal Railway – Utopia Station: This new dining experience combines adventure, food and tech to travel – by train. The journey starts with pre-dinner drinks at the station platform where guests board the dining car for a culinary adventure, transporting them to any place and time, from America’s Wild West to remote destinations across the globe, all without leaving the ship.

The Spare Tire: Guests can refuel with quick bites to keep the party going at this new poolside food truck, serving pulled pork sandwiches, cheeseburger flatbread, daily rotating desserts and more.

Izumi and Izumi in the Park: Joining the Royal Caribbean staple in its new Central Park location is a pickup window that serves up sushi, Japanese-inspired street food and sweets. Next door is a reimagined Izumi restaurant, with a new omakase-inspired private dining experience paired with sake cocktails, more teppanyaki tables, al fresco dining and more.

In addition to these new dining experiences, the Utopia will also offer Royal Caribbean signature venues, including Giovanni’s Italian Kitchen & Wine Bar; The Mason Jar Southern Restaurant & Bar; Hooked Seafood; Chops Grille, and more.
