Royal Caribbean previously declared that the Oasis Class vessel would "introduce a new era of cruising" as the "world's largest cruise ship,” the company said in a statement. The ocean liner's physical construction began in the Chantiers de l’Atlantique shipyard in St. Nazaire in October 2019.

“Royal Caribbean is known for its innovation and constantly pushing the boundaries of what’s possible, and an Oasis Class ship in China is proof of that,” Royal Caribbean CEO Michael Bayley said of the Wonder, which had been set to sail the Asia Pacific.

“Wonder of the Seas will redefine the ultimate vacation and be revolutionary in her own right, and she marks one of Royal Caribbean’s most exciting chapters to come.”
