Royal Caribbean has reported its single largest booking day in its 53-year history after reservations opened for the line’s first Icon-class ship, Icon of the Seas.

It comes a week after the 7,600-passenger vessel was unveiled in Miami, the ship’s soon-to-be homeport, where it will sail a range of eastern and western Caribbean itineraries.

"The enthusiasm and excitement for Icon are undeniable in more ways than one," said Michael Bayley, president and chief executive of Royal Caribbean International.

"The incredible response we have received from our loyal guests, vacationers new to cruising, crew members and travel partners continues to come in, and this is just the beginning."
