Royal Caribbean
Royal Caribbean was founded in 1968 in Norway through a partnership of three Norwegian shipping companies, and the line has built its identity around progressively larger and more amenity-dense "megaships," including elaborate onboard features like surf simulators, ice rinks, and rock climbing walls. The company's Oasis-class ships, introduced starting in 2009, became among the largest passenger vessels ever built, capable of carrying more than 6,000 passengers and featuring distinct themed neighborhoods within a single ship, including an open-air Central Park area with live plants at sea. Royal Caribbean Group, the parent company, also owns Celebrity Cruises and other cruise brands, and Royal Caribbean specifically has consistently pursued a strategy of building the world's largest cruise ships, repeatedly claiming that title with new vessel launches over multiple decades. Royal Caribbean's combination of its Norwegian shipping company origins and its sustained strategy of building the world's largest, most amenity-dense cruise ships has made it one of the most commercially significant cruise lines in the industry.
VS
Carnival Cruise Line
Carnival Cruise Line was founded in 1972 by Ted Arison, an Israeli-American businessman, whose first ship, the Mardi Gras, famously ran aground on its maiden voyage from Miami, an inauspicious start to what became one of the most commercially significant cruise lines in the world. Carnival built its early brand identity around a deliberately festive, party-oriented cruise experience marketed toward a younger, budget-conscious demographic, distinguishing itself from the more traditional, formal cruise experience associated with older established lines at the time. Carnival Corporation, the publicly traded parent company that grew from the original Carnival Cruise Line, expanded through major acquisitions to become the largest cruise company in the world by revenue and passenger volume, eventually owning numerous other cruise brands including Princess Cruises and Holland America Line. Carnival's combination of its founder's rocky maiden-voyage start and its pioneering festive, accessible cruise marketing approach has made it one of the most commercially dominant cruise lines in the history of the industry.
