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
Holland America Line
Holland America Line was founded in 1873 in the Netherlands, originally established to carry passengers and cargo between Rotterdam and New York, making it one of the oldest continuously operating cruise and passenger shipping companies in the world. The line historically played a significant role transporting European immigrants to the United States during the late 19th and early 20th centuries before transitioning primarily into leisure cruising as transatlantic passenger travel shifted to air transportation following World War II. Holland America has built its modern brand identity around a more traditional, elegant cruise experience emphasizing its historical maritime heritage, and the company became part of Carnival Corporation's cruise brand portfolio while maintaining a distinct, more understated positioning compared to Carnival's mass-market flagship brand. Holland America Line's combination of its more than 150-year history rooted in transatlantic immigrant passenger transport and its sustained emphasis on traditional maritime elegance has made it one of the most historically significant cruise lines in the industry.
