Cruises from Cape Liberty: every ship sailing in 2026 and 2027

Royal Caribbean has a ship at Cape Liberty all year. Odyssey of the Seas sails 7-night Perfect Day Bahamas cruises on Sundays from November to April. From May to October, Oasis of the Seas takes over the Bahamas run, and Independence of the Seas sails shorter trips to Bermuda and Canada.

Sunday is the busiest day by far. Only one ship can berth at a time, so there's never more than one sailing a day. The port publishes no schedule, so these dates come from the cruise lines' announcements, checked against CruiseMapper.
