Once the trials are complete, the final phase of construction on the vessel will begin at the Meyer Turku shipyard in Finland ahead of its inaugural sailing from Civitavecchia, Italy in July 2026. 

Legend of the Seas will sail seven-night Western Mediterranean voyages from Civitavecchia and Barcelona, before relocating in November for the winter Caribbean season.
