This passenger vessel was built in 2000 by Kværner Masa-Yards Turku New Shipyard.
On September 14, 2012, Explorer of the Seas was moored in Bermuda when heavy winds pushed Norwegian Cruise Line's Norwegian Star at its stern. Neither ship suffered any significant damage.
In 2000-2017 she was owned by Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd.
