Royal Caribbean is returning to the Port of New Orleans after a three-year hiatus.

The cruise line has repositioned its Vision of the Seas cruise ship for the 2018-2019 winter season.

The 915-foot ship will sail seven-night itineraries to destinations across the Bahamas and the Yucatan Peninsula beginning Dec. 15, 2018.

Before moving to New Orleans, the ship will sail 16-night voyages through the Panama Canal from Miami to Los Angeles and then from Los Angeles to New Orleans.

Royal also announced that its Mariner of the Seas ship would be returning to the United States in 2018 to homeport in Miami.

Royal Caribbean recently made our list of the top all inclusive cruises and cruise options.
