Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd. reported the entry into a material definitive agreement creating a direct financial obligation. The filing discloses a Fourth Supplemental Indenture and a form of 5.375% Senior Notes due 2036, indicating the company has documented terms for senior unsecured notes.

Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd. is offering $1,500,000,000 of 5.375% senior unsecured notes due January 15, 2036. Interest accrues from October 1, 2025 and is payable semi-annually beginning January 15, 2026. The notes are obligations of the parent only and are not guaranteed by subsidiaries, making them structurally subordinated to subsidiary liabilities. Estimated net proceeds are approximately $1,484 million, which the company intends to use to finance delivery of Celebrity Xcel and to redeem, refinance or repurchase existing indebtedness, including amounts under its Revolving Credit Facilities. On an as-adjusted basis after the offering, total debt would be approximately $20.5 billion as of June 30, 2025. The offering may not have an active trading market and contains customary redemption, change-of-control repurchase (101%), covenant and risk disclosures.
Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd. entered into an underwriting agreement to issue and sell $1,500,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 5.375% Senior Notes due 2036 in an underwritten public offering. The deal is led by BofA Securities, Goldman Sachs & Co. and Morgan Stanley & Co. as representatives of the underwriters and is being conducted under an effective SEC registration statement and prospectus supplement. The offering is expected to close on October 1, 2025, subject to customary closing conditions.
The company expects to use the net proceeds primarily to finance the upcoming delivery of the cruise ship Celebrity Xcel instead of drawing on its existing committed export credit agency facility. Any remaining net proceeds are expected to be used to redeem, refinance or otherwise repurchase existing debt, including outstanding amounts under its revolving credit facilities, adjusting the mix and cost of its overall borrowings.
Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd. filed a preliminary prospectus supplement on Form 424B5 for an offering of unsecured senior notes to finance the upcoming delivery of the cruise ship Celebrity Xcel and to redeem, refinance or repurchase existing indebtedness. The notes will be senior unsecured obligations of the Issuer only, will not be guaranteed by subsidiaries and will be structurally subordinated to subsidiary liabilities. Interest will accrue from 2025 and interest will be paid semi-annually; optional redemption, tax redemption and change-of-control repurchase provisions are included.
The company reports a combined fleet of 67 ships as of June 30, 2025, ship financing commitments of approximately $7.8 billion, and undrawn revolving credit commitments (each facility providing $3.175 billion) as of the same date. The prospectus notes no established public market for the new notes and states the company may seek listing on TISE. The offering documents caution investors to review the detailed risk factors, including the company’s substantial indebtedness, covenant restrictions, structural subordination, potential fraudulent-transfer exposure and cross-jurisdictional insolvency risks.
