Royal Caribbean has named retired U.S. Air Force Gen. Lori J. Robinson godmother of Legend of the Seas. Robinson, the first woman in U.S. history to lead a combatant command, previously headed U.S. Northern Command and NORAD during a 37-year Air Force career. She will take part in the ship’s naming celebration in Fort Lauderdale on Veterans Day, November 11, 2026.
Royal Caribbean President and CEO Michael Bayley said Robinson’s courage, determination and service made her a fitting choice for the role. The announcement comes as the newest Icon Class ship prepares for its U.S. arrival and Caribbean deployment from South Florida.
