Leading the Way in Cruise Industry Innovation

Royal Caribbean is consistently recognized as one of the most innovative cruise lines in the world – and for good reason. Whether you’re a first-time cruiser wondering where to begin or an experienced traveler looking for your next extraordinary adventure, the sheer scale of what Royal Caribbean offers can feel overwhelming. That’s precisely where Extraordinary Adventures makes all the difference.

As certified Royal Caribbean specialists, we bring insider expertise, personal advocacy, and direct relationships with Royal Caribbean’s team to every voyage we plan. We help you navigate the many ship classes, itineraries, and stateroom options to find the sailing that fits your style – not a generic recommendation, but one crafted around your preferences. From the ultimate family cruise to an elevated Star Class suite experience, we ensure you get the most from every moment at sea.

No cruise line pushes the boundaries of what’s possible at sea quite like Royal Caribbean. Their ships aren’t just vessels – they’re floating destinations in their own right, packed with experiences that would be impressive on land, let alone hundreds of miles from shore. With the help of our certified Royal Caribbean cruise travel advisors, you can cut through the sheer volume of options and discover the perfect vessel and itinerary tailored to your travel style.

Royal Caribbean’s extraordinary fleet includes the record-breaking Icon Class ships – Icon of the Seas and the upcoming Star of the Seas (debuting in 2025) – representing the pinnacle of modern cruise design with neighborhood-style layouts, Category 6 (the largest waterpark at sea), and experiences that genuinely redefine what a vacation at sea can feel like. From RipCord by iFLY skydiving simulators and FlowRider surf simulators to rock climbing walls, bumper cars, and ice skating rinks, these aren’t gimmicks. They’re bold innovations that deliver something for every member of the family and every kind of adventurer.

They deploy different ship classes strategically – newer, larger ships often serve Caribbean routes from Florida home ports, while other vessels access stunning ports in regions like Alaska and the Mediterranean. Many Bahamas and Caribbean itineraries include stops at their private destinations, Perfect Day at CocoCay and Labadee. With so many options available, your Extraordinary Adventures advisor can match the right destination and ship to your preferences, ensuring every detail aligns with what you’re looking for.

Your cruise fare includes stateroom accommodation, all main dining room and buffet meals, room service, entertainment including Broadway-style shows, access to pools and water features, the fitness center, kids’ and teen programs, and many onboard activities. Specialty dining, beverage packages, shore excursions, spa services, and Wi-Fi are available at additional cost.

Royal Caribbean operates multiple ship classes to suit every preference and travel style. Icon Class (Icon and Star of the Seas) are the world’s largest ships with unprecedented amenities and neighborhood-style design. Oasis Class ships (including Utopia of the Seas, the newest in the class) feature distinct neighborhoods, Central Park, and signature attractions like the AquaTheater. Quantum Class offers high-tech experiences like the North Star observation capsule and RipCord by iFLY. Freedom, Voyager, and Radiance Class ships offer diverse options at different scales and price points. Each class delivers a distinct personality and set of experiences, so choosing the right one is key to getting the most from your voyage.

Perfect Day at CocoCay is Royal Caribbean’s private island destination in the Bahamas, completely transformed into the ultimate beach experience. Highlights include Thrill Waterpark with the tallest waterslide in North America, Oasis Lagoon (the largest freshwater pool in the Caribbean), Coco Beach Club’s stunning overwater cabanas, and a variety of beaches ranging from family-friendly to adults-only. Think of it as the ultimate shore day – every detail designed to deliver the same level of excitement and comfort you enjoy onboard, from thrilling waterslides to serene beachside cabana retreats. Many Bahamas and Caribbean itineraries include a stop here, and your Extraordinary Adventures advisor can help you select the sailings that feature this extraordinary destination.

Royal Caribbean’s dining program spans complimentary venues and specialty restaurants, with options expanding significantly on newer ship classes. Larger ships like Icon of the Seas offer upwards of 40 dining options. A dining package can be a smart way to sample multiple specialty restaurants at a bundled price – and your Extraordinary Adventures advisor can recommend whether a package makes sense based on your sailing length and dining preferences. Whether you’re drawn to fine steakhouse cuts, theatrical multi-story dining experiences, or a casual poolside bite, the variety ensures every meal feels like a fresh discovery.

Entertainment varies by ship class but includes full-scale Broadway productions like “Grease” and “Hairspray,” ice skating performances, AquaTheater aquatic shows on Oasis Class vessels, live music, comedy clubs, and game shows. Unique onboard attractions include RipCord by iFLY skydiving simulators, FlowRider surf simulators, rock climbing walls, zip lines, and Category 6 – the largest waterpark at sea aboard Icon Class ships. Each evening brings new possibilities for entertainment and discovery, making it easy to fill every night at sea with something memorable.

Royal Caribbean is exceptional for families, consistently voted “Best Cruise Line for Families” for multiple consecutive years. Adventure Ocean offers expertly supervised programs for kids ages 3 through 12, teens enjoy their own dedicated spaces and activities, and babies six months and older are welcome in the Royal Babies and Tots program. Attractions like water slides, FlowRider surf simulators, bumper cars, and expansive pool areas keep everyone entertained. Multi-generational families especially love the range of experiences available – there truly is something for every age group, and connecting stateroom configurations make it easy to stay close while giving everyone their own space.

Royal Caribbean maintains a relaxed, welcoming dress code. Casual resort wear is appropriate during the day. Evenings in the main dining room call for “Smart Casual” attire – nice jeans are perfectly acceptable – with occasional “Formal Nights” where suits, cocktail dresses, or similar attire is encouraged, though never strictly required. The Windjammer buffet and casual eateries welcome relaxed attire at all times. The atmosphere is spirited and fun, never stuffy.

For the best selection of staterooms and itineraries, we recommend booking 9-12 months in advance – particularly for peak seasons like summer Alaska sailings, holiday Caribbean voyages, and European summer itineraries. Star Class suites on popular ships like Icon of the Seas and Utopia of the Seas tend to sell out even earlier. That said, your Extraordinary Adventures advisor monitors availability and pricing continuously, so whether you’re planning well ahead or looking for a last-minute opportunity, we can help you find the right fit. Early booking also means first access to exclusive perks and onboard credits that may not be available closer to the sailing date.
