With so many ships on RCCL how do I choose my next cruise?


So you have decided to take a cruise, now you need to decide on the ship and the ports that meet your needs.  Let's go through the process.

I am focusing on Royal Caribbean Cruise Line because I have been selling them for years and I feel they meet the needs of most of my clients and myself.

Usually a client will come to me with a ship in mind because they have either sailed on that ship or they have done their research.  So how many ships are we talking about?

Let's discuss the Classes of Ships, they are the Radiance Class, Voyager Class, Freedom Class, Sovereign Class, Vision Class, and Oasis Class, these are in no certain order.

The Radiance Class has four ships, Radiance, Brilliance, Serenade and Jewel.  They all have amazing views, open spaces, glass walls.  The viewing areas offer panoramic views of both land and sea.

The Voyager Class includes the Voyager, Explorer, Adventure, Navigator and Mariner.  They were the first to feature an ice rink with lessons and shows!  They feature climbing walls, mini golf, pubs and busy boulevards.

The Freedom Class includes the Freedom, Liberty and Independence.  You can surf on the Flow Rider, do some boxing or relax in a whirlpool.

The Sovereign Class includes the Monarch and Majesty.  These ships are great for the family traveling together from grandparents to grandchildren they will all be entertained.

The Vision Class includes the Legend, Splendour, Grandeur, Rhapsody, Enchantment and Vision.  These ships are popular for their swimming pools, solarium, casinos, and themed dining rooms and lounges.

The Oasis Class includes the Oasis, Allure, Harmony and the Symphony.  These ships are the world's largest passenger ships, they are designed around a neighborhood concept, with a park, a moving bar, zip line, aqua theater and beautiful suites.

I have to be honest until I started this research I had not heard of some of these ships, I would say they have a lot of ships!

Of course I pointed out just a highlight or two but it gives you an idea of what direction to start looking.  I have decided for my wants the Oasis Class is best for my husband and I, this might be a crazy reason but having enjoyed a suite on my last cruise I love the amenities such as the Suite Lounge and Coastal Kitchen.  So I have four ships to explore!  Have a great day!
