Royal Caribbean International has indicated that all of its ships would be operational by spring 2022. The next group of returning ships and itineraries will begin to safely set sail in September, with Oasis of the Seas’ first sailing from the New York area – a 7-night itinerary to the cruise line’s private island destination, Perfect Day at CocoCay, The Bahamas – spanning cruises from the Big Apple to the Down Under.
The cruise line’s continued comeback builds on its months of success in providing memorable and safe cruise vacations across Alaska, Asia, the Bahamas, the Caribbean, and Europe, and each ship now returning will cruise with the same health precautions that have protected the well-being of guests, crew, and destination communities to date. All cruises in the years 2021 and 2022 are currently available for booking.
Michael Bayley, president and CEO, Royal Caribbean International, said: “We are excited and appreciative to be able to say with confidence when all of our ships will return, especially for travelers looking ahead to plan their getaways. More than 110,000 guests have cruised with us since December, and they’ve done so safely while enjoying the memorable vacations they trust we’ll bring to life.
“It’s been incredible to see families come together again on board our ships sailing in the U.S., the Caribbean, Europe and Asia. And to know we’ll soon welcome more in a safe manner when our entire fleet is back by spring 2022 is wonderful.”
Royal Caribbean’s varied assortment of ships and itineraries offer a variety of lengths and destinations across the world, allowing vacationers and their families to pursue adventure once more.
