Royal Caribbean International Cruise Line

Okay, say it with me:
Royal Caribbean International Cruise Line

Ahhh.

Royal. Caribbean. International. Cruise. Line. I don't know about you, but those words certainly conjure up images for me.

"Royal." Treat me like royalty.

"Caribbean." Please deposit me in the nearest paradise.

"International." Surround me with wonderful people from all different walks of life. Take me to places I've never seen.

"Cruise." Make it easy for me.

"Line." And please...get me there ASAP. I can't wait!

What makes Royal Caribbean International Cruise Line (RCCL) different?

How about rock climbing...on board.

How about surfing...on board.

How about learning to scuba dive...on board.

These folks even have their own version of a Frequent Flyer program! You'll become a Gold Member of Royal Caribbean's Crown and Anchor Society as soon as you've finished your first cruise. That means lots of special benefits as soon as you set sail on your second.

One clear goal of Crown and Anchor is to make you feel like part of the family...the Royal family!

Speaking of families...

Royal Caribbean International Cruise Line has five families of ships. Pick a cruise by choosing the "family" that sounds like the best fit for your family. They are:

• The Freedom Family (2 ships in the family)
• The Voyager Family (5 ships)
• The Radiance Family (4 ships)
• The Vision Family (6 ships)
• The Sovereign Family (3 ships)

Freedom features surfing, ice-skating, a boxing ring and a water park.

Voyager features rock climbing, miniature golf courses, ice skating and a unique "Boulevard style" layout of shopping and cafes.

Radiance features more open space, more balconies and more glass than on any other cruise ships. Glass walls, glass elevators...a sophisticated feel for grown ups to appreciate!

Vision features themed lounges and dining, an adults-only solarium, casinos and pools, and Royal Caribbean International Cruise Line's Adventure Ocean youth program.

Voyager features golf simulators, the rock walls, a British-themed pub, Ben and Jerry's Ice Creams and Seattle's Best Coffees.

Then there's the Empress of the Seas, a cruise ship without a family because Royal Caribbean has only one like it! It's a smaller ship - making for a more intimate cruising experience, while still featuring all the usual Royal Caribbean International Cruise line features and amenities.

A ton of selection

In addition to all the ships to choose from, RCCL features some 35 departure ports, all the expected destinations (and some of the unexpected), as well as a myriad of itineraries, departure dates and cruise lengths.

That means you can truly tailor a one of a kind cruise vacation that speaks to your needs and wants.

Will you be sharing the ship with actual royalty when you sail Royal Caribbean International Cruise Lines? Probably not. (And who would want to hang out with that kind of riff-raff anyway?)

No. Instead, you'll be feeling like royalty yourself. And isn't that so much better?
