More worldwide choices and even more deals with Royal Caribbean in 2013 – 2014

A newly refurbished European fleet and 25 new itineraries from Southampton are among the highlights of the new 2013-2014 Worldwide programme from Royal Caribbean International.

With nine ships in Europe for summer 2013 and new ports of call including Tunis (Tunisia), Thorshavn (Faroe Islands), Lerwick (Shetland, Scotland) along with the return of Panama Canal sailings, there’s plenty for both experienced and new cruisers.

Brilliance of the Seas will be one of three Royal Caribbean shipssailing out of UK ports in 2013

Says UK and Ireland general manager Jo Rzymowska: “The new worldwide brochure really underlines the amazing breadth of coverage that Royal Caribbean offers. Our ships operate in every corner of the globe and there are cruise options suitable for all tastes and budgets.”

To encourage early bookings, Royal Caribbean is also offering a saving of up to £500 per stateroom on a 2013 cruise if booked by 31 August. In addition, guests departing on an ex-UK ship will be offered free car parking or coach transfers on selected sailings and reduced regional airfares from just £99 per person to Southampton, London Heathrow and Gatwick with transfers to Southampton pier.

Royal Caribbean International has already confirmed its European line up for 2013 with more than 30 new itineraries to choose from, with seven of the nine Europe based ships having completed a multi-million dollar re-fit and re-design.

Independence of the Seas, Adventure of the Seas and Brilliance of the Seas sail from UK ports, while Liberty of the Seas and Serenade of the Seas will operate from Barcelona. Italian ports will play host to Navigator of the Seas, Splendour of the Seas and Legend of the Seas, which returns to Europe in 2013. Meanwhile, Vision of the Seas will be based in Copenhagen and Stockholm.
