Royal Caribbean’s Full Fleet Expected to Return by Spring 2022

Royal Caribbean International (RCI) recently released its plans to have its complete lineup of ships sailing by spring 2022.

The cruise line’s return to the water began with sailings across Alaska, Asia, the Bahamas, the Caribbean and Europe, and continued in the early fall with the first sailing out of New York to Perfect Day at CocoCay, RCI’s private island in the Bahamas. Sailings on the West Coast will follow, embarking from Los Angeles to Catalina Island, California and Mexico. Then in December, ships are expected to return to Australia and Barbados.

“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,” said Michael Bayley, president and CEO, Royal Caribbean International. “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.”
