Royal Intel Tier Report
The 25,000-point tier is the strongest overall tier in 2601C. It carries $2,000 FreePlay and 1,315 sailings, with grand suites dominating the cabin mix. That combination makes it the best blend of bonus, inventory, and premium-cabin access short of VIP. The top sailing is Spectrum of the Seas on an 8 Night Jeju, Kyoto, Niigata & Hakodate cruise from Shanghai, offered as a junior suite with $2,000 FreePlay. Alaska and the Mediterranean are also strong at the top of the tier, but Asia is the clearest standout region in the best-scoring options. This tier is flat versus last month, which is a good sign. It did not lose free play, and it did not lose meaningful inventory. If you can reach 25,000, this is the tier that gives the most back without moving into the 40,000-point VIP level.
