Royal Intel Tier Report
The 1,500-point tier is a key breakpoint in 2603C. It has 561 sailings, average nights of 5.6, and a cabin mix led by Interior - GTY and Oceanview - GTY with Balcony now clearly in play. Average free play is $50. This is the first tier where Europe becomes practical, with Explorer of the Seas on a 7 Night Greece & Croatia Cruise from Rome (Civitavecchia). Alaska remains strong through Ovation of the Seas, and the tier also marks the first balcony two-guest threshold in the historical comparison. If you want a tier that starts to open the premium map, this is it.
