When does Europe start showing up in April 2026?

Europe becomes practical at 1,200 points in 2604D. That is the first tier where the certificate shows a usable Mediterranean presence, even though the book is still dominated by Caribbean and Mexico.

What This Means

At 1,200 points, the top sailing list is still Alaska-heavy, but the region mix already includes Mediterranean inventory. By 3,000 points, Europe is no longer incidental: Mediterranean sailings expand, including 7 Night Greek Isles & Italy, 9 Night Italy, France & Croatia, and 7 Night Italy, Croatia & The Adriatic.

The practical threshold is 1,200 if you only need entry. The better planning tier is 3,000 if Europe is the target. Below 1,200, the release is too concentrated in North America and the Caribbean to treat Europe as a real option.

For players watching specific ports, Barcelona, Rome, Athens, and Venice all appear in the higher tiers, with the cleanest concentration around 3,000, 4,000, and 6,500 points.

Why It Matters

This page answers the simple question players ask first: how many points does it take before europe even shows up?

Once it does show up, one of the better-looking options at that same level is 2604D07 for 7 Night Southbound Alaska & Hubbard Glac Oceanview - GOBO - GTY Cruise Fare For 1 Guest.

That turns the page from a yes-or-no answer into something more useful: the first point level where the destination becomes a real bookable conversation.
