Royal Intel Tier Report
The 15,000-point tier has 1,185 sailings and is fully cruise fare for 2 guests. Average free play is $70.6, which is not much higher than the lower premium tiers, so the value is driven more by itinerary quality than by cash return. The best sailing is Spectrum of the Seas on a 5-night Busan & Jeju cruise from Shanghai on 2026-06-28 with $1,000 free play. Australia also appears with Quantum of the Seas on South Pacific holiday sailings, and the tier reaches into Bermuda and Europe in small numbers. That gives it a broader long-haul profile than the mid tiers. This tier is useful if you want premium-region access and do not mind that the free play does not scale cleanly with the point requirement.
