Royal Intel Tier Report
The 1,500-point tier is a stable mid-lower tier with 783 sailings and a mostly Caribbean-led mix. Mexico remains the second-largest region, while Asia, Australia, Alaska, and Mediterranean all appear in smaller numbers. The average sailing length is 5.5 nights. The best sailing is Ovation of the Seas on a 7 Night Northbound Alaska & Hubbard Glacier Oceanview from Vancouver, paired with $50 FreePlay. Brilliance of the Seas also shows up with Greek Isles sailings in the Mediterranean, which gives the tier a better international spread than the lower bands. This tier is not a major value jump from 1,200, but it is broader and more usable. It is a reasonable place to look if you want a little more itinerary quality without moving into the larger free-play tiers.
