Royal Intel Tier Report
The 9000-point tier is a strong free-play band with 1,449 sailings and a clear Alaska lead. The best sailing is Serenade of the Seas on a 7 Night Alaska Inside Passage Cruise Balcony, departing Vancouver on 2026-07-26, with Cruise Fare For 2 Guests and $750 FreePlay. Caribbean still supplies the most sailings, but Alaska is the best-value region at the top. This tier is useful if you want a larger free-play step without jumping all the way to the upper premium bands. It is one of the more balanced points in the ladder.
