Royal Intel Tier Report
The 9,000-point tier is the strongest overall tier in release 2605A. It has 1,520 sailings, $750 free play, and a 5.6-night average. That combination gives it both depth and value. The best result is a 7-night Alaska Inside Passage sailing on Serenade of the Seas with a balcony and cruise fare for 2 guests. Alaska is the top region at the high end, but the tier still includes Caribbean, Mexico, Asia, Mediterranean, Australia, and Alaska in workable numbers. This is the tier where the certificate feels most balanced. It has enough inventory to shop, enough free play to matter, and enough cabin quality to justify the point cost. If you are looking for the best single tier to target, this is it.
