Royal Intel Tier Report
The 1,200-point tier has 437 sailings and is the first practical Europe unlock in 2606D. The key sailing is Explorer of the Seas on a 7 Night Greek Isles Cruise from Athens on 2026-07-07. Alaska is still strong here. Ovation of the Seas dominates the top of the tier with multiple Southbound Alaska & Hubbard Glacier sailings, including balcony and oceanview options. That makes 1,200 a better long-haul tier than 800 if you want more cabin choice. The cabin mix is still mostly interior and oceanview GOBO, but balcony inventory is more visible than at 800. Regionally, Caribbean leads, with Mexico next, but the tier’s best-value options are clearly in Alaska and Europe. This is the first tier where the book starts to feel flexible rather than narrow. If Europe matters, this is the threshold to watch.
