What This Means
The headline sailing is Ovation of the Seas on a 7 Night Northbound Alaska & Hubbard Glacier cruise, departing Vancouver on 2026-08-21 in a Grand Suite with $1,500 FreePlay. That is the kind of offer that explains why this tier wins: it combines a top cabin with a strong Alaska itinerary and a meaningful bonus.
The tier is not just one standout. Its cabin mix is heavily weighted to Grand Suite, with 1,036 Grand Suite sailings and 187 Junior Suite sailings. That gives players a real premium-cabin book rather than a scattered set of one-off outliers. Regionally, Caribbean still leads, but the tier also carries useful Mexico, Asia, Australia, Mediterranean, and Alaska coverage.
Compared with 15,000 points, 25,000 is where the book becomes more consistently premium. Compared with 40,000, it is easier to reach and still offers the same top-end Alaska benchmark. For players looking for the best combination of value and practicality, 25,000 is the tier to watch first this month.
