Royal Intel Tier Report
The 4,000-point tier has 883 sailings and sits at the point where the certificate starts to feel more flexible. The cabin mix is split between Balcony and Oceanview, with no GTY-heavy clutter at the top of the band. Free play averages $400 per sailing, up $100 per sailing from last month. The strongest sailing is Ovation of the Seas on a 7 Night Southbound Alaska & Hubbard Glacier cruise from Seward, with $400 FreePlay attached. Alaska is still the best region at this tier, but Caribbean and Mexico remain the bulk of the inventory. This is a good tier if you want a meaningful free-play bump and are comfortable staying in balcony or oceanview cabins. It is not the best suite-access tier, but it is a solid value step for players who want a cleaner offer than the lower bands.
