Royal Intel Tier Report
The 2,000 point tier is where balcony becomes the main story. There are 1,386 sailings, and Balcony GTY is the largest cabin bucket, followed closely by Interior GTY and Oceanview GTY. Caribbean leads the region mix, but Alaska becomes much more visible here, especially on Quantum of the Seas out of Seattle. The best cruise is Odyssey of the Seas, 11 Night Eastern Caribbean Cruise, Balcony GTY, departing Cape Liberty on 2027-01-03, with $150 FreePlay. This tier is a strong middle option if you want a real step up from the lower tiers without moving into suite pricing. It has enough volume to be useful and enough cabin spread to matter.
