When does Europe start showing up in October 2026?

Europe is present earlier in the certificate, but 800 points is where it becomes practical. That is the first tier where the itinerary mix starts to include meaningful Europe options without forcing you into the higher suite tiers.

What This Means

The anchor sailing is Rhapsody of the Seas, 7 Night Greek Isles & Turkey Cruise, at 800 points. That is the clearest Europe unlock in the release. It is not a one-off either: Europe appears more consistently from 800 points upward, and the cabin mix begins to include balcony GTY alongside interior and oceanview options.

At 1,200 and 1,500 points, Europe is still present, but Asia and Australia are more prominent in the best-ranked sailings. By 3,000 points, Mediterranean becomes a real part of the tier mix, and by 9,000 points the Europe story is much stronger, with Mariner of the Seas showing up in Greece, Italy, and Croatia itineraries.

For most players, though, 800 points is the practical threshold. It is the first level where Europe is not just available, but actually competitive with the rest of the certificate.

Why It Matters

This page answers the simple question players ask first: how many points does it take before europe even shows up?

Once it does show up, one of the better-looking options at that same level is Anthem Of The Seas for 7n Southbound Alaska & Hubbard Glacier Balcony - GTY Cruise Fare For 1 Guest $50.

That turns the page from a yes-or-no answer into something more useful: the first point level where the destination becomes a real bookable conversation.
