Royal Caribbean announced that the 2,435-passenger Rhapsody of the
Seas and 2,501-passenger Radiance of the Seas will return to Alaska
in 2014. The two ships will offer a combined 34 seven-night sailings
from either Seattle or Vancouver.
“Royal
Caribbean has been unfolding the wonders of the Alaskan frontier for
a quarter century and we continue to deliver this amazing destination
like no other cruise
line,”
said Lisa Bauer, executive vice president of Global Marketing and
Sales, Royal Caribbean International.
Vacationers
also can combine a Radiance
of the Seas or Rhapsody
of the Seas’ Alaska
cruise with one of four pre- or post-cruise land tours throughout the
Canadian Rockies and – new for 2014 – the Okanagan Wine Valley.
For a comprehensive Alaska and the Canadian Rockies adventure, the
Ultimate Cruisetour combines both region’s land tour programs with
a seven-night cruise aboard Radiance
of the Seas for
a 19-night grand adventure on land and sea.
Radiance
of the Seas Alaska sailings start May 9 while Rhapsody of the
Seas commence May 16.
