The news is great if you want to have an adventure in the summer of 2025 on board a Royal Caribbean cruise ship. The preliminary announcement has started the reservations and those who are used to scheduling their vacations in advance have only to gain by starting their research, because I guarantee you, any new itinerary will make the good cabins be reserved from this year.
Let’s get started!
The destinations are as varied as they are interesting, where you will always discover exciting activities. Besides the popular departures from Rome (Civitavecchia), Italy or Southampton, England, or Barcelona, Spain, the ones from Athens, Greece and Ravenna, Italy are worth noting, which we are starting to get used to, these being introduced as substitutes for Haifa, Israel and Venice, Italy. It should be noted that the destination Israel does not appear in any itinerary, this is probably due to the current context and the conflict in the area. There are also the posh destinations that are appreciated and sought after by all tourists such as Sardinia/Italy, Nice (Villefranche)/France, Madeira/Portugal, Mykonos/Greece or the Canary Islands and Palma de Mallorca/Spain, but also the historical and cultural cities such as Florence (La Spezia), Ephesus (Kusadasi)/Turkey, Pompeii/Italy, Bruges (Zeebrugge)/Belgium, Paris (Le Havre)/France.
There will be 6 cruise ships deployed in Europe that will cover the demands of every tourist. The most common one that has been in the Mediterranean Sea in the past is Allure of the Seas, but the last time was during the pandemic when the restrictions were extreme and people could not enjoy themselves in large numbers. Moreover, for the same reason, the reconditioning of “Royal Amplified” was postponed and we can deduce that it will take place before the summer of 2025 in Cadiz (similar to Oasis of the Seas), so we will have a completely refurbished ship with all the facilities and modern technologies that make the experience more pleasant. I think it goes without saying that this is Royal Caribbean’s best-selling class.
Odyssey of the Seas also offers similar fun and adventure features but in a slightly lower class. It ranks second in the booking category, but also because it offers slightly lower prices. It is a picturesque image in the warm destinations of southern Europe, being in this part of the globe since 2021. It enjoys a real success in all categories of tourists because although it is very modern and with direct access to all venues, it also includes the traditional style of cruises offering a more comfortable and relaxed cruise experience with enough open deck space and intimate lounges.
Here are all the itineraries and destinations set for the summer of 2025 by Royal Caribbean:
- Allure of the Seas – From Barcelona & Rome (Civitavecchia)
