Royal Caribbean Enhances Family, Wellness, Wedding Programs
Published on: March 8, 2007

Royal Caribbean International’s newest ship, Liberty of the Seas, will debut in April with new and enhanced onboard offerings for the health-conscious, newlyweds and families. The additions include the new Vitality wellness program, Explorer Weddings, Adventure Ocean family programming and the Crown & Anchor Society Youth Loyalty Program. The new ship — which shares the title of the world’s largest cruise ship with sister ship Freedom of the Seas — will also feature the FlowRider surf simulator, a full-size boxing ring, H2O Zone water park and a rock-climbing wall.

The Vitality program offers a balanced regimen of food, fitness, spa and shore excursion offerings. Explorer Weddings is an alternative and adventurous extension of the line’s existing Royal Romance wedding and vow renewal program. Guests can tie the knot on an Alaskan glacier or in a hot-air balloon, while surfing on Liberty’s FlowRider or scuba diving. Enhancements to the Adventure Ocean program include the Adventure Theater by Camp Broadway, New York City’s famed children’s theater group. Teens can also attend Scratch DJ classes hosted by the Scratch DJ Academy. Meanwhile, younger children can attend Fisher-Price’s Chefs on Deck, or families can construct their own ship in Build & Grow with Lowe’s. Finally, Royal Caribbean launches the Crown & Anchor Society Youth Program, the line’s first youth loyalty program complete with frequent cruiser rewards. More details on Liberty of the Seas and the new programs will be revealed in the upcoming weeks on www.LibertyoftheSeasOnDemand.com.
