Royal Caribbean International is to announce details about the 2018 – 2019 deployment for its fleet, which currently consists of 25 cruise ships, with an additional six new build cruise ships due to launch between 2018 and 2024.

The campaign will offer guests travelling on the cruise line’s two mid-sized ships, Azamara Journey and Azamara Quest longer stays in port, more overnight stays and new and improved shore excursions. Azamara Club Cruises has expanded its range of shore excursions from 500 to around 1,200. The cruise line’s signature ‘AzAmazing’ evenings will remain but new excursions have been added including ‘taste local’, ‘walk local’ and ‘eco local’.
