Royal Caribbean Creates Trans-Atlantic Cruise, Hotel Packages

Royal Caribbean International is offering four more trans-Atlantic voyages for 2014 packaged with a two- or three-night hotel stay. The Ocean Voyage packages include four-star hotel accommodations, most with breakfast included, and transfers and tours in London, Reykjavik, Barcelona or New Orleans.

In addition, vacationers who book a balcony- or suite-category stateroom on an Ocean Voyage cruise package also will receive complimentary Premium Beverage Packages for the first and second guests in the stateroom or suite.

The new Ocean Voyage packages include:

The 16-night “Windsor Castle and London” package that combines a 13-night crossing aboard Independence of the Seas, departing Fort Lauderdale on May 4. The three-night, post-cruise stay includes a West End Theater performance and a Windsor Castle tour with stops at St. Georges Chapel and Windsor Great Park.

The 19-night “Spanish, French and Italian Riviera” package combines a 13-night crossing from Fort Lauderdale on May 1 to Barcelona on Liberty of the Seas.

The “New Orleans and Barcelona Entertainment” combines a 16-night crossing with a pre- and/or post-cruise option. The cruise departs New Orleans on April 26 on Serenade of the Seas. Travelers can opt for a two-night, pre-cruise stay in New Orleans, which coincides with the Jazz & Heritage Festival; a two-night post-cruise stay in Barcelona; or both for a 20-night adventure.

The 18-night “London & Icelandic Escape” on Brilliance of the Seas departs April 30 from Tampa on a 14-night voyage to Harwich, England. The package includes a two-night stay in both London and in Reykjavik; ground and air transfers from London to Reykjavik; and sightseeing.
