Royal Caribbean Sends Three Ships to Alaska in 2021
Look out, Carnival Cruise Line. Royal Caribbean will have three ships in Alaska in 2021.
Royal Caribbean recently announced that it will send three ships to cruise Alaska in 2021. Following the same game plan that will happen in 2020, Ovation of the Seas, Radiance of the Seas and Serenade of the Seas will again visit the 49th state in 2021.
The two Radiance-class ships, Radiance and Serenade are perfectly designed for the Alaska. Built with the great outdoors in mind, both ships have an abundance of glass to provide spectacular views from almost every public area.
Ovation of the Seas belongs to Royal Caribbean’s Quantum-class of ships and features the North Star observation capsule with a 360-degree view from 300-feet above the sea.
