Royal Caribbean to Shake up Two Markets
Royal Caribbean released their deployment details for Europe and Alaska for the summer 2016 season, and they’ve done something interesting in both the Barcelona and Seattle markets.

Cruise News Daily Headlines for July 16, 2013
* Norwegian Orders Fourth Breakaway-Class Ship
Norwegian Cruise Line said this morning that they have ordered a second Breakaway Plus vessel, the line’s largest class of ship, from Meyer Werft.
The 163,000-ton vessel will carry approximately 4,200 passengers and will be delivered in spring of 2017.
