Demand for cruises in North America is now 80pc of Royal Caribbean Group bookings.
Jason Liberty said: “North America continues to be extremely robust where approximately 80pc of this year’s guests are sourced. This is evident as the year-over-year growth in spend on experience is double that of spend on goods. Despite our ability to narrow the gap to land-based vacations in the last 12 months, cruising still remains an exceptional value proposition.This strength, in combination with the incredible perfect day at CocoCay, has resulted in strong yield growth for our Caribbean sailings. European bookings are outpacing last year’s levels at higher prices and Alaska has been performing particularly well with year-over-year yield growth.”
