What sets her apart
North Star, a glass observation capsule on a crane arm that lifts guests off the top deck and swings them out over the side of the ship, about ninety metres above the water.
Cabins on this ship
7 grades on this ship. What each costs depends on the sailing, so the prices are on the itineraries.
Studio Interior
Built for one and sold without the single supplement that normally makes a solo booking cost close to two fares. There are twenty of them, each with a virtual balcony rather than a window, at about ten square metres - genuinely small. They go early, and not one of them will take a second guest at any price.
Studio Ocean View Balcony
The same single-occupancy deal with daylight and a real balcony, which is unusual - ships that sell solo cabins usually sell them windowless. There are eight. It suits someone travelling alone who wants outdoor space and will not pay a double fare for it, and it is still small and still strictly one person.
Interior Stateroom with Virtual Balcony
An interior cabin with a floor-to-ceiling screen carrying a live feed from a camera on the bow or the side. It gives you the time of day and the weather without paying for glass, and it suits anyone who dislikes waking with no idea whether it is morning. It is a screen, not a view, and most people switch it off at night.
Ocean View
A sealed window, usually round, generally on a lower deck. The cheapest way to have real daylight and a horizon, which is worth more than it sounds if anyone in the party is prone to seasickness. There are only about a hundred and fifty on this ship against fourteen hundred balconies, so the choice of position is narrow.
Superior Ocean View Stateroom with Balcony
Royal Caribbean's full name for a standard balcony, and by a wide margin the most common cabin on board. Private outdoor space, and the upgrade most people are glad of on any sailing with sea days. Less compelling on an itinerary that puts you ashore every day, when you may use it twice.
Junior Suite
More floor area, a proper sitting area, a bath as well as a shower and a larger balcony. The thing to know is that it sits outside Royal Suite Class, so it buys the space and almost none of the privileges - no private restaurant, no suite lounge, no concierge. Judge it as a large balcony cabin, not as a suite.
Suite (Royal Suite Class)
Tiered as Sea, Sky and Star, and what separates them is access rather than floor area: a private restaurant, a suite lounge, a concierge, priority boarding and tendering, with Star adding a dedicated attendant. Sizes run from a one-bedroom Grand Suite to a two-storey loft. Suites carry a higher daily gratuity, which is easy to miss when comparing.
