Editorial Summary

Matt from Royal Caribbean Blog discusses several major updates regarding the cruise line, beginning with the arrival of the Wonder of the Seas in Fort Lauderdale. This fifth Oasis-class ship features eight distinct neighborhoods, including the new Suite Neighborhood, and offers various original entertainment productions such as the Aqua Theater show Intense and the ice skating performance 365 The Seasons of Ice. The creator details the ship's upcoming sailing schedule, which includes Caribbean itineraries followed by a move to Europe. Additionally, the video covers Royal Caribbean's decision to join the CDC's voluntary COVID-19 reporting program. By requiring at least 95 percent of passengers and crew to be fully vaccinated, the cruise line will make face masks optional in most indoor areas of the ship. Finally, the creator examines a recent trademark filing for Cruise Verse. The application describes downloadable virtual goods, non-fungible tokens, and the operation of a virtual cruise ship featuring digital cafes and excursions. While the exact nature of this project remains unclear, the creator notes it could represent a new type of digital experience for consumers or travel agents.
