Editorial Summary

The creator expresses his appreciation for Royal Caribbean while suggesting several improvements inspired by competing cruise lines. He first recommends that Royal Caribbean follow Norwegian Cruise Line by adding new venues to older ships to keep them modern. Regarding dining, he suggests adopting Carnival Cruise Line's model of offering more high quality complimentary food options. For cabin layouts, he points to Disney Cruise Line's split bathroom concept as a significant benefit for families. He also argues that Royal Caribbean should follow Celebrity Cruises by including gratuities directly in the cruise fare to remove ambiguity. In terms of destinations, he notes that Princess Cruises is the market leader in Alaska and suggests Royal Caribbean expand its itinerary variety there. Finally, he recommends that Royal Caribbean adopt MSC Cruises' practice of allowing late night visits to private islands to maximize guest enjoyment. The creator concludes by noting that while Royal Caribbean is a market leader, the industry frequently evolves through shared trends and innovations.
