Royal Caribbean International has announced the inaugural season of Allure of the Seas, sister ship to Oasis of the Seas.
Allure will operate 42 sailings to the Eastern and Western Caribbean on seven-night voyages every Sunday beginning December 12 2010.
The itineraries will run alongside Saturday departures on Oasis of the Seas.
Bookings for Allure of the Seas’ inaugural season will open on April 2, 2009 for Diamond and Diamond Plus level members of the Crown & Anchor Society and April 8 for all Crown & Anchor Society members.
General bookings will open on April 13.
Allure of the Seas will depart from her homeport of Port Everglades in Fort Lauderdale and alternate a seven-night Eastern and Western Caribbean itinerary.
Both itineraries will feature three days at sea for guests to enjoy onboard amenities found in the seven ‘neighborhoods’ that comprise an Oasis-class ship.
On the Eastern Caribbean itinerary, Allure of the Seas will call at St. Thomas (Charlotte Amalie), St. Maarten (Philipsburg), and Nassau, Bahamas.
For the Western Caribbean itinerary, the ship will call at Falmouth, Jamaica; Cozumel, Mexico; and Labadee, Royal Caribbean’s private beach paradise on the northern coast of Haiti.
Both ships span 16 decks and can accommodate 5,400 guests at double occupancy with 2,700 staterooms.
