There are new discounts on both booking a new cruise reservation as well as extras to tack onto your cruise. Some cruises are less than $200 per person, and there's a new Black Friday bundle too.

The Cruise Planner sale is packed with savings on drink packages, Wi-Fi, specialty dining and more.

While Royal Caribbean has many sales throughout the year, this is definitely one to stop and re-check prices to see if there's a deal out there for you.

Here's what Royal Caribbean's Black Friday offer looks like and what you can expect going forward. This post will be updated with new Black Friday offers as soon as they are revealed.

Introducing the All-in Package

All-in Package bundle

New for Black Friday 2025, the All-In Package includes the three most popular add-ons in one bundle.

It's only available during their Black Friday sale, and it includes:

  • Deluxe Beverage Package
  • Unlimited Dining Package
  • VOOM Surf & Stream 1 Device

I observed prices of $119.99 per person for it.

All-in Package

It's only available to guests of drinking age

If your cruise visits Nassau, Bahamas, there's even the All-in Package + Royal Beach Club Paradise Island Open Bar Day Pass. It also includes a day pass the Hideaway Beach at Perfect Day at CocoCay.

The cost for a Utopia of the Seas sailing in January is $494.97 for one person.

Sale on pre-cruise add-ons

There are potentially big savings on the extras you can buy for your cruise, and this is one of the top things a lot of cruisers look for in their Black Friday cruise shopping.

So far, I'm not seeing deep discounts applied, with the All-In Package being the notable change.  Keep in mind that there will likely be Black Friday offers through early December.

The terms and conditions say the current sale applies to purchases made November 7, 2025 - November 30, 2025 on Royal Caribbean's Cruise Planner or app and applies to select sailings departing November 10, 2025 - December 31, 2026.

Any of the prices offered during Black Friday are sure to be cheaper than if you waited to book them onboard the ship.  They might even be cheaper than any sales in the coming months.

Cruises as cheap as $179 per person

There's also a special Black Friday offer on a lot of cruises that come in pretty darn cheap.

Black Friday Mega Deals applies to new and individual bookings made November 7, 2025 – December 2, 2025, on the sailings listed under “Black Friday Mega Deals” under the Deals section of RoyalCaribbean.com and provides discounted pricing at the rates displayed.
