twangster Posted May 30, 2018 Report Share Posted May 30, 2018 I saw this posted in a FB group. Good FAQ section: http://www.royalcaribbeanincentives.com/general-cruise-faqs/ The site appears to be geared around event planning, such as hosting an event on a ship or even chartering the entire ship. Decent fleet guide with downloadable PDFs. : http://www.royalcaribbeanincentives.com/ships/ Have you ever wonder how much it costs to charter an entire ship? I have. Interesting. Anyone have $11M surplus cash to charter Oasis for a week? If so you and 6,000 of your closest friends can sail in style.

Matt Posted May 31, 2018 Report Share Posted May 31, 2018 These are ballpark numbers (as alluded to lower prices at the bottom), but I'm still surprised they post any of this. I kind of figured the chartering cost depended on a lot of considerations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twangster Posted May 31, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2018 I'm sure the costs vary and this is probably a little dated (limited mention of Symphony). It does provide some insight into the revenue model for each ship in a very loose way. Off peak they are willing to take an OA class out of the rotation for $6.5M-ish (plus gratuity). That wouldn't represent the revenue floor for a typical OA class ship in service but it gives you an idea of the numbers involved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WAAAYTOOO Posted May 31, 2018 Report Share Posted May 31, 2018 I wonder how much support (servers, etc) you get for this price or if this is solely for the cost of the ship and navigation crew. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
