Industry-Leading Amenities Royal Caribbean International is an industry leader in innovative, unexpected onboard activities and amenities, from fleetwide rock-climbing walls to state-of-the-art fitness centers and spas to dedicated Internet connections in guest staterooms. ACTIVITIES Fitness buffs won’t miss a workout thanks to the line’s fitness centers. The gym complexes appear on all ships and include aerobics studios, cardiovascular and weight-training equipment and dedicated free-weights areas. But that’s just the beginning. Here are some of the other active options cruisers will find on Royal Caribbean ships: • Rock-Climbing Walls – Royal Caribbean’s now-signature rock-climbing walls went fleetwide in 2003. Towering more than three stories high, the walls challenge both beginners and advanced climbers to reach new heights. • Miniature Golf Courses and Golf Simulators – Golf enthusiasts can practice their putting on miniature golf courses found on most ships, or drive it home on a virtual version of one of the world’s top championship courses in the golf simulators. • Sports Courts – Whether it’s a game of basketball, paddleball or volleyball, the sports courts give guests a chance for a little friendly competition. • Jogging Tracks – Circling the deck perimeters, the jogging tracks offer unparalleled views of the sea and sky while guests are working up a sweat. • In-line Skating Tracks – The line’s revolutionary Voyager-class ships feature outdoor, curvy courses to test guests’ skating prowess. • Center Ice at Studio B – Guests on Voyager- and Freedom-class ships can try out their triple toe loops on the only skating rinks at sea. • Bungee Trampolines – Royal Caribbean’s Enchantment of the Seas will give guests a birds eye view as they soar skyward on the ship’s new bungee trampolines. • FlowRider® – Guests can now “hang ten” a hundred miles out to sea with the first-ever shipboard surf park aboard Freedom of the Sea and Liberty of the Seas. The 32-foot-wide by 40foot-long FlowRider® surf simulator allows riders to surf or body board against a wave-like water flow of 34,000 gallons per minute. (more) 5 5
