For travelers who appreciate taking an inclusive vacation with extra amenities factored upfront into the

"We conducted extensive research with experienced cruisers and travel partners to understand what
they find most valuable when purchasing a cruise and the results overwhelmingly pointed toward one
simple fare that included our top amenities," said Gus Antorcha, president of Holland America Line. "Our
past promotions that offered these perks have been extremely popular, so we created a premium

4. Royal Caribbean International
If you are going on a Royal Caribbean cruise, you might be wondering what aspects of the cruise
experience are included in the cruise fare that you paid. After all, there is a lot of components to any
cruise vacation and not all of it is included.
We think Royal Caribbean does include a lot of activities, food, entertainment and things to do in your
cruise fare. A cruise remains a really good vacation value, especially when you factor in meals and
entertainment.
Royal Caribbean cruise fares include most meals and snacks onboard your ship, and any private
destination you visit (such as Labadee or CocoCay). This means there will be ample opportunity to enjoy
breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks inbetween without additional cost.
The exact venues included with your cruise fare will depend on the ship you sail on, but here are some
common ones that pretty much every ship has;
Main dining room
Windjammer buffet
Grab and go spots for food, such as Cafe Promenade, Cafe Latte-tudes, Sorrento's, Boardwalk Dog House,
Park Cafe, etc.
Johnny Rockets (for breakfast on Oasis Class ships only)
