Royal Caribbean set to Debut $100m ‘Allure of the Seas’ Transformation

Royal Caribbean is set to debut its “newly amplified” Allure of the Seas ship in Europe in April 2025, which has benefited from a $100m refurbishment.

“From the new Icon and Utopia of the Seas to more than $100m transformation of Allure of the Seas, we’ve upped the ante threefold on the different ways vacationers can get away and make memories with Royal Caribbean,” said Jay Schneider, Chief Product Innovation Officer, Royal Caribbean International.

“Allure will be reimagined with the best of Royal Caribbean and what travellers love. Between new favourites, like the Pesky Parrot tiki bar, and experiences that unlock core memories time and time again, from an incredible pool deck to an unmatched combination of thrills and ways to chill, Allure will have even more of everything that makes it a standout favourite.”

  • All-day Pool Days –Resort-stylepools are at the centre of the action on the reimagined Caribbean pool deck, alongside a wider variety of seating and shade across casitas, in-pool loungers, daybeds and more.
