From November 1 until December 15, 2012, you can buy Royal Incentive Rewards certificates, which can be redeemed for a future cruise of your choice. These certificates are essentially pre-paid cruise certificates that offer flexibility for the recipient to plan a trip at their convenience with the ability to upgrade or transfer their certificate, and no expiration date.

Once the recipient is ready to redeem their certificate and book a cruise, they simply call the Royal Incentive Rewards Desk, and the cruise line will handle the rest.

Certificates can be purchased from your travel agent or at https://www.royalcaribbeancertificates.com.

Royal Caribbean International is launching its new brand campaign ‘The Sea is Calling - Answer it with Royal Caribbean’ with a major travel trade exclusive. Blippar, the innovative smart phone technology, will allow agents to see the TV advert and other video content ahead of everyone else.

The new campaign also features a host of interactive games, state-of-the-art technologies, branded merchandise and lucrative incentives to get trade partners excited about the cruise line. The autumn campaign which starts 1 September 2012 also includes an exclusive 24 hour preview of the new TV advert for agents ahead of the TV launch on Saturday 8 September. This is the first of its kind for the travel trade and uses an innovative new technology that reinforces the cruise line’s history of staying one step ahead of the cruise industry.

The £2.5 million campaign featuring advertising across TV and radio, trade, national newspapers, cinema, magazines and online, celebrates the huge range of activities and experiences available within a Royal Caribbean International cruise holiday. Featuring upbeat music and dancers bringing to life the on-board facilities and service, the TV advert showcases the different pace – from sunbathing to surfing - that can be enjoyed on a Royal Caribbean International cruise.

In addition to free balcony upgrades from an oceanview stateroom, agents will also have the added option of offering extras to guests such as free car parking, coach transfer or free regional flights on selected UK departures.

The new advert, which is at the forefront of the new campaign, will be available to agents before it appears on TV via the free Blippar smartphone application that employs augmented reality technology to play multimedia content. The video content from Royal Caribbean International can be viewed when users point their smartphones at branded t-shirts, dedicated lenticular promotional mailing and travel trade press advertising.
