Royal Caribbean Announces Return To South America, Showcasing Grand Cities, Glaciers, And Carnival Cruisetour Program Extends Guests' Vacation into Argentine Adventure MIAMI, May 15, 2008 - Dust off those tango shoes, and head to the South
American summer in winter 2009-10. Royal Caribbean International today
announced nine South America cruises, ranging from 11- to 15-night
itineraries, aboard
Radiance of the Seas for the ship's second consecutive
winter season in the region. As one
of the Royal Caribbean ships that offer the highest percentage of
oceanview staterooms,
Radiance features glass elevators in a
10-story glass atrium for spectacular vistas of the unfolding South
American coastline. Bookings for these cruises open today.
"South America is such a fascinating destination and we are pleased to bring
Radiance of the Seas back to the region," said Alice Norsworthy, senior vice president, Marketing, Royal Caribbean International. "On any of these
Radiancecruises, guests will have the opportunity to experience a wide variety
of South American cultures and celebrations during the region's prime
season. Guests also can extend their vacations with a Royal Caribbean
cruisetour to visit more inland attractions."
Four-night pre- or post-cruise cruisetour programs give guests
the opportunity to explore the metropolitan charms of Buenos Aires,
Argentina, and the awe-inspiring Iguazu Falls along the Argentina and
Brazil border. Cruisetour guests enjoy fully escorted itineraries,
which include deluxe hotel accommodations, air and ground transfers,
certain meals, and time for individual pursuits.
For the 2009-10 winter season, vacationers can choose among
six cruises which 'round the horn' of South America and journey through
the Straits of Magellan. These 12- to 14-night itineraries alternate
departures from Valparaiso, Chile, and Buenos Aires, featuring a cruise
through the glacier-filled Chilean fjordlands, and a call at Ushuaia,
Argentina, the southernmost city in the world. On three particular
sailings, guests enjoy an in-port overnight stay aboard
Radiance in Buenos Aires at the beginning or end of the cruise.
