Royal Caribbean’s multi-million-dollar original production, spectacularly chronicles the evolution of humanity’s endless fascination with flying. We begin in the future at the launch of the world’s first aerospace cruiser, as we rocket our entire audience to MARS on its first ever commercial flight to the red planet. Flight then continues on a unique journey, backwards in time, from one major aerospace “first” to the next. The grand finale is a stunning dramatization of the biggest moment of all, the Wright Brothers’ first flight at Kitty Hawk!
Our time-traveling, dimension hopping hero, the Tempus, is on another amazing adventure! This time the mission is to catch the infamous jewel thief, “Black Max”. The story starts in London in 1977 and could end up anywhere.
Our talented skaters put their best blade forward in iSkate 2.0, a dazzling showcase of their very best moves set to their own favorite tunes. The ice cast have gone rogue and anything can happen!

Royal Caribbean App
What can I use the Royal Caribbean App for onboard? Make the most of your time onboard by planning your cruise in the Royal Caribbean App. No need to wait in line – book dining, shows, and shore excursions via the App! You can also browse your Cruise Compass, Ship Map, Perfect Day at CocoCay Map, view restaurant & bar menus, review onboard purchases, and more! The app is free to download and use and is available in both the Apple App Store and the Google Play Store.

Onboard Expense Account
How do I setup a Royal Caribbean SeaPass or Onboard Expense Account?
If you haven’t already set up an account during Online Check-In or during boarding in the cruise terminal, stop by our Guest Services Desk on Deck 5. Onboard Expense Accounts can be set up with a credit card, a debit card, or cash.
Important Information:
How do I pay for things onboard?
Our ships utilize a cashless system. Once your Onboard Expense Account has been set up, simply present your SeaPass Card any time you’d like to make a purchase.
Can I change my form of payment after I’ve set up my account?
To update the form of payment on your Onboard Expense Account, please visit our Guest Services Desk on Deck 5. Please note, prior holds will remain on the original card until final charges are submitted at the end of the cruise.
Can I add additional guests to my Onboard Expense Account?
Yes, additional guests from your stateroom or another stateroom may be added as authorized users on your account. Please visit our Guest Services Desk to do this.
How can I track my onboard spending?
All charges can be viewed in the Royal Caribbean App or on your Stateroom TV. Printed receipts will be provided for each onboard purchase, and a statement will be delivered the night prior to debark (the final morning of your cruise). A final statement will be e-mailed to you within 24 hours of departing the ship on the last day of your cruise.
How do I settle my onboard charges?
If you set up your account with a credit or debit card, we’ll automatically post the final charge to your card on file. Guests on a cash account will need to settle their account at Guest Services prior to disembarking the ship.
I have Onboard Credits (OBC). How can I use them?
Available onboard credit amounts can be viewed on your account beginning on Day 2 of your sailing via the Royal App or on your stateroom TV. On the last day of your cruise, all onboard credits will be applied to your outstanding account balance before additional payment methods are charged. If your OBC is refundable (not associated to a promotion), any remaining unused balance will be refunded to your card on file. If your OBC is promotional, the value is “use it or lose it” and any remaining amounts will be forfeit at the end of the cruise.
Can limits be placed by parents or guardians on arcade spending?
While our system automatically sets a $50 per person per day limit, this can be increased/decreased to any preferred amount. Just ask your friendly Arcade Attendant to adjust it. Please note, this is a daily limit. A cruise limit cannot be set.
Dining
How can I make specialty restaurant reservations?
Specialty Dining reservations can be made through the Royal Caribbean App. You may also call 7000 on your stateroom phone and select the restaurant you wish to dine in or visit our specialty booth on Deck 5 next to Sorrentos.
How can I update my dinner seating?
Please visit the Maitre’D outside the Main Dining Room to make changes to your seating.
Is Room Service available?
Yes! Continental breakfast is complimentary. Both the All-Day Menu and American Breakfast will have a delivery fee of $7.95 plus an 18% gratuity for each order. To view the menu, visit the Royal App or browse on the TV in your stateroom. When you’re ready to order, dial 7000 from your stateroom phone.

Where can I purchase a beverage package?
Beverage packages can be purchased or upgraded at any bar on the ship. Please note, an 18% gratuity is automatically added to all beverage package purchases.
I pre-purchased a beverage package. Where can I get my soda cup?
Soda cups can be collected at any bar onboard the ship. You can also visit our stand on Deck 5 mid ship (only on boarding day) to receive your soda cup by showing your SeaPass card.

What do I do if I get an error message when trying to book a show?
This means the show is fully booked. However, all shows have standby seating available. If you’re unable to complete a reservation, please arrive to the show’s venue 15 minutes prior to showtime. It’s possible that you can be accommodated based on availability from guests who don’t arrive for their reservations. Please note, standby seating is first-come, first-served.

Gratuities
How much are gratuities?
If not already pre-paid in advance, a $16 USD gratuity ($18.50USD for Suite guests) is added to each guest’s SeaPass account daily to help recognize superior service from crew during your adventure. This gratuity is shared amongst dining & culinary services staff, stateroom attendants & other hotel services teams working behind the scenes as a way to reward our crew members for their outstanding service.
In addition to daily gratuities, an 18% gratuity is automatically added to all beverage, mini bar items, specialty dining, and spa & salon purchases.

Medications, flight tickets, passport/proof of citizenship, and any valuables should be kept with you. A video overview of the disembarkation process will be shown on your stateroom television.
2. On departure morning, enjoy breakfast or relax in your designated departure lounge until your number is called.
3. Proceed to the gangway with your SeaPass card to depart and then head to the baggage claim area corresponding with your luggage tag number. After the immigration and custom checks, proceed to the transportation area.
What time do I have to depart a Royal Caribbean cruise ship?

Royal Caribbean’s multi-million-dollar original production, spectacularly chronicles the evolution of humanity’s endless fascination with flying. We begin in the future at the launch of the world’s first aerospace cruiser, as we rocket our entire audience to MARS on its first ever commercial flight to the red planet. Flight then continues on a unique journey, backwards in time, from one major aerospace “first” to the next. The grand finale is a stunning dramatization of the biggest moment of all, the Wright Brothers’ first flight at Kitty Hawk!
Our time-traveling, dimension hopping hero, the Tempus, is on another amazing adventure! This time the mission is to catch the infamous jewel thief, “Black Max”. The story starts in London in 1977 and could end up anywhere.
Our talented skaters put their best blade forward in iSkate 2.0, a dazzling showcase of their very best moves set to their own favorite tunes. The ice cast have gone rogue and anything can happen!
Just when you thought you’d seen it all, Royal Caribbean brings you HiRO. With even more amazing high-flying feats and unexpected stunts, we bring together some of the world’s best extreme-sport athletes. HiRO redefines the limits of a theatrical production on the high seas. This mind-blowing show combines cutting edge technology, future forward choreography and highly innovative physicality in a never-before-seen way. It’s exciting, jaw-dropping and unpredictable, with no two shows ever being exactly the same. Get ready, because anything can happen!
Big hair, big dreams and all the right moves and you’ve got one of the biggest Broadway hits of our time - Hairspray.

Hairspray is back, and you can’t stop the beat!

Royal Caribbean’s multi-million-dollar original production, spectacularly chronicles the evolution of humanity’s endless fascination with flying. We begin in the future at the launch of the world’s first aerospace cruiser, as we rocket our entire audience to MARS on its first ever commercial flight to the red planet. Flight then continues on a unique journey, backwards in time, from one major aerospace “first” to the next. The grand finale is a stunning dramatization of the biggest moment of all, the Wright Brothers’ first flight at Kitty Hawk!
Our time-traveling, dimension hopping hero, the Tempus, is on another amazing adventure! This time the mission is to catch the infamous jewel thief, “Black Max”. The story starts in London in 1977 and could end up anywhere.
Our talented skaters put their best blade forward in iSkate 2.0, a dazzling showcase of their very best moves set to their own favorite tunes. The ice cast have gone rogue and anything can happen!

You can also browse your Cruise Compass, Ship Map, Perfect Day at CocoCay Map, view restaurant & bar menus, review onboard purchases, and more!

Onboard Expense Account
How do I setup a Royal Caribbean SeaPass or Onboard Expense Account?
If you haven’t already set up an account during Online Check-In or during boarding in the cruise terminal, stop by our Guest Services Desk on Deck 5. Onboard Expense Accounts can be set up with a credit card, a debit card, or cash.
Important Information:
How do I pay for things onboard?
Our ships utilize a cashless system. Once your Onboard Expense Account has been set up, simply present your SeaPass Card any time you’d like to make a purchase.
Can I change my form of payment after I’ve set up my account?
To update the form of payment on your Onboard Expense Account, please visit our Guest Services Desk on Deck 5. Please note, prior holds will remain on the original card until final charges are submitted at the end of the cruise.
Can I add additional guests to my Onboard Expense Account?
Yes, additional guests from your stateroom or another stateroom may be added as authorized users on your account. Please visit our Guest Services Desk to do this.
How can I track my onboard spending?
All charges can be viewed in the Royal Caribbean App or on your Stateroom TV. Printed receipts will be provided for each onboard purchase, and a statement will be delivered the night prior to debark (the final morning of your cruise). A final statement will be e-mailed to you within 24 hours of departing the ship on the last day of your cruise.
How do I settle my onboard charges?
If you set up your account with a credit or debit card, we’ll automatically post the final charge to your card on file. Guests on a cash account will need to settle their account at Guest Services prior to disembarking the ship.
I have Onboard Credits (OBC). How can I use them?
Available onboard credit amounts can be viewed on your account beginning on Day 2 of your sailing via the Royal App or on your stateroom TV. On the last day of your cruise, all onboard credits will be applied to your outstanding account balance before additional payment methods are charged. If your OBC is refundable (not associated to a promotion), any remaining unused balance will be refunded to your card on file. If your OBC is promotional, the value is “use it or lose it” and any remaining amounts will be forfeit at the end of the cruise.
Can limits be placed by parents or guardians on arcade spending?
While our system automatically sets a $50 per person per day limit, this can be increased/decreased to any preferred amount. Just ask your friendly Arcade Attendant to adjust it. Please note, this is a daily limit. A cruise limit cannot be set.

How can I make specialty restaurant reservations?
Specialty Dining reservations can be made through the Royal Caribbean App. You may also call 7000 on your stateroom phone and select the restaurant you wish to dine in or visit our specialty booth on Deck 5 next to Sorrentos.

Royal Caribbean’s multi-million-dollar original production, spectacularly chronicles the evolution of humanity’s endless fascination with flying. We begin in the future at the launch of the world’s first aerospace cruiser, as we rocket our entire audience to MARS on its first ever commercial flight to the red planet. Flight then continues on a unique journey, backwards in time, from one major aerospace “first” to the next. The grand finale is a stunning dramatization of the biggest moment of all, the Wright Brothers’ first flight at Kitty Hawk!
Our time-traveling, dimension hopping hero, the Tempus, is on another amazing adventure! This time the mission is to catch the infamous jewel thief, “Black Max”. The story starts in London in 1977 and could end up anywhere.

Royal Caribbean’s multi-million-dollar original production, spectacularly chronicles the evolution of humanity’s endless fascination with flying. We begin in the future at the launch of the world’s first aerospace cruiser, as we rocket our entire audience to MARS on its first ever commercial flight to the red planet. Flight then continues on a unique journey, backwards in time, from one major aerospace “first” to the next. The grand finale is a stunning dramatization of the biggest moment of all, the Wright Brothers’ first flight at Kitty Hawk!
Our time-traveling, dimension hopping hero, the Tempus, is on another amazing adventure! This time the mission is to catch the infamous jewel thief, “Black Max”. The story starts in London in 1977 and could end up anywhere.
Our talented skaters put their best blade forward in iSkate 2.0, a dazzling showcase of their very best moves set to their own favorite tunes. The ice cast have gone rogue and anything can happen!
Just when you thought you’d seen it all, Royal Caribbean brings you HiRO. With even more amazing high-flying feats and unexpected stunts, we bring together some of the world’s best extreme-sport athletes. HiRO redefines the limits of a theatrical production on the high seas. This mind-blowing show combines cutting edge technology, future forward choreography and highly innovative physicality in a never-before-seen way. It’s exciting, jaw-dropping and unpredictable, with no two shows ever being exactly the same. Get ready, because anything can happen!
Big hair, big dreams and all the right moves and you’ve got one of the biggest Broadway hits of our time - Hairspray. Winner of eight Tony Awards and 4 Laurence Olivier Awards, including Best New Musical, this feel good musical is back by popular demand! Break out your bobby socks, because Tracy Turnblad won’t stop until she gets her shot at dancing on The Corny Collins Show. But TV stardom is just the beginning. Hairspray is back, and you can’t stop the beat!

Royal Caribbean App

Make the most of your time onboard by planning your cruise in the Royal Caribbean App. No need to wait in line – book dining, shows, and shore excursions via the App! You can also browse your Cruise Compass, Ship Map, Perfect Day at CocoCay Map, view restaurant & bar menus, review onboard purchases, and more! The app is free to download and use and is available in both the Apple App Store and the Google Play Store.

Onboard Expense Account
How do I setup a Royal Caribbean SeaPass or Onboard Expense Account?
If you haven’t already set up an account during Online Check-In or during boarding in the cruise terminal, stop by our Guest Services Desk on Deck 5. Onboard Expense Accounts can be set up with a credit card, a debit card, or cash.
Important Information:
How do I pay for things onboard?
Our ships utilize a cashless system. Once your Onboard Expense Account has been set up, simply present your SeaPass Card any time you’d like to make a purchase.
Can I change my form of payment after I’ve set up my account?
To update the form of payment on your Onboard Expense Account, please visit our Guest Services Desk on Deck 5. Please note, prior holds will remain on the original card until final charges are submitted at the end of the cruise.
Can I add additional guests to my Onboard Expense Account?
Yes, additional guests from your stateroom or another stateroom may be added as authorized users on your account. Please visit our Guest Services Desk to do this.
How can I track my onboard spending?
All charges can be viewed in the Royal Caribbean App or on your Stateroom TV. Printed receipts will be provided for each onboard purchase, and a statement will be delivered the night prior to debark (the final morning of your cruise). A final statement will be e-mailed to you within 24 hours of departing the ship on the last day of your cruise.
How do I settle my onboard charges?
If you set up your account with a credit or debit card, we’ll automatically post the final charge to your card on file. Guests on a cash account will need to settle their account at Guest Services prior to disembarking the ship.
I have Onboard Credits (OBC). How can I use them?
Available onboard credit amounts can be viewed on your account beginning on Day 2 of your sailing via the Royal App or on your stateroom TV. On the last day of your cruise, all onboard credits will be applied to your outstanding account balance before additional payment methods are charged. If your OBC is refundable (not associated to a promotion), any remaining unused balance will be refunded to your card on file. If your OBC is promotional, the value is “use it or lose it” and any remaining amounts will be forfeit at the end of the cruise.
Can limits be placed by parents or guardians on arcade spending?
While our system automatically sets a $50 per person per day limit, this can be increased/decreased to any preferred amount. Just ask your friendly Arcade Attendant to adjust it. Please note, this is a daily limit. A cruise limit cannot be set.

L.A. has Headlined shows from coast to coast and internationally. He is welcomed nationally at clubs, private events AND Television
A comedy tornado of sarcastic anecdotes and personal storytelling. His topics are relatable to anyone whether he’s poking fun at childhood playground antics, marriage or raising kids.
Royal Caribbean’s multi-million-dollar original production, spectacularly chronicles the evolution of humanity’s endless fascination with flying. We begin in the future at the launch of the world’s first aerospace cruiser, as we rocket our entire audience to MARS on its first ever commercial flight to the red planet. Flight then continues on a unique journey, backwards in time, from one major aerospace “first” to the next. The grand finale is a stunning dramatization of the biggest moment of all, the Wright Brothers’ first flight at Kitty Hawk!
Our time-traveling, dimension hopping hero, the Tempus, is on another amazing adventure! This time the mission is to catch the infamous jewel thief, “Black Max”. The story starts in London in 1977 and could end up anywhere.
Our talented skaters put their best blade forward in iSkate 2.0, a dazzling showcase of their very best moves set to their own favorite tunes. The ice cast have gone rogue and anything can happen!
Just when you thought you’d seen it all, Royal Caribbean brings you HiRO. With even more amazing high-flying feats and unexpected stunts, we bring together some of the world’s best extreme-sport athletes. HiRO redefines the limits of a theatrical production on the high seas. This mind-blowing show combines cutting edge technology, future forward choreography and highly innovative physicality in a never-before-seen way. It’s exciting, jaw-dropping and unpredictable, with no two shows ever being exactly the same. Get ready, because anything can happen!
Big hair, big dreams and all the right moves and you’ve got one of the biggest Broadway hits of our time - Hairspray. Winner of eight Tony Awards and 4 Laurence Olivier Awards, including Best New Musical, this feel good musical is back by popular demand! Break out your bobby socks, because Tracy Turnblad won’t stop until she gets her shot at dancing on The Corny Collins Show. But TV stardom is just the beginning. Hairspray is back, and you can’t stop the beat!

L. A. Hardy is bLACK dAD. A character, superhero, sage and most of all a dAD! A world of experience traveling to over 32 countries entertaining the US military since 1996. L.A. has Headlined shows from coast to coast and internationally. He is welcomed nationally at clubs, private events AND Television
A comedy tornado of sarcastic anecdotes and personal storytelling. His topics are relatable to anyone whether he’s poking fun at childhood playground antics, marriage or raising kids.
Royal Caribbean’s multi-million-dollar original production, spectacularly chronicles the evolution of humanity’s endless fascination with flying. We begin in the future at the launch of the world’s first aerospace cruiser, as we rocket our entire audience to MARS on its first ever commercial flight to the red planet. Flight then continues on a unique journey, backwards in time, from one major aerospace “first” to the next. The grand finale is a stunning dramatization of the biggest moment of all, the Wright Brothers’ first flight at Kitty Hawk!
Our time-traveling, dimension hopping hero, the Tempus, is on another amazing adventure! This time the mission is to catch the infamous jewel thief, “Black Max”. The story starts in London in 1977 and could end up anywhere.
Our talented skaters put their best blade forward in iSkate 2.0, a dazzling showcase of their very best moves set to their own favorite tunes. The ice cast have gone rogue and anything can happen!
Just when you thought you’d seen it all, Royal Caribbean brings you HiRO. With even more amazing high-flying feats and unexpected stunts, we bring together some of the world’s best extreme-sport athletes. HiRO redefines the limits of a theatrical production on the high seas. This mind-blowing show combines cutting edge technology, future forward choreography and highly innovative physicality in a never-before-seen way. It’s exciting, jaw-dropping and unpredictable, with no two shows ever being exactly the same. Get ready, because anything can happen!
Big hair, big dreams and all the right moves and you’ve got one of the biggest Broadway hits of our time - Hairspray. Winner of eight Tony Awards and 4 Laurence Olivier Awards, including Best New Musical, this feel good musical is back by popular demand! Break out your bobby socks, because Tracy Turnblad won’t stop until she gets her shot at dancing on The Corny Collins Show. But TV stardom is just the beginning. Hairspray is back, and you can’t stop the beat!

You can also browse your Cruise Compass, Ship Map, Perfect Day at CocoCay Map, view restaurant & bar menus, review onboard purchases, and more!

If you haven’t already set up an account during Online Check-In or during boarding in the cruise terminal, stop by our Guest Services Desk on Deck 5. Onboard Expense Accounts can be set up with a credit card, a debit card, or cash.
Important Information:
How do I pay for things onboard?
Our ships utilize a cashless system. Once your Onboard Expense Account has been set up, simply present your SeaPass Card any time you’d like to make a purchase.
Can I change my form of payment after I’ve set up my account?
To update the form of payment on your Onboard Expense Account, please visit our Guest Services Desk on Deck 5. Please note, prior holds will remain on the original card until final charges are submitted at the end of the cruise.

How can I track my onboard spending?
All charges can be viewed in the Royal Caribbean App or on your Stateroom TV. Printed receipts will be provided for each onboard purchase, and a statement will be delivered the night prior to debark (the final morning of your cruise). A final statement will be e-mailed to you within 24 hours of departing the ship on the last day of your cruise.
How do I settle my onboard charges?
If you set up your account with a credit or debit card, we’ll automatically post the final charge to your card on file. Guests on a cash account will need to settle their account at Guest Services prior to disembarking the ship.
I have Onboard Credits (OBC). How can I use them?
Available onboard credit amounts can be viewed on your account beginning on Day 2 of your sailing via the Royal App or on your stateroom TV. On the last day of your cruise, all onboard credits will be applied to your outstanding account balance before additional payment methods are charged. If your OBC is refundable (not associated to a promotion), any remaining unused balance will be refunded to your card on file. If your OBC is promotional, the value is “use it or lose it” and any remaining amounts will be forfeit at the end of the cruise.
Can limits be placed by parents or guardians on arcade spending?
