Princess Cays... GONE? Royal Caribbean is allowing your to bid on EXPERIENCES? And there's an important health notice involving Norwegian Prima.

This week’s Wake Report is packed with cruise news that could affect where you cruise, what you spend, and what you need to know before you sail. 🚢

In this episode:

🏝️ Princess Cruises is dropping Princess Cays from future itineraries — but why?

💰 Royal Caribbean is expanding RoyalUp beyond cabins. Could you soon be bidding on cabanas, daybeds, and other experiences?

⚠️ An important Norwegian Prima health notice and what affected guests need to know.

🚢 Philadelphia has a new cruise terminal as Norwegian Cruise Line begins sailing from the city.

🍽️ A change to NCL's specialty dining perk that could benefit more people in your cabin.

🧠 Oceania is adding more enrichment programming — including speakers, Mah Jongg, bridge, workshops and more.

💡 And in this week's Did You Know?: Princess and Holland America have standby programs that could be worth knowing about if you're flexible.

Plus, one money-saving option that Celebrity cruisers may have used in the past is no longer available.

Today starts Carnival's new revamped loyalty program, Carnival Rewards. This program rewards you based on what you spent rather than days at sea. After a lot backlash, they have delayed and revised the program to what it is today.

What do you think of their new program? Does it change your feelings about Carnival?

ROYAL CARIBBEAN UPDATES!!

You know about Royal Up? Well Royal Caribbean is now offering Royal Up Experiences where you can bid for premium experiences at Perfect Day CocoCay, The Royal Beach Club and onboard. It's by invitation and works similar to the cabin bidding process.

Also, Royal has now integrated the Next Cruise feature in their app. It will appear while you are onboard your sailing. No need to go to the desk if you don't want to!

What do you think of this new Royal Up Experiences program?
