Bliss Radiance 2026 FAQ

What is the ship like?

Royal Caribbean’s Radiance-class ships are smaller, more intimate, and more elegant than some of the other Royal Caribbean ships.

The Bliss Cruise on Radiance of the Seas will have multiple restaurants, three pools, whirlpools, a rock climbing wall, a miniature golf course, a sports court, a spa, a casino, and multiple bars and lounges.

About the Playrooms?

Its a Bliss Cruise and you can bet there will be signature playrooms galore.  It’s still too early to reveal the fabulousness but check back for updates.

What will the parties be like?

We love this class of ship! It’s easy to find the party and your friends.  You can expect all-out Bliss Parties – Guests will be dressed for the themes, and DJs will be rocking!

How can we find couples like us?

Onboard, we recommend attending one of the many Meet & Greets designed for specific interests. You will find meet and greets for almost anything you are into!  young couples, bi-couples, sexy and silver, kinky, French-speaking & you name it they probably have it.

Thanks to new technology, it’s easier than ever to find friends onboard using the Royal IQ app. You can chat, text, and even call your friends from your mobile phone. Bliss will also upgrade the Bliss App to chat and get to know other couples.

Will Drink Packages be available?

Yep! Just like on all Bliss Cruises, drink packages will be available for purchase!

• Prices for packages will be available closer to the sail date!

Bliss Radiance 2026 Theme Nights

Customers use these designed theme nights to create an alternate persona of themselves to really cut loose and have a blast! They sink into the idea of being someone or something else for the night. Past guests say dressing in the theme is half the fun and always say it helps break the ice and report more social interaction and more connections made with new friends.

How much “theme” is necessary? Well, that is up to you! Guests have ranged from an entire head-to-toe ensemble in some amazing outfits down to reflecting the night’s theme with a piece or accessory on their outfit.

Not necessarily into dressing up? That’s not a concern either. This trip is all about doing what says “I’m having a wonderful time.” with you and your partner.

Travel Insurance

Yikes, travel insurance is not a fun topic but a lot of you have asked…
This is about what happens if you are paid, packed and ready to go… and there is a problem.

The biggest 2 reasons people take insurance are:

• Trip Cancellation
• Medical Expenses or Medical Evacuation

Full Ship charters are better than regular cruises in many ways, however the penalties and potential for a loss if you have to cancel is higher. Shortly after final payment most full ship charter cruises become non-refundable. That means if you have to cancel your trip not only do you have that disappointment of a cancelled vacation, but I have to tell you you don’t get your money back.

Our most popular insurance is ‘World Wide Trip Protector’ and provides full coverage when purchased up to 21 days after your vacation purchase.

The best value just to make sure you have coverage is ‘Trip Protector Lite Expanded.’
