Vision of the Seas

Most recently updated in late 2018 (with the exception of routine maintenance in 2022), the 2,514-passenger, 742-crew-member Vision of the Seas offers Royal Caribbean staples like diverse dining venues and nonstop entertainment. Past cruisers especially praise the ship's appealing decor and the Solarium, an adults-only pool and lounge area. 

In terms of food, travelers can choose from the main dining room, the buffet and several casual eateries. Cruisers recommend springing for a meal at the ship's specialty restaurants, which range from the Chops Grille steakhouse to the Izumi Asian venue. Food in the main dining room received mixed reviews, but travelers praised the service around the ship.

When it comes to daytime activities, guests can try rock climbing, swim in the pools (which can become crowded) or play games in the casino. There are also sushi- and cupcake-making classes available.

In terms of lodging, Vision of the Seas touts four staterooms categories: Interior, Ocean View, Balcony and Suite. Interior cabins range from 136 to 252 square feet, while Suites on the opposite end of the spectrum range from 243 to 1,140 square feet. Opt for a balcony-equipped Suite and you'll enjoy cushier extras like whirlpool bathtubs. All cabins include amenities like flat-screen TVs and vanity areas. 

Vision of the Seas departs from Baltimore for itineraries in the Caribbean, New England and Canada.

Norwegian Sky

Completely refurbished in 2022, Norwegian Sky carries 2,004 passengers and 899 crew members. Updates include fully renovated staterooms, new dining options, refreshed bars and lounges and more. There is now a full-service Starbucks on board as well. 

The ship now offers 10 restaurants, about half of which are specialty venues. There are plenty of family-friendly facilities, including youth-appropriate kids clubs, a video arcade and a dedicated kids pool. The ship also offers sports courts, a fitness center and a full-service spa.

When it comes to lodging, there are four cabin categories to choose from: Inside, Oceanview, Balcony and Suite. While Inside, Oceanview and Balcony cabins provide between 121 and 226 square feet of space, Suites span 402 to 835 square feet.

Carnival Legend

First introduced in 2002, the 2,124-passenger, 930-crew member Carnival Legend last received routine cosmetic updates in 2022. It is home to traveler favorites like the Alchemy Bar, BlueIguana Cantina and Tequila Bar, Guy's Burger Joint and the RedFrog Pub. The ship provides a wide array of entertainment and activities to satisfy multigenerational crowds.

Young cruisers (ages 2 to 17) can play at organized, age-appropriate clubs while adults attend a show at the comedy club or hit the casino. The ship was also one of the first to include the Build-A-Bear Workshop at Sea.

When it comes to lodging, about 80% of the ship’s staterooms offer ocean views, and a large number of those cabins feature balconies. While Interior staterooms are more budget-friendly, Balcony and Suite category rooms are worth the splurge, according to recent passengers. All staterooms include flat-screen TVs and 24-hour room service.

The ship's food options include two main dining rooms, a steakhouse, a sushi restaurant, a buffet with everything from pizza to Chinese fare and more.  

Carnival Legend departs from Baltimore , Tampa , Rome , Barcelona and London  for sailings in the Bahamas , the Caribbean, Bermuda , Canada, the Panama Canal and more.

Carnival Pride

Eighty percent of the staterooms aboard the 2,124-passenger, 930-crew member Carnival Pride provide ocean views, which is more than what the majority of the fleet's other ships offer. While those on a budget can opt for Interior staterooms, Balcony, Ocean View and Suite category cabins offer more space and scenery.

Either way, much of your time will likely be spent outside of your cabin, thanks to Carnival Pride's myriad of onboard activities. Cool off in one of the pools, splash around in the water park or tackle the 214-foot-long waterslide. Kids can head to age-appropriate youth clubs while adults grab a cocktail at one of multiple bars. At night, passengers can attend comedy shows and musicals or enjoy the nightclub and piano bar.

What's more, a renovation in 2014 equipped Pride with "Fun Ship 2.0" dining, including the popular Guy's Burger Joint and the specialty Bonsai Sushi eatery, plus amenities like the Seaside Theater and the Alchemy Bar. An even more recent refurbishment in February 2019 freshened the ship's public areas, renovated the arcade and more. 

Carnival Pride departs from Rome , London , Baltimore and Tampa, Florida , for sailings in the Caribbean, the Bahamas, Bermuda, Canada, Europe and the Panama Canal.

Tips for Cruising Out of Baltimore

Venturing on a cruise from Baltimore offers a wealth of options, whether you’re traveling with family, a group of friends, or on a budget. To make the most of your journey, consider these insightful tips:

  • Pre-Cruise Exploration : Arrive early in Baltimore to explore the city’s attractions, including historical sites and local parks like Fort McHenry. This not only enriches your travel experience but also helps manage any unexpected delays in ship arrivals.
  • Anticipate Delays : Be prepared for potential delays due to factors like weather or unforeseen events. Having a flexible schedule and a backup plan can alleviate stress and keep your family entertained during any waiting periods.
  • Health and Safety First : Check the health ratings of your chosen cruise via the CDC’s Vessel Sanitation Program. A high rating is a good indicator of the ship’s commitment to cleanliness and passenger well-being, essential for a safe and enjoyable experience.
  • Match the Cruise to Your Group : Choose a cruise based on your travel party. Families might prefer ships with kid-friendly activities, while groups of friends may enjoy cruises with diverse entertainment options. Budget-conscious travelers should look for all-inclusive packages and off-season deals.
  • Customize Your Experience : Tailor your cruise choice to your personal preferences. Whether it’s relaxation, adventure, culinary experiences, or the intimacy of a smaller ship like the Norwegian Sky, ensure the cruise aligns with your expectations.
  • Essential Pre-boarding Prep : Have a mandatory restroom break and finalize luggage arrangements before getting in the port’s queue. This simple step can prevent discomfort and confusion during the boarding process.
  • Stay Calm and Positive : Remember to take a moment to breathe and relax amidst the excitement and chaos of boarding. Trust in your preparations and look forward to the wonderful vacation ahead.

What is the #1 rated Cruise Line?

Known for its innovative ship designs, extensive onboard amenities, and versatile itineraries, it caters to travelers looking for both relaxation and adventure. Their Freestyle Cruising concept offers guests the freedom to dine without set times, attend Broadway-caliber shows, and enjoy a range of entertainment options, making it a favorite among many cruisers.

Which cruise ship has the best service?

Disney Cruise Line excels in family service, creating magical experiences that many find worth the investment , especially for those seeking a family-oriented vacation with a touch of Disney magic. Royal Caribbean and Celebrity Cruises prioritize luxury and attentive service. Holland America Line offers classic elegance, while Carnival and Norwegian Cruise Line provide a relaxed, fun ambiance. MSC Cruises emphasizes Mediterranean-style service, blending warmth and sophistication. Each line uniquely caters to travelers’ distinct preferences and desires.

How do I choose the best cruise deal?

To secure the best cruise deal, consider off-season cruises for reduced prices. Booking early can yield promotions, while late bookings offer last-minute discounts as well in some cases. Older ships typically charge less than newer ones. Travel agents can highlight exclusive deals. Finally, repositioning cruises, where ships change regions, provide cost-effective unique itineraries.

Royal Caribbean's 9-month world cruise rerouted amid Red Sea attacks

cruises from baltimore royal caribbean

Royal Caribbean International is rerouting its nine-month world cruise amid continued attacks in the Red Sea.

The line’s Ultimate World Cruise, currently sailing on the line’s Serenade of the Seas ship, was set to transit through the Suez Canal in May. The vessel will now sail one of two alternate routes – and passengers get a say.

“In keeping with the adventurous spirit of our guests, we are engaging them for their thoughts and preference between two alternative itineraries that will take them on an epic adventure to Africa,”  a Royal Caribbean spokesperson told USA TODAY in an emailed statement. “They will receive compensation for the adjustment, and guests who prefer to not sail on the updated itinerary will receive a full refund and support for their travel arrangements.”

The spokesperson did not immediately respond to an additional question about how much passengers would be compensated.

The news comes as luxury line Crystal made similar changes to avoid the Red Sea, canceling a March 27 cruise on Crystal Symphony from Mumbai to Piraeus. The line is also rerouting multiple segments of Crystal Serenity’s 2024 world cruise , though the sailing’s length and its June 8 end date will remain the same.

“We are in the process of notifying all impacted guests on both ships,” Crystal said in a statement on Friday. “We greatly appreciate our guests and crew for their understanding and patience during this process.”

The Iranian-backed Houthis have launched repeated attacks on commercial and naval vessels in the Red Sea amid the Israel-Hamas war . The Yemen-based militants have claimed they are showing solidarity with the Palestinians, but experts say there is more to their motivations .

Many other lines, including Virgin Voyages, MSC Cruises and Silversea Cruises, have recently canceled or rerouted sailings away from the area.

Cruise from Boston, Massachusetts

The city steeped in history.

On a cruise from Boston, you'll discover why so many people flock to one of the oldest cities in America. Central to the places you want to visit, like the quaint coasts of the Northeast and Canada or the exotic islands of Bermuda, Barbados and Aruba, Boston is not only a doorway to the past, it's also a doorway to the future. Before embarking on your next vacation, enjoy some of the top places to visit in Boston from the sprawling greenery of Boston Common Park to the Public Garden.
