This is a pretty crazy cruise deal: £530 each for 12 nights to Miami, while Royal Caribbean’s shorter 9-night Spain sailing from Southampton was £887 each when we checked.
So yes, the cheaper cruise is the longer one. The 18 October 2027 transatlantic sailing gives you three extra nights on Freedom of the Seas and still comes in more than £300 lower than that shorter Spanish Flair cruise.
The Royal Caribbean itinerary includes La Coruna, Vigo, Ponta Delgada, six sea days and arrival in Miami. Royal Caribbean says taxes and fees are included, with meals and standard onboard entertainment included in the cruise fare.
The trade-off is that you finish in Miami, so price the flight home before booking. Optional gratuities, drinks packages, excursions, Wi-Fi and speciality dining can also add to the total.
