Royal Caribbean’s annual President’s Cruise is a unique sailing experience hosted by the company’s President and CEO, Michael Bayley. This event is open to all guests, regardless of their status within the Crown & Anchor Society, making it an inclusive opportunity for Royal Caribbean enthusiasts to come together.
The President’s Cruise stands out for its exclusive merchandise, special events, and unique entertainment. Past cruises have featured performances by high-profile artists like the Grammy-winning Chaka Khan and the ’80s band Culture Club, adding a layer of excitement and exclusivity to the voyage.
The 2025 President’s Cruise will be held on Utopia of the Seas, setting sail on September 22, 2025, from Port Canaveral, Florida.
This 4-night cruise will visit two of Royal Caribbean’s most celebrated destinations: Perfect Day at CocoCay and Nassau, Bahamas. The choice of Utopia of the Seas is significant as it brings the event back to the United States and showcases the cruise line’s newest ship, designed to attract new cruisers with its 40+ dining, drinking, and celebration options. This sailing will also coincide with the opening of the Royal Beach Club at Paradise Island in Nassau, offering a private oasis exclusive to Royal Caribbean passengers.
The President’s Cruise is more than just a journey; it’s a celebration of the Royal Caribbean community, featuring customized shore excursions, exclusive parties, and unforgettable events. The presence of Michael Bayley onboard adds a personal touch, making it a reunion for some of the most loyal cruisers.
With its blend of luxury, entertainment, and camaraderie, the President’s Cruise promises once-in-a-lifetime memories for all who embark on this special voyage.
