There’s going to be plenty to see and do on-board Allure of the Seas once she joins the fleet in May 2020 with all of the above! Once she returns from her Royal Amplification, she will sail on a seven-night Western Mediterranean cruise from Barcelona, visiting must-see cities such as Palma de Mallorca, Florence, Rome and Naples.

Later in the year, Allure of the Seas will then head to the Caribbean for her winter season.
