Legal Information

THIS IS AN IMPORTANT AND LEGALLY BINDING DOCUMENT. PLEASE READ THIS DOCUMENT CAREFULLY AND IN ITS ENTIRETY.

The Terms of Use set forth herein (the “Terms”) govern your access to and use of various websites, mobile application(s), kiosks, and other digital platforms (together, the “Digital Platforms”) owned, operated, licensed or controlled by Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd., its subsidiaries, affiliates or joint ventures (“we,” “us,” “our,” or the "Company").

Supplemental terms of sale and terms of use (the “Supplemental Terms”) may apply to certain events, programs, activities or promotions, and such Supplemental Terms may be disclosed to you separately. Any Supplemental Terms and conditions are in addition to these Terms and, in the event of a conflict, prevail over these terms.

BY CLICKING “I ACCEPT,” DOWNLOADING, INSTALLING, OR OTHERWISE ACCESSING OR USING THE SERVICES, YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE READ AND UNDERSTOOD, AND AGREE TO BE BOUND, BY THE FOLLOWING TERMS AND CONDITIONS, INCLUDING all applicable laws and regulations (including export and re-export control laws), and PRIVACY POLICY (TOGETHER, THE “TERMS”).

If you do not agree to the Terms, then you do not have our permission to use the Digital Platforms.

We reserve the right, at our discretion, to change these Terms on a going-forward basis at any time. Please check these Terms periodically for changes. If a change to these Terms materially modifies your rights or obligations, you will be required to accept the modified Terms in order to continue to use the Digital Platforms. Material modifications are effective upon your acceptance of the modified Terms. Immaterial modifications are effective upon publication. Except as expressly permitted by this paragraph, these Terms may be amended only by a written agreement signed by authorized representatives of the parties to these Terms. Disputes arising under these Terms will be resolved in accordance with the version of these Terms that was in effect at the time the dispute arose.

1. General Terms

These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and any other agreements expressly incorporated by reference into these Terms, are the entire and exclusive understanding and agreement between you and the Company regarding your use of the Digital Platforms. You may not assign or transfer these Terms or your rights under these Terms, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise, without our prior written consent. We may assign these Terms at any time without notice or consent. The failure to require performance of any provision will not affect our right to require performance at any other time after that, nor will a waiver by us of any breach or default of these Terms, or any provision of these Terms, be a waiver of any subsequent breach or default or a waiver of the provision itself. Use of section headers in these Terms is for convenience only and will not have any impact on the interpretation of any provision. Throughout these Terms the use of the word “including” means “including but not limited to”. If any part of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the unenforceable part will be given effect to the greatest extent possible, and the remaining parts will remain in full force and effect.

2. User Accounts and Registration

In order to use most aspects of the Digital Platforms, you must register for and maintain an active personal user account (“Account”). You must be at least thirteen (13) years of age to obtain an Account. If you are between the ages of 13 and 18, you represent and warrant that you possess the legal consent of your parent or guardian to access and use the Digital Platforms.

Account registration requires you to submit to Company certain personal information, such as your name, address, mobile phone number and date of birth, among others. You agree to maintain accurate, complete, and up-to-date information in your Account. Your failure to maintain accurate, complete, and up-to-date Account information, may result in your inability to access or use the Digital Platforms.

It is a condition of your use of the Digital Platforms that you provide user account registration details on behalf of yourself, and not others. Although you may assist others in creating their own accounts, you may not impersonate others on the Digital Platforms.

You are responsible for all activity that occurs under your Account, and you agree to maintain the security and secrecy of your Account username and password at all times. Unless otherwise permitted by Company in writing, you may only possess one Account. You may not assign or otherwise transfer your Account to any other person or entity.

3. Mobile Network

We reserve the right to withdraw or amend the Digital Platforms and any material we provide on the Digital Platforms, in our sole discretion without notice. We will not be liable if, for any reason, all or any part of Digital Platforms is unavailable at any time or for any period. From time to time, we may restrict access to some parts of the Digital Platforms, or all Digital Platforms, to users, including registered users.

You are responsible for making all arrangements necessary for you to have access to the Digital Platforms (including but not limited to obtaining any necessary hardware and operating system software, or any internet connectivity that may be required to access the Digital Platforms).

Some of the features of the Digital Platforms may enable the Company to access your location in order to tailor your experience with the Digital Platform(s) based on your location ("Location-based Services"). In order to use certain Location-based Services, you must enable certain features of your hardware (e.g., your mobile phone), which enable the Company to identify your location through a variety of means, which may include IP address, cell tower location, geo-fencing technology, or detection by physical on-location Wi-Fi or Bluetooth sensors, as available. If you choose to disable any Location-based Services on your device, you may not be able to utilize certain features of the Digital Platforms. By enabling Location-based Services, you agree and acknowledge that: (i) device data we collect from you is directly relevant to your use of the Digital Platforms; (ii) we may provide Location-based Services related to and based on your then-current location; and (iii) we may use any such information collected in connection with provision of the Digital Platforms.

6. Guest to Guest Chat

Our Digital Platforms may make available to you, at no charge, a guest-to-guest chat functionality that will enable you to stay connected with friends and family while sailing (the “Chat”). Please note G2G Chat functionality is available only while you are onboard one of our vessels, and only when you are connected to our Royal WiFi.

Importantly, you will only be able to use G2G Chat to stay connected with others in your reservation and/or stateroom. We may, in later releases, provide you the ability to stay connected with other guests onboard that are not in your traveling party.

We will retain G2G Chat history only for the duration of your voyage and we will purge all chat history once your voyage ends. Our Privacy Policy, and other applicable laws (including but not limited to the United States’ Stored Communications Act and the CLOUD Act) may apply with regard to the privacy of the content included in your G2G Chat communications.

You agree that you will not use G2G Chat to submit any material that you know to be false, defamatory, inaccurate, abusive, vulgar, hateful, harassing, obscene, profane, threatening, or invasive of another guest’s privacy. You agree not to use G2G Chat to transmit any content intended to incite or provoke violence.

To the extent you use G2G Chat to upload, submit, store, send or receive content, you retain ownership of any intellectual property rights that you hold in that content.

When you upload, submit, store, send or receive content to or through our G2G Chat, you give us a worldwide license to use, host, store, reproduce, modify, create derivative works (i.e., adaptations or other changes we make so that your content works within our service), communicate, publish, publicly perform, publicly display and distribute such content. You represent and warrant that you have the necessary rights to grant us a license for any content that you submit to G2G Chat.

The rights you grant in this license are for the limited purpose of operating, promoting, and improving our Digital Platforms.

We do not warrant the accuracy, completeness or usefulness of this information. Any reliance you place on such information is strictly at your own risk. We disclaim all liability and responsibility arising from any reliance placed on such materials by you or any other visitor to the Digital Platforms, or by anyone who may be informed of any of its contents.

All purchases through the Digital Platforms or other transactions for the sale of goods, or services or information formed through the Digital Platforms or as a result of visits made by you may be governed by separate terms of sale and terms of use. Separate terms may be provided through the Digital Platforms, onboard our vessels, or via a separate channel (i.e., a port agent, prior to boarding).

We reserve the right to refuse or cancel any order prior to delivery. Some situations that may result in your order being cancelled include system or typographical errors, inaccuracies in product or pricing information or product availability, fairness among customers where supplies are limited, or problems identified by our credit or fraud departments. We also may require additional verification or information before accepting an order. We will contact you if any portion of your order is cancelled or if additional information is required to accept your order.

We require credit card information in order to set up an expense account for sailing guests (the “Onboard Expense Account”). You may set up an Onboard Expense Account for you, your traveling party; or you may set up an Onboard Expense Account for sailing guest(s) even though you may not be part of a voyage.

More than one guest may use the same Onboard Expense Account. For example, you and all others in your stateroom may charge onboard purchases to the same Onboard Expense Account. By including other guests in your Onboard Expense Account, you (a) authorize them to sign on behalf of the Onboard Expense Account and (b) authorize their purchases to be charged to your Onboard Expense Account and the credit card associated with it.

Prior to sailing, your Onboard Expense Account and the credit card associated with your Onboard Expense Account will not reflect any charges or authorizations.

By providing us credit card account information you certify you are the named cardholder and you authorize us to charge the credit card account you provide for any outstanding balance on the Onboard Expense Account prior to the end of your voyage. You further agree to be personally liable for any outstanding balance disputed by the credit card issuer.

Alternatively, in the event you are not the named cardholder, you certify you (a) are an adult with full legal authority to enter into a contract on behalf of the named cardholder, and (b) have received authorization from the named cardholder for us to charge the credit card account you provide for any outstanding balance on the Onboard Expense Account prior to the end of your voyage. You further affirm that the named cardholder has had an opportunity to read these Terms, and that they understand and accept all these Terms. You further agree to be personally liable for any outstanding balance disputed by the named cardholder.

20. Vessel Operator

Sailings may be operated by the Company, or its affiliates. See your passenger ticket contract for the identity of the specific operator/carrier for your sailing.

21. Nonrefundable Deposit Program

A booking made under the non-refundable deposit cruise fare rate (an "NRD Booking") requires the payment of a non-refundable deposit at the time of booking. The deposit is not refundable at any time after it has been paid. Payment of the full non-refundable deposit and the full name for each guest is required at the time of booking. Deposits made toward Guarantees and Grand Suites and higher categories are non-refundable and subject to NRD Booking terms.

If a guest cancels an NRD Booking prior to the final payment due date, the cancellation terms of the cruise ticket contract apply, and Royal Caribbean International will issue a future cruise credit in the amount of the deposit paid minus a $100 USD per person service fee to the guest named on the cancelled NRD Booking (the "FCC"). The FCC is applicable only towards the purchase of a Royal Caribbean International cruise and expires 12-months after the issue date (the "Expiration Date"). Any amount remaining after the Expiration Date will be void and forfeited. The FCC is non-transferable, non-refundable, and not redeemable for any other form
of compensation, credit, or cash. For NRD Bookings that require a deposit of $100 USD or less, no FCC or any other compensation or credit of any kind will be issued.

Each time the guest changes the ship or sail date of an NRD Booking prior to the final payment due date, payments made towards the NRD Booking will be applied to the balance of the modified booking and a $100 USD per person service fee will be charged to the modified booking.

This offer is available exclusively to residents of United States and Canada. Prices are subject to availability, subject to change without notice; capacity controlled, and may be withdrawn at any time. The Company reserves the right to correct any errors, inaccuracies or omissions and to change or update fares, fees and surcharges at any time without prior notice.

We assume no liability or responsibility for any errors or omissions in the content of any Company Digital Platforms. The Company is not responsible for pricing, typographical, or other errors and reserves the right to cancel without liability any bookings made at erroneous rates.

While the Company may make changes to the information in Digital Platforms or to any Company service or product at any time without notice, the Company makes no commitment to update the information on the Digital Platforms.

APPLICABLE LAW MAY NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES, SO THE ABOVE EXCLUSION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

23. Limitation on Liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL THE COMPANY ENTITIES BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES (INCLUDING DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, GOODWILL, OR ANY OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSS) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO YOUR ACCESS TO OR USE OF, OR YOUR INABILITY TO ACCESS OR USE, THE SERVICE OR ANY MATERIALS OR CONTENT ON THE SERVICE, WHETHER BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STATUTE, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, AND WHETHER OR NOT ANY COMPANY ENTITY HAS BEEN INFORMED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF DAMAGE.

All matters relating to the Digital Platforms and these Terms of Use and any dispute or claim arising therefrom or related thereto (in each case, including non-contractual disputes or claims), shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Florida or any other jurisdiction).

26. Dispute Resolution and Arbitration

In the interest of resolving disputes between you and Company in the most expedient and cost-effective manner, you and Company agree that every dispute arising in connection with these Terms will be resolved by binding arbitration. Arbitration is less formal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, may allow for more limited discovery than in court, and can be subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. This agreement to arbitrate disputes includes all claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of these Terms, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, and regardless of whether a claim arises during or after the termination of these Terms. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THESE TERMS, YOU AND THE COMPANY ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION, AND THAT THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE SUBJECT TO AND GOVERNED BY THE FEDERAL ARBITRATION ACT.

Nothing in these Terms will be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise limit the right of either party to: (i) bring an individual action in small claims court; (ii) pursue an enforcement action through the applicable federal, state, or local agency if that action is available; (iii) seek injunctive relief in aid of arbitration from a court
of competent jurisdiction; or (iv) to file suit in a court of law to address an intellectual property infringement claim.

Any arbitration between you and Company will be settled under the Federal Arbitration Act, and governed by the Commercial Dispute Resolution Procedures and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively, “AAA Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), as modified by
these Terms, and will be administered by the AAA. The AAA Rules and filing forms are available online at www.adr.org, by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879, or by contacting Company. The arbitrator has exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, or enforceability of this binding arbitration agreement.

A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send a written notice of the dispute to the other party by certified U.S. Mail or electronic mail (“Notice”). Company’s address for Notice is: Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd., 1050 Caribbean Way, Miami, Florida 33132. The Notice must: (i) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (ii) set forth the specific relief sought (“Demand”). The parties will make good faith efforts to resolve the claim directly, but if the parties do not reach an agreement to do so within 30 days after the Notice is received, you or Company may commence an arbitration proceeding. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by you or Company must not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator makes a final decision and award, if any. If the dispute is finally resolved through arbitration in your favor, Company will pay you the highest of the following: (A) the amount awarded by the arbitrator, if any; (B) the last written settlement amount offered by Company in settlement of the dispute prior to the arbitrator’s award; or (C) $15,000.

Any arbitration hearing will take place at a location to be agreed upon in Miami-Dade County, Florida. If the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in the Demand is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. In that case, you agree to reimburse Company for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the AAA Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator must issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision and award, if any, are based. Each party agrees that such written decision, and information exchanged during arbitration, will be kept confidential except to the extent necessary to enforce or permit limited judicial review of the award. The arbitrator may make rulings and resolve disputes as to the payment and reimbursement of fees or expenses at any time during the proceeding and upon request from either party made within 14 days of the arbitrator’s ruling on the merits.

YOU AND THE COMPANY AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and Company agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.

If Company makes any future change to this arbitration provision, other than a change to Company’s address for Notice, you may reject the change by sending us written notice within 30 days of the change to Company’s address for Notice, in which case your account with the Company and access to the Digital Platforms will be immediately terminated and this arbitration provision, as in effect immediately prior to the changes you rejected will survive.
