Key Takeaways

• Royal Caribbean beat profit and sales estimates, and raised its outlook on higher prices and onboard sales.
• Booking volumes were above 2019, and at record pricing levels.
• The company estimates 2023 EPS will be well above its previous forecast.

Shares of Royal Caribbean Group ( RCL ) jumped 8.7% on Thursday after the cruise line operator posted better-than-expected results and raised its outlook on an increase in pricing for short-term bookings and higher onboard revenue.

Royal Caribbean reported fiscal 2023 second quarter earnings per share (EPS) of $1.82, and revenue skyrocketed 61% to $3.52 billion. Both were above forecasts.  

The company noted that booking volume remained significantly greater than at the same time in 2019 before the COVID-19 lockdowns devastated the industry, and they were at record pricing levels.

CEO Jason Liberty said “demand for cruising and our brands is exceptionally strong,” adding that the company has seen “another step change in booking volumes and pricing.”

Royal Caribbean now anticipates full year EPS of $6.00 to $6.20, up from the previous $4.40 to $4.80, and more than analysts' estimates.

Royal Caribbean shares soared to their highest level since February 2020. Shares of industry rivals were up as well.

'Drunk' 20-year-old man missing after jumping off a Royal Caribbean cruise ship

• A 20-year-old man on holiday with his family jumped off a Royal Caribbean cruise. 
• The man has been missing since jumping overboard in front of his father and brother.
• The US Coast Guard has launched a search operation. 

A 20-year-old man jumped off the Royal Caribbean's Liberty of the Seas cruise on Thursday morning while vacationing with his family.

The passenger, whose identity has not been revealed, jumped overboard at about 4 a.m. and has been missing since.

The US Coast Guard said on X on Thursday that its crews were "searching for a 20-year-old man who went overboard from the Liberty of the Seas cruise ship near The Bahamas.

A Royal Caribbean spokesperson told Business Insider in a statement: "Our Care Team is providing support and assistance to the guest's family during this difficult time."

Passengers on the Liberty of the Seas ship described the tragedy as a "spur-of-the-moment decision."

Passenger Bryan Sims told the New York Post that the missing passenger was "pretty drunk" and that they had hung out in the hot tub until 3:30 a.m.

Sims said that when they left the hot tub, they encountered the drunk passenger's father while approaching the elevators.

"His dad was fussing at him for being drunk," said Sims.

The unidentified passenger reportedly told his father, "I'll fix this right now," and jumped out of the window.

Fellow passengers said his father and brother witnessed the "impulsive" leap.

Deborah Morrison, another passenger on board the cruise, told the Post that "there was a lot of yelling and that the crew was alerted immediately."

"The ship's crew immediately launched a search and rescue effort alongside the US Coast Guard, who has taken over the search," the Royal Caribbean spokesperson said.

The US Coast Guard said USCG Cutter Seneca and Air Station Miami HC-144 crews were conducting the search.

The Liberty of the Seas departed from South Florida and was 57 miles from Great Inagua in The Bahamas when the passenger jumped overboard.

The cruise ship has 18 decks and can accommodate 3,634 passengers, served by a crew of about 1,300.

The chances of you falling overboard off a cruise ship are extremely low .

In 2023, About 31 million passengers traveled on a cruise, and about 10 people went overboard, of which two miraculously survived, Business Insider reported .

"Even one incident is one too many," CLIA told Business Insider, explaining that "the vast majority of cases are either reckless behavior or some form of intentional act. People don't just inadvertently fall over the side of a ship."

Last month, a 23-year-old man who felt seasick fell overboard from the MSC Euribia cruise ship while crossing the North Sea in Europe and was presumed dead.

In December, an MSC Cruises passenger jumped from one of its ships while sailing from Europe to South America.

According to a Cruise Lines International Association (CLIA) report, only 28.2% of passengers who fell overboard from 2009 to 2019 were successfully rescued.

Royal caribbean cruise passenger with dementia, 66, disappears while on vacation in mexico.

An American cruise passenger, who was recently diagnosed with dementia, vanished while he was on vacation with his family in Mexico

Edmond Bradley Solomon III, a 66-year-old South Carolina resident, had taken the trip down to the Caribbean on Royal Caribbean’s Icon of the Seas and had planned to spend the day at port in Cozumel, Mexico, according to WCBD-TV .

The former VA critical care nurse had disappeared minutes after getting off the ship at the Caribbean port last week.

Solomon, who goes by Brad, was recently diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia, a group of diseases caused by progressive nerve cell loss that affects a person’s behavior and not memory.

“He sometimes says odd things and behaves erratically — or oddly — because he’s just doing what he knows how to do,” Solomon’s daughter Savanah Miller told the outlet. “He can’t process the same way you or I can.”

Solomon and his wife Mimi disembarked from the ship around 1:30 p.m. on April 3 and stopped for a restroom break before leaving the terminal when the nightmare unfolded.

“When my stepmom, Mimi, came out, he wasn’t there,” Miller said. “She thought he might still be in the bathroom so she waited for him for a few minutes. He didn’t come out.”

A family member with the couple had gone into the bathroom to check on Solomon but discovered he wasn’t there.

Solomon was reported missing just after 8 p.m. Wednesday and a search and rescue operation was launched at 9 p.m., according to local agency Cozumel Civil Protection.

During the search, local police received a call from a taxi driver who claimed to have picked up a tourist matching Solomon’s description at around 2:30 p.m. and was asked to drop the American off at a road with beach access, according to Mexico News Daily, citing authorities.

The taxi driver allegedly said Solomon had paid for the ride using his watch because he claimed he didn’t have any money.

Photos captured search and rescue efforts unfolding in wooded areas during the day and night.

“The search focused on the vicinity of Isla de la Pasión and all the beaches and businesses in the northern hotel zone were visited, without success,” a statement from the Civil Protection read.

Local police said Solomon had a necklace with a GPS, which only works when within 33 feet of his wife’s phone, and was last seen wearing a white t-shirt, grey shorts, dark sunglasses and a blue hat.

Solomon was reportedly spotted later Wednesday evening along the road of Isla de la Pasión in Cozumel.

“The Public Security Directorate reported that Mr. Solomon was possibly wandering around the urban area.”

The distressed daughter didn’t learn about her father’s disappearance until the next morning.

“I got the call about 5:30 in the morning and I just froze,” Miller said. “I didn’t even know how to process this information.”

Miller and other family members had planned to travel down to Mexico to be with Mimi and help with the search for her father.

“I’m really looking forward to having Mimi by my side and being able to give my dad a hug again,” Miller told WCBD.

Miller and her cousins spent Saturday searching the city with her family and were told of several possible sightings of her father throughout the day.

She was told her father could be staying hydrated and using the bathroom at local churches.

“He is lost and scared. He cannot show or process emotions like a healthy person would,” Miller said in a post on Facebook.

A GoFundMe was set up with an original goal of $5,000 to help support the family. It has surpassed the mark and was at over $16,000 Sunday morning.

Solomon and his wife were nurses in the Charleston area, where he worked as a critical care nurse at  Ralph H. Johnson VA Medical Center where Mimi has continued working.

“He liked to be with the people that he loved…he was always making sure that we were safe and we were cared for no matter who it was,” Miller told the outlet. “He’s always been a fixer and someone who’s just drawn to helping other people.”

The couple had boarded the Icon of the Seas, the World’s largest cruise ship on March 30 in Miami, Florida and made stops in Costa Maya, Mexico and Roatan, Honduras before docking in Cozumel around 8 a.m.

The Best Free Things To Do Onboard Rhapsody Of The Seas

You can look forward to lots of included onboard activities when you choose to sail onboard rhapsody of the seas®️..

By Amanda Mesa | Published on April 1, 2024

Feeling in need of a vacation but trying to operate within a tight budget? You can plan an unforgettable getaway without taking a big financial hit. I’ve found that cruising is a great option for anyone who wants to enjoy all the perks of an all-inclusive escape without having to shell out big bucks for flights or a stay at an expensive resort. And if the thought of a larger-than-life cruise ship with a head-spinning list of features seems overwhelming to you, you’ll be pleased to know there are other smaller options out there that offer a simpler, more intimate vibe.

One of my favorites is Rhapsody of the Seas , a mid-sized ship that accommodates just 2,000 guests. Now, I’ve gone on my fair share of cruises, and I’ve found that this is the perfect number of people if you’re looking for a low-key, laid-back escape. Over the course of a few days, you’ll likely make some new friends — yet there’s still plenty of room to unwind on your own if and when you feel like it.

Rhapsody of the Seas is also one of the most budget-friendly ships I’ve ever sailed on. Most of the activities and experiences onboard this Vision Class ship by Royal Caribbean are included in your cruise fare — including access to the main pool and whirlpools, deck-side dance parties, the Rock Climbing Wall, late-night game shows and movie nights under the stars. The ship is also home to some of the cruise line’s top-rated culinary concepts — three of which are totally complimentary to cruise guests. Here are just some of top free things to do onboard Rhapsody of the Seas .

1. Delicious Dining During Breakfast, Lunch And Dinner

Let’s start with one of my top priorities — food. While every bite onboard Rhapsody of the Seas is delicious, those looking to stick to complimentary dining options will not be disappointed. The ship is home to Windjammer , a buffet-style favorite that serves crave-worthy flavors from around the globe all day long at no additional cost to you. Pop by in the morning to start your day with flaky European pastries, fluffy eggs Bhurji, made-to-order omelets and crispy-fried chicken and waffles. Drop in during lunchtime for freshly pressed paninis, tender carved meats, crisp salads, juicy burgers and a rotating selection of international fare. And at dinnertime, the lunch spread expands to encompass heartier entrees and even more international stations that change throughout your cruise. Another great perk? You don’t need a reservation to dine here.

There’s also the Main Dining Room . This is your go-to for formal dining onboard Rhapsody of the Seas . While the dress code isn’t super strict (this is a vacation, after all), people still enjoy showing up in their best resort wear — think summer dresses and wedges or linen slacks and button-downs — so the vibe always feels elevated. Like Windjammer, the menu here also features global fare with rotating dishes, so you can try something new each night of your cruise. The food at the Main Dining Room is also included in your cruise fare, though you will have to select a preferred seating time before you set sail.

Finally, there’s Park Café . This casual, always-bustling bistro offers deli classics like made-to-order salads, sandwiches stuffed with all your favorite meats, cheeses and toppings, steaming soups that always hit the spot and, of course, the Royal Kümmelweck — a roast beef sandwich that’s become a rite of passage among cruisers. Park Café is open for breakfast and lunch each day of your sailing. It’s definitely one of the best free places to eat on the ship if you want something fast and fresh in between pool sessions or other onboard activities.

Beyond the three complimentary dining options mentioned above, Rhapsody of the Seas  is also home to some amazing specialty restaurants — including the contemporary steakhouse, Chops Grille SM , the guest-favorite sushi spot, Izumi , the trattoria- style Giovanni's℠ Table and the ultra-VIP Chef’s Table experience. Dining at these specialty restaurants will cost you extra, but you can enjoy big savings by purchasing a Specialty Dining Package before or during your cruise.

2. A First-Rate Pool Scene With Plenty Of Surprise Happenings

If you’re traveling in tropical or Mediterranean climates — two regions Rhapsody of the Seas has sailed through — one of the best ways to spend a sea day is by the pool. The scene onboard this ship always exceeds expectations. During the morning, the vibe around the main pool and its surrounding whirlpools is chill and laid back, but as the day progresses, the ship’s cruise director ensures plenty of fun to keep guests engaged and entertained. Think dance competitions, live performers, bellyflop contests, prize-worthy challenges and more. And with so many chaise loungers available on the deck, you never have to worry about waking up early to claim a spot.

If you’re still craving zen vibes when the party starts up around the main pool, all you have to do is migrate to the Solarium. This adults-only hideaway onboard the ship has its own lagoon-like pool and whirlpools, and the atmosphere is always tranquil. Like the main pool, access is completely covered by your cruise fare. The Solarium also has a beautiful retractable crystal roof that allows you to swim, lounge and relax in any climate or weather. If you’ve opted to make your getaway an all-inclusive cruise vacation by purchasing a Specialty Beverage Package, you can enjoy free-flowing wine, ice-cold brews and your favorite cocktails from the nearby Solarium Bar at no additional charge.

6. More Ways To Make The Most Of Every Night Onboard

Dazzling theatrical shows aren’t the only way to spend an evening onboard Rhapsody of the Seas. If you’re in the mood for a more low-key night out, cozy up at one of the ship’s outdoor movie nights. They’re hosted on the pool deck beneath the stars, where a giant projector screen towers above the pool. The lineup usually ranges from old-school classics to current blockbusters — your Cruise Compass should show what’s playing on any given night. Or, if you want to laugh, head to a game show. Typically hosted by the cruise director, they pit contestants against each other in challenges like Love & Marriage, Battle of the Sexes and the adults-only Quest. Sign up to participate yourself or cheer on the brave contenders from the audience. Either way, you’re in for a hilarious night.

As you can see, Rhapsody of the Seas makes it easy to enjoy a budget-friendly vacation that feels like a million bucks. Whether you’re after chill vibes only, looking to get some thrills on or prefer a healthy balance of both, you’ll find that most of the best activities, experiences and even dining onboard the ship are free.
