Over 900 TL Network members from across North America — including 60 from Canada — were on board for two back-to-back special trade sailings on Royal Caribbean International’s Wonder of the Seas this month.

“I’ve had the privilege of sailing on three Oasis class vessels previously and couldn’t believe that Royal could out do themselves but they proved me wrong,” Christine James, Vice President Canada for TL Network told PressToday. “Every venue, restaurant and public area has been taken to the next level. I thoroughly enjoyed our Perfect Day on Coco Cay. It was great to see all the upgrades that have been added since I was there three years ago.”

James believes the ship appeals to families of all ages.



“There’s great opportunity for our members to capitalize on the unprecedented demand for multi-generational travel that has emerged due to the pandemic,” she added. “Advise your clients to take advantage of all the ship has to offer. Don’t miss out on spectacular shows and entertainment onboard especially the Intense and ice shows. If you enjoy comedy, it was one of the best I’ve seen on any ship!”

Meanwhile, the trip marked the first ever cruise for travel advisor Jessy Samaroo of Northstar Travel.

“It was most definitely a wonder-ful experience,” she said. “Wonder of the Seas for sure has set a high standard on future cruising for me. From thrill rides to games, aquatic activities, mini golf, zip-lining, live shows and a Perfect Day at Coco Cay, this ship is geared for multi-generational families.”
