Royal Caribbean (Certificate) Discount Gift Cards
How to use Royal Caribbean gift certificates
Royal Caribbean gift certificates are used to pay for cruise bookings.
Call Royal Caribbean at 1-866-562-7625 to apply your certificate to a new or existing reservation. You can use multiple certificates on a single booking and pay any remainder with a credit card.
These work for all Royal Caribbean itineraries including Caribbean, Alaska, Europe, and world cruises.
Royal Caribbean certificates only work for Royal Caribbean International. They don't work on Celebrity Cruises, Silversea, or other brands in the Royal Caribbean Group.

How to check your Royal Caribbean gift card balance
Royal Caribbean is sold as a certificate, so there is no balance to look up. The face value applies to a new booking only and is redeemed by emailing your reservation.
For other brands, our guide on how to check any gift card balance covers the steps for every major retailer.
What the savings look like
Royal Caribbean cruises range from $1,500 for short sailings to $10,000+ for suites and longer voyages. Check the current discount above. At those price points, buying certificates at a discount can save you enough to cover drink packages or shore excursions.
Earning Crown & Anchor Society points
Royal Caribbean's Crown & Anchor Society loyalty program tracks your cruise history by nights sailed. Your loyalty tier and perks are not affected by how you pay. Booking with gift certificates earns the same loyalty credit as any other payment method.
What happens if you cancel
If you cancel a cruise paid with certificates, the refund follows Royal Caribbean's cancellation policy. Refundable amounts are typically returned to the original payment method or as future cruise credit.
Also cruising with other lines?
We carry discounted gift cards for Carnival, Princess Cruises, Holland America, Celebrity Cruises, and Disney Cruise Line. Each cruise line's gift cards only work for that specific line.
