Jewel of the Seas: the one ship of her class in dry dock since 2024

Jewel of the Seas went to the Brest yard in May 2024. Her three sister ships — Radiance of the Seas, Brilliance of the Seas and Serenade of the Seas — have no documented refurbishment since their delivery, 23 to 25 years ago.

Same building yard, same generation, different upkeep. For a client comparing four ships almost identical on paper, that is the one criterion that really separates them.

One hundred and fifty-eight departures, the largest calendar outside the very large ships

Our 158 departures on Jewel split between Fort Lauderdale (120) and Tampa (36). That is the fourth largest calendar in the Royal Caribbean fleet, behind three much bigger ships.

One hundred and twenty departures at the same pier means a client chooses their date rather than bending their calendar to the ship. Fort Lauderdale is reached in about three and a half hours of direct flying from Montreal, with a short transfer to the pier.

The measurements

Delivered in 2004 by the Meyer Werft yard at Papenburg, Germany, Jewel measures 293 metres, is rated at 90,090 gross tons and has 12 decks, with 842 crew.

Our source gives 2,501 guests without specifying whether that is double occupancy or maximum capacity. We carry the figure as it stands. Only Brilliance of the Seas, in this class, has her capacity qualified: 2,140 at double occupancy, 2,543 maximum.

What the class brings

More than 12,000 square metres of glass, glazed exterior panoramic lifts, over 700 staterooms with a balcony, two-level dining rooms and a retractable roof above one pool. It is a class designed around natural light rather than around volume.

Propulsion is by gas turbines: cleaner in emissions, less economical in fuel, with documented trouble on several departures in the class in 2023 and 2024. The 2024 dry dock is precisely the kind of intervention that addresses such questions.

A format that compares poorly with the very large ships

At 90,090 tons, Jewel moves more than a 226,963-ton unit such as Harmony of the Seas. A traveller prone to seasickness should take that into account, particularly on open crossings.

In exchange, you walk less: 293 metres against 362.12. Over seven days the gap is measured in tens of minutes of walking per person, and it favours the smaller ship.

Who she suits

Travellers who want the Radiance class without the maintenance deficit, couples who prefer a human-scale format, and those looking for plenty of dates from Fort Lauderdale. A client who wants maximum steadiness should look at the Oasis class.

Our Royal Caribbean advisors confirm the exact fare, inclusions and applicable conditions before any booking, in line with Quebec consumer protection rules.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, at the Brest yard in May 2024. She is the only one of the four Radiance-class ships with a documented refurbishment; the other three have none in 23 to 25 years.
From Fort Lauderdale for 120 of her 158 departures, and from Tampa for 36 more. That is the fourth largest calendar in the Royal Caribbean fleet.
In about three and a half hours on a direct flight, followed by a short transfer to the pier. The transfer is never included by default and is arranged separately.
Our source gives 2,501 guests without specifying whether that is double occupancy or maximum capacity. We carry the figure as it stands rather than qualify it wrongly.
She measures 293 metres, is rated at 90,090 gross tons and has 12 decks, with 842 crew.
In 2004, at the Meyer Werft yard in Papenburg, Germany. She is the fourth and last ship of the Radiance class.
If the state of the spaces matters, yes. The four ships are almost identical on paper, and only Jewel has been in dry dock recently, at Brest in May 2024.
By gas turbines, like the whole Radiance class. Cleaner in emissions, less economical in fuel, with documented trouble on several departures in the class in 2023 and 2024.
More than 12,000 square metres of glass, glazed exterior panoramic lifts, over 700 staterooms with a balcony, two-level dining rooms and a retractable roof above one pool.
Less than a very large ship. At 90,090 tons she moves more than a 226,963-ton unit such as Harmony of the Seas, particularly on open crossings.
Yes. She measures 293 metres against 362.12 for Harmony of the Seas. Over seven days the gap is measured in tens of minutes of walking per person, in favour of the smaller ship.
Twelve decks, against 20 for an Icon-class ship. It is a human-scale format, designed around natural light rather than volume.
Yes, that is her main programme, with 120 departures from Fort Lauderdale and 36 from Tampa in our catalogue.
No. Fort Lauderdale and Tampa both require a flight. Of the 30 Royal Caribbean ships in service, only four sail from a drivable port from Montreal.
