Royal Caribbean: Fall Frenzy Closes Today — But a New $100 Short Getaway Kicker Just Landed
Two of the offers we've been counting down close today, and Royal Caribbean has already put something new in their place — smaller savings, but stretched across a much longer booking window than what it's replacing.
Today: Fall Frenzy Sale and Flash Deals close
Both the Fall Frenzy Sale (up to $125–$900 per stateroom depending on cabin type and sailing length) and Flash Deals close today, September 22, for sailings that had departed or were departing from September 18, 2026 onward. If you were sitting on a fall cruise priced under either of these, today's the last day to lock it in at that rate.
New: $100 Short Getaway Kicker
Right behind it, Royal Caribbean has launched the $100 Short Getaway Kicker — a smaller instant discount, but one that covers a much wider range of sailings. It's bookable now through September 24 and applies to 5-night-or-less sailings departing September 18, 2026 through April 30, 2027: $25 per stateroom for Interior, Ocean View, and Balcony cabins, and $100 per stateroom for Suites. It won't match what Fall Frenzy paid out on a per-stateroom basis, but it's live for more than seven months of sailings rather than a single fall window — worth a look if you've got a short cruise in mind for anytime between now and next spring and haven't booked yet.
Still running through October 5
BOGO60 (60% off the second guest's cruise fare) continues to cover sailings from September 4, 2026 onward. Kids Sail Free still waives fare for children 12 and under on 3+ night sailings departing September 16, 2026 onward (holidays excluded), and Free 3rd & 4th Guest continues to zero out fare for a stateroom's third and fourth occupants on sailings through August 20, 2027. All three remain bookable through October 5 and stack with each other, plus Crown & Anchor and eligible resident/military/senior discounts.
Standing offers
The Early Booking Bonus ($50 onboard credit) remains open for bookings made through December 31, 2026, on sailings booked at least 7 months out (5 nights or less) or 9 months out (6+ nights). Last Minute Cruises continue to offer reduced pricing on specific near-term departures and can be combined with Free 3rd & 4th Guest, Kids Sail Free, and Crown & Anchor discounts. Double Points for Crown & Anchor members closed for new bookings on September 21 as previously reported.
The bottom line
If a fall cruise was riding on Fall Frenzy or Flash Deals pricing, today's the day to finalize it. If you missed that window or your dates fall later in the year, the new Short Getaway Kicker is worth pricing out on a short sailing anytime between now and next April — it's a smaller discount, but it isn't going anywhere for months.
Taxes, fees, and port expenses apply on top of quoted fares, and combinability rules vary by promotion — this reflects what's live as of September 22, 2026.
