Where it costs you

  • −The $99 Royal ONE Plus gets the bigger 60,000-point offer and richer perks

The Compound Verdict

Bank of America and Royal Caribbean replaced the tired old Visa in March 2026 with the Royal ONE family, and legacy Royal Caribbean and Celebrity cardholders are being converted starting June 2026. The no-fee version is finally competitive thanks to everyday categories, though the bonus has dropped from the 45,000-point launch offer to 30,000. Cruisers who sail every year should look at the Plus tier with its 60,000-point offer and richer onboard perks.
