Preview of the new show on Wonder of the Seas
It’s no secret that Royal Caribbean will be adding a new show to Wonder of the Seas this summer.
“Effectors 2” is the sequel to the show Effectors first seen on Spectrum of the Seas and Odyssey of the Seas. It’s a show based on Royal Caribbean’s own superhero team that uses sound and music to battle the forces of evil.
Royal Caribbean’s Senior Vice President of Entertainment Nick Weir tweeted a video update with a preview of the show.

Spectrum of the Seas will soon start sailing to Malaysia
Cruises from Singapore that do not sail to any port are about to change.
From June 30, Spectrum of the Seas will begin offering cruises to ports of call in Malaysia.
Royal Caribbean has announced that the ship will begin visiting Kuala Lumpur and Penang with its new three- and four-night itineraries.
“We are thrilled to be the first cruise line in Singapore to reconnect vacationers with the beautiful destinations of Asia once again,” said Angie Stephen, Royal Caribbean’s vice president and general manager, Asia-Pacific.
