Royal Caribbean Monarch of the Seas Southern Caribbean 90s Promo Video 

I took my first cruise on her in early 1997, Southern Caribbean just as shown in this video. It was a college graduation gift from my parents who went with me, though they'd been on several cruises already. This video stirred happy memories of that trip. I thought the ship was so beautiful and spacious. The first night as the ship sailed out of San Juan, I had my first pina colada from the Crown Lounge. The meals were all in the main dining room at the same table all week, so your waiter and assistant waiter came to know and serve you well. I had my first martini at the Captain's welcome, they were complimentary. The shows were awesome, on my cruise Bowser from Sha na na was the celebrity guest. It was a very impressive experience for me, and has made me a fan ever since.

imagine someone on this ship back in the early 2000s being shown the icon of the seas

Love these old videos! The old ships had a lot of charm.

RIP monarch

And any kid aboard this ship that you're looking at in this video that was at least 10 years of age is now in their 40s

Me and my family went on this cruise in 2004. We went from Florida to Nassau. Good memories.

Honeymoon on this ship in 1998. Great trip!

This was my first cruise as a kid with my grandparents.

And back then you never heard about fights happening aboard the ships it was a different type of cruising back then and some of the aspects of that type of cruise and I love to see come back

never sailed her but boy have times changed. you barely see the chefs anymore

What would be awesome is to take icon of the seas back to the late 80s and early 90s and pull up 21 of those sovereign class Royal Caribbean ships and see what they would think of the ship of the 21st century

Traveled on all the Sovereign class ships and the Legend and Grandeur at their beginning and the quality of the product then was first class food service and entertainment was excellent.RCCI started to fall away with the arrival of the Radience Class and then the Voyager class is when Royal Caribbean went into the floating resorts and lost their individual cruising experience.The ships got bigger and bigger and changed their customer base .The ports now are overcrowded and these modern experiences are not relaxing.

Being as tall as the Statue of Liberty really seemed to be a point all these lines liked to mention about their ships around this time lol.

Lol this is the 90s ❤️

I wish they have midnight buffets mow

Even though monarch of the seas is one of royal Caribbeans smallest ships, it was the biggest at its time.

Royal Caribbean should be proud of themselves because think about it MSC back then was sailing the Achille Lauro

This was my first cruise in back in 1997 xD

1990s Royal Caribbean: Welcome to our Sovereign Class cruise ship! It doesn't get better than this 2024 Royal Caribbean: Allow us to introduce to you the Icon Class

Oh wow, Royal

Yes sovereign of the sea's monarch of the seas and majesty of sea's Was the largest purpose built cruise ship at that time but it was built as an ocean liner and her name was SS Norway

I bet you could literally stick monarch of the seas right into the boardwalk of Oasis of the seas and fit the whole ship

All those kids are in their 40s almost approaching 50 now

What is wild is the youngest adults in this video are in their 50s now

Can we just visit sorentos

Olá 🇧🇷(could activate Portuguese subtitles please fan from Brazil)

How about specialty dining at azumi's oops this ship doesn't have it

Awesome ! Is there a chance to upload a video of voyager of the seas?

What about just a transatlantic cruise to England to visit English culture

When did they stop Tableside Preparation in the Main Dining Room?

I don't know I kind of like the decor of the late 80s early 90s but it is definitely dated

So could we use the ice skating ring on board monarch of the seas ha ha no ice skating ring on board

Is it me but all the passengers are white and all the servers are black

I guess people of color didn’t take cruises in the 90s. Didn’t see a single poc in this promo 😂.
