Independence of the Seas delivers exceptional value at $107/night median—the lowest pricing we track—with interiors dropping to just $40/night. This Freedom-class ship received a major 2018 amplification adding the world's first trampoline park at sea, laser tag, and water slides, keeping the 17-year-old vessel surprisingly current while maintaining budget-friendly rates.
Sailing year-round from Miami with Caribbean itineraries plus Perfect Day at CocoCay, Independence's smaller size (160,000 tons) offers a more intimate feel than Oasis-class giants. Perfect for families seeking modern thrills, complimentary fish & chips honoring the ship's British heritage, and unbeatable value.
