    Royal Caribbean

    is heading south, but in a good way. On December 16, 2007, the

    Legend of the Seas

    will sail out of a new homeport: Santo Domingo in the Dominican Republic. The ship will sail alternating seven-night Caribbean itineraries. Ports-of-call included in these itineraries are St. Maarten, Dominica, Grenada, Aruba, St. Kitts, Guadaloupe, Martinique, Barbados, St. Lucia, and Margarita Island, Venezuela.

    The

    Splendour of the Seas

    will travel even farther, cruising in South America between December 20, 2007, and mid-February, 2008. The ship will sail alternating six- and eight-night itineraries from Santos/Sao Paulo, Brazil, and call at Buenos Aires, Argentina; Punta Del Este, Uruguay; Rio de Janeiro, Portobelo, Buzios, Cabo Frio, Angra Dos Reis, and Ilhabela, Brazil.

    In mid-February, the

    Splendour

    will become Royal Caribbean's first ship to sail around the horn (or tip) of South America. It will run 13- and 15-night cruises between Buenos Aires or Santos and Valparaiso, Chile.
