Do you know which is the world's largest
cruise ship?
The ocean liner
Queen Mary II is six metres longer but 15m narrower than the
Freedom of the Seas, which will be based in Miami, Florida.
The Queen Mary II remains the largest ocean liner as compared to
the Freedom of the Seas which is the largest cruise ship.
Royal Caribbean Freedom of the Seas Cruise
Ship
The Freedom of the Seas is the
largest cruise ship. She is called an
Ultra-Voyager because she is an extension of the Royal Caribbean
International (RCI) Voyager of the Seas class. The ship's
extra length and size has enabled RCI to include lots of
exciting options never seen on a cruise ship before such as a
surfing pool, cantilevered whirlpools that extend 12 feet beyond
the sides of the ship, and waterpark, rock-climbing wall,
with eleven routes and a central spire you can swing around.
Passenger Capacity: 3,634.
