The world’s biggest cruise ship is almost ready
A vessel that’s set to be the world’s biggest cruise ship has completed construction at a shipyard in Finland and has made its first foray into open water for sea trials ahead of likely delivery in October this year. Royal Caribbean International’s Icon of the Seas is a mammoth 365 meters long and will weigh a projected 250,800 tonnes. For comparison, that’s like trying to keep two CN Towers afloat.
“During her first set of sea trials, Icon of the Seas traveled hundreds of miles, during which the main engines, hull, brake systems, steering, noise, and vibration levels were all tested,” the statement said. “Everything was done on time as outlined in the schedule, despite her departure being delayed due to wind conditions.” ‘The perfect home base’ The ship promises more than 40 ways to dine, drink and be entertained, many of which are included in the cruise fare.
