Check out the World's Largest, Most Expensive Cruise Ship!
tags:
Stumble ThisIn December, travelers will be able to board a $1.4 billion ship five years in the making.
After five years of planning and construction, Royal Caribbean is unveiling the Oasis of the Seas, a $1.4 billion ship that will be the largest and tallest cruise liner in the world when it takes its maiden voyage this December.
At 1,184 feet from stem More..to stern, it's nearly as long as the Empire State building is tall--while rivaling the amenities of any world-class Las Vegas resort. A crew of roughly 2,160 will man 18 decks and tend to 5,400 passengers (assuming two per room).
It's in the DNA of our company, about every 10 years, to take more or less a fresh sheet of paper and create the greatest cruise ship in the world," says Adam Goldstein, CEO of Royal Caribbean International.
The laundry list of amenities is daunting: a central park the length of a football field with 12,000 plants and trees; a boardwalk with two rock-climbing walls; an aqua theater with dive performances; two FlowRiders for surfing; a full-service spa and a main theater where the Broadway musical Hairspray will be shown four times a week. As an avid runner and sports enthusiast, Goldstein's favorites include the 600-plus meter jogging track on deck 3 and the zipline across the boardwalk.

Pity that this, and most of the other videos on their site, include renders rather than actual video of the ship... THAT is what I want to see

I see you've played shippy-planey before!
Its intresting , but it somehow seems like a place to send muderurs and paedophiles , like some sort of 2080 future prison. where all people on board have devices on them that instantly give out the deth penalty if they misbehave
Is this what prison's like in Great Britain, Westy?
