The world’s largest cruise ship has officially embarked on its maiden voyage. Royal Caribbean’s Star of the Seas departed from Port Canaveral, Florida, on August 31, carrying more than 5,000 passengers across 20 decks. A sister ship to the Icon of the Seas, the Star is designed as a floating city, divided into eight neighbourhoods featuring 40 bars and restaurants, a lush park with 30,500 plants, and seven pools—including a 12-metre surf simulator. It also hosts Category 6, the largest waterpark at sea, boasting six record-setting slides, such as the tallest drop slide, the first open free-fall waterslide, and two raft slides.
Entertainment options range from the Back to the Future musical, complete with a replica flying DeLorean, to a rock-climbing wall, laser tag, skywalk, gaming lounge, karaoke, cinema, mini golf, and ice shows at the onboard arena. Guests can also enjoy a music hall, casino, fitness centre, Starbucks café, spa, and even an escape room.
The seven-night journey will include stops in the Caribbean and the Bahamas, with ticket prices starting at £745.
