Якою миццю володіє капітан цього монстра , не дивлячись на всю комп'ютерну начинку ! Ух !
I lived for 2 months this year in Turku, I saw the construction of this ship from the inside. I'm from the Royal group and it was a wonderful experience living these months in Finland consuming your culture and arts. I'm Brazilian and I loved the experience next to the Meyer during the construction of Icon

,, pues mi hijo también está trabajando en el icon of the Seas y lleva desde octubre hasta ahora que está en Cádiz y luego rumbo a Miami a Ford Lauderdale para que en enero que es cuando llega el barco que sale el 23 de diciembre aproximadamente de Cádiz haga su primer viaje desde Miami en enero rumbo a su primer viaje al Caribe para disfrute de todos los pasajeros barco maravilloso no me extraña qué hayas quedado satisfecho e impresionado mi hijo al igual que tú está maravillado tanto de Finlandia de turco como del barco que es una auténtica pasada y maravilla según me ha dicho mi hijo estoy segura que los pasajeros que se monten en ese barco hacer un viaje van a disfrutar a tope

"the speed she was moving at" - Now, now. We can't be sure it's a 'she' and even if it was she could be non-binary, so I think it would be respectful to say they/them/theirs. "The speed they were moving at". Of course, if you believe all that bloody nonsense!

I mean, it's still a modern engineering marvel to build such a large ship and put that many people inside it, but yeah, for me, it's still a glorified floating hotel/shopping center that can be crammed up to the brim! But some people find hotels, shopping centers, and rubbing shoulder to shoulder in corridors exciting, so there's that too!!

@@izzyrov5814 Even if it's not full, it's the experience that I don't feel like paying for! Being inside a ship for so long is not the kind of place I personally associate with either vacation, interesting or fun, which generally fall into 3 categories: -natural places & cultural places (like world heritage sites); -themed places: ski resorts, amusement parks etc. The only kind of cruise experience I could see myself doing is something like descend the Nile river on a small boat; a dozen other people max; and able to stop wherever and whenever I want with no tight schedule... or tour the Mediterranean also in the same kind of conditions: small boat, a dozen other people; able to stop wherever and whenever I want and for how long I want!
This is beautiful en very huge, congratulations to the engineers
What a majestic ship. Good work to all that had a hand building a magnificent boat. The BIGGEST & THE BADDEST on the water.
How can you really relax on that ship? Its like going to disney world for a peaceful day.

I want to leave the rat race of the city for a relaxing vacation. I don't want to take the city with me on vacation, but to each his own.

She is a beauty! I can't wait to see her in person one day for a family cruise out of Florida!
