I performed a google search and came up with nothing. Where is the official announcement? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.23.16.77 (talk) 08:53, 2 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ships in service

[edit]

This article has a list on the bottom of Royal Caribbean Ships in service. As this vessel is not yet in service it seems premature to add that.

There is also a succession box for world's largest ship. As this vessel has not yet been rated, and is of the same class as Freedom of the Seas, it is inaccurate to state that this ship is larger than her classmates. Kablammo 02:56, 22 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Now rated. Same size as others in class, 154,407 GT per classification society. Kablammo (talk) 02:51, 2 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Picture

[edit]

Should that picture be used? It's of the MS Freedom of the Seas, and I know they will be sister ships, but still. I saw an artists render or something somewhere that could be used. Splamo 19:03, 16 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I haven't seen a rendering yet, and if you would be so kind as to upload the one you saw, we could use it, but for now, there is not really much choice but to use the sistership picture. Michael Merali 19:58, 16 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'll be on the 28 June 2008 sailing. If no pix have been added by the time I get back, I will add some. Hopefully I will manage some interior shots as well. Hassocks5489 (talk) 20:21, 28 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Reads like and advert

[edit]

This page reads like an advert... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.235.52.82 (talk) 11:56, 15 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. The ship may be notable because of its size and range of facilities, but there's a fine line between reporting that and advertising it. IMHO this article crosses the line. (I've just seen it in Southampton and it does look impressive.) --Northernhenge (talk) 14:48, 30 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Would anyone object to me re-writing/reducing the stateroom section? That might help make it look less like an advert. --Northernhenge (talk) 14:53, 30 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I've now reduced the section. Any other ideas for making it less like an advert? --Northernhenge (talk) 11:27, 12 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, I would suggest including some objective facts and analysis (rather than just hype copied from the operator's PR puff pieces); based on a recent trip on the vessel (which I would agree is very impressive indeed) I would include a few comments about the impact of having some four thousand passengers on one cruise ship, all of them (it seemed) wanting to be in the same places at the same times of day.

Move discussion in progress

[edit]

There is a move discussion in progress on Talk:MS Symphony of the Seas which affects this page. Please participate on that page and not in this talk page section. Thank you. —RMCD bot 16:04, 6 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Do they have blow dryers in the rooms on the ship? 108.12.45.222 (talk) 13:02, 4 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
