The most gorgeous liners. The world's largest ocean liner
Imagine that you go to a free cruise on the largest liner in the world. Inside the whole metropolis of entertainment and services, and all for free. Fantasy? Yes. But one day, when the planet parade occurs, the company launches a new ship, this fairy tale becomes reality. Tour operators, media and all who will be sold to this liner subsequently on this liner are invited to the first flight.
Harmony of the Seas (Harmony of the Seas) today is really the largest cruise liner at 8,200 people, of which 2,200 crew members. The height of the vessel is comparable with a height of a 20-storey building. Length 362 meters, which exceeds the length of Red Square in Moscow. The construction of the liner was rooyal caribbean in more than 1,000,000,000 euros.
But the most impressive non-measurement, and the filling of the liner is a helicopter area, swimming pools, water slides, casino, theater, ice rink, a garden with 12 thousand different plants and much more. On board even there is Bionic Bar, where robots work as waiters. Let's see how it looks inside ...
Common liner plans. This is a really huge thing, a giant none ark with displacement of 227,500 tons:

We left the port of Barcelona. We had two firefighters: in honor of the first navigation, they arranged "salute" from water cannons:

The first place where you get in a cruise is, of course, the cabin. I will not lead the Metage, I will only mention that there was a separate dressing room in my cabin:

On board there are pedestrian streets. The complete feeling that the ship did not come to the sea, but a piece of mainland. There are a lot of people. After a number of incidents on ROYAL CARIBBEAN cruises, the advanced face recognition system capable, if necessary, identify each passenger in the crowd:

On the stern of the ship a huge aquateater. From the top deck down, two pipes lead along which you can go down in clothes. Feels like - very quickly, very scary and very dark. Almost 30 meters of height overcome in 13 seconds, making 360 degrees along the way:

It is often said that cruises are a lot of European pensioners. However, the situation changes, and companies are increasingly focused on middle-aged people and young people. Disco, good restaurants, fitness, shopping and beach holidays are really sorrowfully and saturated.
By the way, last year I, too
Impressive dimensions, aesthetic appearance and all amenities for living have the biggest cruise liners. They are considered huge waterfowl "houses" capable of boostering the sea and oceans in the world. The list of 10 liners is discussed in detail - from the smallest and old, to a more modern and really giant model.
The ship is an "old man." Its length is 250 m. Summer 2003 (the date of creation) of the year liner was very famous. About the crystal wrote articles. His dimensions 15 years ago amazed water travel lovers. Inside cozy and comfortable.
People can relax on the "crystal serenity", walking on the evening dinner, relax in the SPA center, to do fitness and maintain a figure.
Only secured people can get on the LUX class crystal. But the hospitality on the swimming "city" and the comfort justified the tools spent. Liner survived several restorations. The last time the ship was improved in 2013. About $ 16 million went to modernization. The amount for all improvements is about $ 115 million.
Today, about 1070 people can fit on the crystal, which can be evenly separated by 550 cabins. The largest cruise liner in the world has several outdoor pools, a specially designated place to occupy fitness, a SPA center and 2 jacuzzi. Even on the vessel there is a playground for playing golf. Separately in another room there is table tennis and 2 courts.
For fun there is a casino, clubs. For shopaholics - boutiques with clothes. Several bars are located next to restaurants, for connoisseurs of expensive elite whiskey. For 15 years, the crystal has become an entertainment club for tourists with various interests. More often, people are resting on it for 40 who know the lot in all the pretty of travel around the seas and oceans.
The ship is able to go to around the world, fight calm and violent waters. In winter, 2017, the crystal went to a large tour of the last 3 months. He sailed from Miami to South America. Geography lovers have purchased tickets in advance.
Their cost - from $ 35 to $ 53 thousand (depends on the number). People who have time to buy a ticket in the fall of 2016 (4.5 months before the start of Tours) - Lucky. Until the end of August, the price was significantly reduced.
Queen Mary 2.
Translated - Queen Marie. Creation date - 2004. From the first day after descent to water, the vessel is considered the leader among peers. In the winter of 2003, an emergency occurred during the ship's construction. He stood on the shipyard, the ladder collapsed. 15 builders died. Another 30 were seriously injured.
Interesting! Queen Marie is the only liner who transports royal mail.
In the winter of 2007, the liner sailed in a circular floating duration of 80 days. The number of people on board is only 500. The cost of the ticket is $ 100 thousand. The journey brought into the Guinness Book of Records as the cruise of the largest ship for passengers.
In 2015, the Queen was renovated by spending $ 120 million. Changed the appearance. After that, Marie is considered the most stylish ship in the world. The cabins furnished in taste, guests admire: "As in a five-star hotel!". The vessel has 12 decks for passengers, 1300 cabins in which more than 3 thousand people can fit. Crew - 1250 people.
Initially, the liner introduced a dress code. Swimwear is allowed to wear only by the pool. Evening dresses and costumes are appropriate in restaurants or while walking. If you wish to spend time in a cafe, it is better to wear a T-shirt and shorts.
More often on the queen on travel, young couples and families with children are departed. Sometimes they take pets to boom oceans. But it is allowed that at the same time there are no more than 25 animals on board. Cruise in 7 days in Canada and America will be released at $ 1,000 (when choosing chamber cabins). Luxury rooms are above $ 2 thousand.
Britannia.
In 2015, after the last restoration, Britain's liner went to the first journey. 2 months before the start of the cruise, the Queen Elizabeth itself was attended at the ceremony of the first descent. She also blessed the ship. This is the 5th board, which dubbed the queen of Britain. The company spent 2 billion dollars to it. The ship accommodates 4.1 thousand people and 1.2 thousand crew.
Liner has:
- 16 decks;
- 3 atrium;
- theatre;
- 4 pools;
- museum with works of art (about 1 million copies)
- almost 2 thousand rooms.
Britain is suitable for family couples with children. Cabins are big, have several beds. The suites are additionally installed sofas beds. Employees at the beginning of the journey warn that it is forbidden to leave children unattended. Thanks to the class "Standard" price per ticket average. For the cabin without a window - $ 800 for 10 days of travel.
Carnival Vista.
"Newbie" first descended in the summer of 2016. He was thought out to the smallest detail. For children and adults on the deck installed aquapark. The ship is designed for married couples. The number of cabins - 1825. The liner surprises with passengers with colored slides (they will suit extreme lovers and children from 7 years). The ship accommodates 4.7 thousand people (not including crew members - 1.3 thousand).

Restaurants provide diet food. Fitness center will help to remain in shape. There are no single cabins, but there are special rooms for disabled guests.
The cabins have a minibar, air conditioning, TV and even safe. Wireless Internet and washing - for a fee. Minus - no ironing board or specially designated for this room. Travelers found a flaw in the kitchen - portions are small, it is impossible to quench the hunger. The menu is not diverse.
Separately noted the dress code - it is too strict. In shorts and T-shirt, it is forbidden to enter restaurants even during the daytime. In 2018, the owner listened to tourists, changed the menu in restaurants, diversified it. But the dress code remained invariably strict.
Vista is the first liner, on board which a large cinema was installed. But for the session you need to make an additional fee. The main travel route is America. Only in the fall of 2017, the liner sailed into the European tour through Spanish cities. The price for 1 ticket is $ 1 thousand per person for a small cabin.
QUANTUM OF THE SEAS
The biggest cruise liner in the world was lowered at the end of 2014. The scale is amazed: the length is 350 m, the width is 40 m. The creators have come up with each cabin to install a virtual reality balcony, which is a KKRAN 80 inches, behind it - the projection of the type overboard.

The vessel is suitable for both family couples and older people. Long tours - 5 days. The minimum cost for the cabin without the window is $ 850. This supplement to the interior is inexpensive - $ 23.
Norwegian Escape.
The appearance of the Norwegian vessel was waiting for people who love to leave for a trip with relatives. The liner is huge and safe. He fell into the top five ships that are suitable for family holidays.
For the first time, the Norwegian escape was launched in the fall of 2016 in the fall. Its length is 335 m. The ship is called a small town that can accommodate 4.8 thousand people (of which 1700 - crew). In restaurants, cafes, entertainment centers are formed huge queues that tire visitors. But instead of queues, you can soak in a large pool or jacuzzi.
The spa zone was upgraded, improved the appearance, added a salt room with aromatic candles, also a snowy room and a thermal pool.
A huge plus is the presence of single cabins and rooms for disabled. All 2 restaurants and 8 bars are placed around the ship. There is a children's pool, a special room for children. Additionally, you can order nanny services (the cost is included in the ticket).
The largest cruise liner in the world has 15 decks on which the water park and the rope park is installed. The price for a double room with a window is $ 600 per person (for a 6-day cruise). Without windows - $ 100 cheaper. The cost for the single room is 2 times cheaper by the liner floats through the Caribbean Sea, starts his way from Miami ..
The World
On board the ship can only be accessed by Turkuvice. "Peace" multi-storey. An interesting decision was taken during construction - to make everyone living on the ship the full owner of the cabin, and not just a tenant of the room. This came up with the owner of the ship - Knud Kloster in 2002.
The first 130 cabins repented rich. They had an insane idea of \u200b\u200bthe shipowner at moral. About 75% of the rooms were repaid before the end of construction. Provided people did not scare the price per cabin - from $ 2.5 to $ 9 million. Total residences 165 (of which 105 apartments, the rest are studios, one-room "Khrushchevki").
The vessel has 12 decks for passengers. The higher the cabin, the higher the prestige of the owner. Kyuti called a full-fledged apartment with a bathroom, a balcony, a kitchen and a bedroom, difficult. On average, the number takes 200 sq.m.
Room owners can manage them at their own request. Some lease, and many remain living on a liner for years, traveling through various cities. Every morning people enjoy a new type of window.
The length of the "World" - 200 m. Width - 30 m. The vessel was equipped with a hall for training, huge pools, tennis courts, cycling tracks. Nobody announces the names of expensive cabins. But by rumors Arnold Schwarzenegger and Madonna acquired on their own waterfowl "apartment" on a large liner.
A little more than 200 owners can be on the ship. Every year they pay for service, cleaning in the rooms. The cost of 365 days is $ 65 thousand depends on the size of the cabin. Interesting! Since 2002, the vessel visited 140 countries of the world.
Oasis of the seas

Length "Giant" - 370 m. Width - 68. The demand for cabins is high. Many want to go to a cruise on this liner. The number of cabins - 2710. The team on the ship copes with the timely feeding of dishes in restaurants, also time to feed the crew in time.

On the liner placed real trees in a mini-park. It has survived after the restoration of the ship in 2014. When the oasis arrives at the port, 1/3 people do not even go ashore. Up to 8 people can be placed in the room. There are no water and dry slides, but there are 14 elevators, 11 bars, 2 large cinema and 7 restaurants. On the liner even installed a chapel, which is not on many ships.
There are no single rooms - the ship is designed for large families. You can see the ice show, Broadway musical or stand-up (necessarily the perfect knowledge of English). In the summer in 2019, the "oasis" again swollen the Mediterranean Sea and will make 2 stops in Barcelona and Rome.
Interesting fact. Among the crew members are many Russians.
Due to the huge number of passengers, you have to pre-book tickets to the theater. Exotic dishes are also ordered a few days before meals. For a seven-day trip with a person take $ 700.
Allure of the seas
This giant is considered a twin "Oasis". Their parameters coincide. Only 45 mm length is greater. "Marine charm" has 15 decks, 2700 cabins and 2.5 thousand crew members.
A huge city on the water is considered the entertainment center, which includes:
- several large restaurants with a varied menu;
- 3 bowling;
- many cafes;
- specially designated climbing place;
- zipline;
- SPA center;
- playground for basketball and volleyball;
- fitness facilities;
- 3 swimming pools with beautiful waves.
Cruises are designed for the elderly. The "marine charm" has Starbax on the entertainment list, where the 1930s parties often pass. This is done so that 70% of passengers can remember youth. Ocean demonstrate Music Mamma Mia!
White liner floats through the Mediterranean. Some Russians and Belarusians were able to relax on the ship. The vessel is divided into 7 zones. Because of this, tourists do not have a feeling of "cramming" and discomfort. There is also no confusion. Each chooses a zone by moral: sports, entertaining, game (casino), calm for reading, shopping and other.
In 2014, the twin "Oasis" survived modernization. All improvements failed to taste with new passengers of the cruise liner. In 2015, the ship again went on a tour of the Caribbean Sea. Price for 7 days of cruise - $ 700 - ordinary cabin. $ 1.5 thousand - suite.
Harmony of the seas

There are single rooms with an area of \u200b\u200b9 sq.m.
The largest cruise liner in the world is harmony or sea symphony. The maximum area of \u200b\u200b2-storey luxury luxury rooms - 140 sq.m. On several decks there are two "dry" slides and three water, for extreme lovers. The height is huge - measuring multi-storey houses - reaches up to 9 floors. To descend, passengers give felt mattresses. Feelings are incredible, one time is worth riding for bright memories.
Passenger capacity - 6.5 thousand, and crew members - 2.3 thousand places for free show in the evenings, you must book 3-4 weeks before the trip.
A huge vessel area allows you to forget about the location in the ocean. An abundance of entertainment gives time to pass. It is impossible to get around all cafes, restaurants, boutiques and so on for a week. Many acquire tickets to once again visit the liner and completely bypass it, see all the sights, places.
Since September 2016, "Sea Harmony" has taken a course on the Mediterranean, visited Spain and Italy. The price for the cabin without windows from $ 2 thousand. Additionally, you will have to make a fee in the port fee ($ 95). Every day you need to pay tip waiters (minimum $ 9). Alcohol, food in restaurants that are not listed in the "base", excursions on the shore, entertainment will also have to pay for their own money

The maximum number of people accommodates the leader "dozens" - "Harmony of the Seas". The smallest ship is "Crystal Serenity" (length - 250 m, width - 32 m). But people who often travel on liners, no matter how big or small ship. They are important atmosphere that reigns on the vessel and old dating with the crew members.
Family couples prefer a relaxing rest on Norvegian Escape liner or on an "oasis". In the first there are cabins, designed for 8 people (perfectly suitable for a large family). On the second, you can meet members of the crew of any nationality, be it an Englishman or Frenchman, or Russian. Number of nationalities - more than 70.
With ignorance of any language, there is always a person who will help. The staff is very friendly. Older people are real connoisseurs of furniture, music, atmosphere from the 50s will prefer Crystal Serenity to other liners. Comfort and comfort always reign on board. You can get off nostalgia or relax for playing poker.
Some buy a ticket to the oldest and large (at that time) cruise liner in the world in which the tour lasts up to 3 months, for the time to chat with other people, and maybe make new acquaintances.
You can also spend evenings at the bar counter, communicating with the bartender-robot (on the Quantum of the Seas). After all, travelers are divided into 2 types: those who want to relax, and those who are not going to relax.

Video about the largest cruise liner
The largest cruise liners around the world:
Imagine the Las Vegas Quarter, which sails from the city to the city. Imagine a ship at 7,500 people, of which 2500 are employees and staff. Add to them ice rink, volleyball and basketball courts, golf course, bowling room, climbing wall, fitness center, spa, endless pools and you get the largest cruise liner in the world - Allure of the seas.
The cruise liner is, in fact, somewhat independent of the enterprises. One team is engaged in navigating, the other hotel and accommodation, the third feeds daily thousands of people, the fourth suits and holds entertainment and so on. The vital activity of such a marine monster is very complex and interesting. I want to tell about this in today's post ...
It was my 15th or 16th cruise. I remember, even on big ships, I sometimes darkened me. There is no feeling that you are in the open sea. Mahina is so huge that no pitch is not felt. We walked into the six-box storm, the waves were 4.2 meters high. The ship was immobile, as if the Egyptian pyramid:
3. 
On each floor and in each lobby there are original schemes and pointers. All that is allocated white - hotel, purple zones - public:
4. 
Upper deck:
5. 
Public places are a lot. It is impossible to get around everything:
6. 
The liner is two parallel homes, interconnected by jumpers - in front and rear. Between them empty space with a green zone. On the roofs of "houses" pools and sun beds:
7. 
The pools are a lot, for every taste and color. There are adults, children, with slides, fountains, jacuzzi, etc.:
8. 
Mini golf:
9. 
Basketball and volleyball court:
10. 
There are several zones with tables for ping pong:
11. 
Zip Line - high-speed cable descent on one side of the ship to another:
12. 
There are two "waves" on which you can ride on the sep. One for beginners, the other for more or less advanced:
13. 
14. 
On the upper deck there are "wings", which come from the liner housing to the sides. In the wings of 2 large jacuzzi. You are in warm water at an 18th floor altitude over the sea, and you look at the waves under you. Very cool:
15. 
Ship's nose. Several decks are given under public zones. The design of the canopies is such that the maximum protects against the wind, while maintaining the feeling of open space:
16. 
On the nose of the ship three pools:
17. 
18. 
Now let's see what is located between the "houses" of this liner. On the stern there is a carousel, bar, park, distance the cinema:
19. 
In the evening, the cinema is acting acrobats like a circus du Soleil. Very cool. I thought to go and make a couple of photos for the report, but I was able to open the mouth to the end of the show:
20. 
In the other side of Central Park - open space with trees and plants at 8 floors:
21. 
The green area is separated by a jumper into two sections:
22. 
Let's go down to the 8th floor:
23. 
Glass roofs are provided for a pleasure zone, which is located three floors below. There are streets, birds sing - the full feeling that you walk in the city:
24. 
In this zone are well-known international restaurants and shops. We will back to them back in the following post:
25. 
Feed ship. There are two walls for climbing. Mountaineering, Karl!
26. 
Bars in Central Park:
27. 
Cinema:
28. 
The deck at the level of the fifth floor goes to the rescue boats. She goes throughout Lainee, and here withdraw people with freelance situations. So that the place does not disappear in vain, it is used as a treadmill. So often the passengers of large ships come, but only here they specifically stated tracks for running and sports walking. It is consistent even the direction in order not to face each other. Full range of 700 meters:
29. 
The ship's nose is engaged in the helicopter platform, passengers do not let go there. Planning the scene from the "Titanic" will not work:
30. 
Fifth floor under Central Park. Shops, bars with karaoke, even Starbax:
31. 
Rarity car to give the space of chic and luxury:
32. 
The fourth floor is casino and nightclubs. Gambling places are open only when the liner leaves the territorial water of a state or another. The port does not work:
33. 
Central Hall for Show and Concerts:
34. 
There is no excursion to the captain's bridge, but I was lucky to sail along with the group of Spanish journalists. Their visit was agreed and I managed to fit the company. The captain's bridge looks empty. A huge area, but the controls occupy only a small plot of the center:
35. 
The ship is controlled by a captain, but the first officer. He spent a tour. Officer name is Gennady. He is from Odessa. Our cotton.
The ship has no steering wheel. Three engine screws rotate 360 \u200b\u200bdegrees, they are set either manually using three rotates (in the foreground of the photo), or using a computer. The system monitors the course and infants:

40. 
The command headquarters is located near and can be corrected from the captain of the partition. All air management bodies are duplicated here:
41. 
When the ship mooring in the port, the officer uses exits on "wings" to the left and right:
42. 
There is also a control system too:
43. 
Hence, the side of the liner is perfectly visible and it allows you to "park" without incidents:
44. 
In the next post, I will tell you what on the ship there are restaurants, shows and entertainment. Let's look closer. Stay Tuned!
Since ancient times, people have wandered around the seas, gradually improving their trial. Modern shipbuilding is very developed, and the range of vessels has become unusually diverse. But always pays special attention to the top of the biggest ships in the world, which will be discussed below.
1. SEAWISE GIANT (Knock Nevis)
Deadweight - 564 700 tons.
. Length - 458.5 m.
. Year of construction - 1979.
. Last Country Registration: Sierra Leone. Disassembled on scrap metal.
The largest ship in the world until 2010 was the Knock Nevis SuperTanker, built in 1975 in the Japanese city of Yokosuka. Before changing several names, he had a simple number 1016.
