i heard one of the reasons to go for bigger ship is because they generate greater revenue... sort of similar to commercial aircrafts where there is somewhat of a fixed cost associated with the crew.

oh the darn thing shouldn't sink because of ingenuity. They divide the spaces in the hull into section so in the event they have water coming into the ship, they seal off that section through doors to isolate that compartment.

And with the materials, titanic ripped open because the material was placed in cold water where the stress goes up and ductility goes down. so in another words, it would open like a can if something came gouged through it.

royal promenade is getting boring.. the boardwalk is what i want to see! =) GO RRCL!

Damn, thanks for posting this. I've been looking for pics/news of this event.

I wanna go on it one day!

If you've never been on a cruise ship before, the first time you step on board, it will blow you away. With so much stuff on board, it's hard to believe you're on a BOAT.

It was built in Finland and when it had to sail out of the main channel between Sweden and Denmark supposidely there were only 10 feet between the top of the boat and the bottom of the bridge that connects the two nations lol

They also said that they had to go at a speed well above normal tow speeds so that the boat would be deeper in the water to achieve that 10 feet lol

btw, anyone think 1.2 bill sounds fairly lean? I mean this thing is fuckin massive and the cowboys new stadium was a similar price

Wassup bitchesss, I'm posting this FROM THE OASIS OF THE SEAS right now! Free wifi ftw... without it i'd prolly be paying $80 just to post these pics...

The ship is frickin amazing, it feels more like a vegas hotel with indoor malls than a cruise ship... Some pics:

Royal Promenade:


A bar actually goes up and down 3 decks from here:


Boardwalk:


Johnny Rockets on the Boarwalk:


View from the pool/sportsdeck:


Full Boardwalk:


Onboard Zip-lining:


Flowrider Surfing:


Another neighborhood, central park:


Central park trail... they actually brought on and planted 2,500 plants the first week they arrived in Florida from Europe.


Anyways, It's 2am right now and I should head off, 2 more nights of excess to come! Hope you enjoyed my pics

It's complimentary on this inaugural...

Entire cruise is complimentary from Royal Caribbean for all passengers (travel partners), so no revenue at all lost :P

Ahhh ok I thought this was her actual maiden voyage... Lucky you got the invitation to go! One of the perks from being in the travel industry I guess!
