The largest cruise ships in the world. The world's largest ocean liner

Imagine a Las Vegas block that floats from city to city. Imagine a ship for 7,500 people, of which 2,500 are employees and staff. Throw in an ice skating rink, volleyball and basketball courts, golf course, bowling alley, climbing walls, fitness center, spa, infinity pools and you have the world's largest cruise ship, the Allure of the Seas.

A cruise liner is, in fact, several independent enterprises. One team is engaged in navigation, another in hotel and accommodation, the third feeds thousands of people every day, the fourth arranges and conducts entertainment, and so on. The life of such a sea monster is very complex and interesting. That's what I want to talk about in today's post...

This was my 15th or 16th cruise. I remember that even on large ships I sometimes got sick. Here, there is no feeling at all that you are in the open sea. The colossus is so huge that no pitching is felt at all. We went into a six-point storm, the waves were 4.2 meters high. The ship was motionless, like an Egyptian pyramid:

3.

There are original maps and signs on each floor and in each lobby. Everything highlighted in white is a hotel, purple areas are public:

4.

Upper deck:

5.

There are a lot of public places. It is impossible to bypass everything at once:

6.

The liner consists of two parallel houses, interconnected by jumpers - in front and behind. Between them is an empty space with a green zone. On the roofs of the "houses" pools and sun loungers:

7.

There are a lot of pools, for every taste and color. There are adults, children, with slides, fountains, jacuzzis, etc.:

8.

Mini golf:

9.

Basketball and volleyball court:

10.

There are several areas with ping pong tables:

11.

Zip Line - downhill on a cable from one side of the ship to the other:

12.

There are two "waves" that you can surf on. One for beginners, the other for more or less advanced:

13.

14.

On the upper deck there are "wings" that protrude from the hull of the liner to the sides. There are 2 large jacuzzis in the wings. You lie in warm water 18 floors above the sea and look at the waves below you. Very cool:

15.

The nose of the ship. Several decks have been given over to public areas. The design of the canopies is such that it protects from the wind as much as possible, while maintaining the feeling of open space:

16.

There are three pools on the bow of the ship:

17.

18.

Now let's see what is between the "houses" of this liner. At the stern there is a carousel, a bar, a park, a cinema in the distance:

19.

In the evening, acrobats perform shows like the Cirque du Soleil in the cinema. Very cool. I thought about going in and taking a couple of photos for the report, but I sat there with my mouth open until the end of the show:

20.

On the other side of Central Park - an open space with trees and plants at the level of the 8th floor:

21.

The green zone is divided by a jumper into two sections:

22.

Let's go down to the 8th floor:

23.

Glass roofs are provided for the walking area, which is located three floors below. There are streets here, birds sing - a complete feeling that you are walking in the city:

24.

This area is home to renowned international restaurants and shops. We will return to them in the next post:

25.

The stern of the ship. There are two walls for climbing. Mountaineering, Carl!

26.

Bars in Central Park:

27.

Cinema:

28.

The deck at the level of the fifth floor goes to the lifeboats. It goes all over the liner, and people are brought here in emergency situations. So that the place does not go to waste, it is used as a treadmill. Passengers of large ships often do this, but only here they specially marked out paths for running and walking. We even agreed on the direction so as not to collide with each other. Full circle 700 meters:

29.

The bow of the ship is occupied by a helipad, passengers are not allowed there. You won't be able to play the scene from Titanic:

30.

Fifth floor under Central Park. Shops, karaoke bars, even Starbucks:

31.

Rare car to give the space chic and luxury:

32.

Fourth floor - casinos and nightclubs. Gambling establishments open only when the liner leaves the territorial waters of a state. The port does not work:

33.

Central hall for shows and concerts:

34.

There is no excursion to the captain's bridge, but I was lucky to sail with a group of Spanish journalists. Their visit was agreed and I managed to cling to this company. The captain's bridge looks empty. A huge area, but the controls occupy only a small area in the center:

35.

The ship is not controlled by the captain, but by the first officer. He gave us a tour. The officer's name is Gennady. He is from Odessa. Our boy.

The ship has no rudder. The three propellers of the engine rotate 360 ​​degrees and are set either manually using three rotators (in the foreground of the photo) or using a computer. The system monitors the course and taxis:

36.

37.

38.

39.

40.

The command headquarters is located nearby and can be fenced off from the captain's cabin with a partition. Here are duplicated all the controls of the liner:

41.

When the ship is moored in the port, the officer uses the exits on the "wings" to the left and to the right:

42.

There is also a control system here:

43.

From here, the side of the liner is perfectly visible and this allows you to "park" without incident:

44.

In the next post I will tell you what restaurants, shows and entertainment are on the ship. Let's take a closer look at them. Stay Tuned!

Conclusion

This was an article about the most luxurious cruise ships in the world. Thank you for your attention!

Imagine that you are going on a free cruise on the largest ship in the world. Inside is a whole metropolis of entertainment and services, and everything is free. Fantasy? Yes. But one day, when the parade of planets takes place, the company launches a new ship, this fairy tale becomes a reality. Tour operators, the media and everyone who will subsequently sell tickets to this liner are invited to the first flight.

Harmony of the Seas is by far the largest cruise ship for 8200 people, of which 2200 crew members. The height of the ship is comparable to the height of a 20-storey building. The length is 362 meters, which exceeds the length of Red Square in Moscow. The construction of the liner cost Royal Caribbean more than 1,000,000,000 euros.


But the most impressive thing is not measurements, but the filling of the liner - a helipad, swimming pools, water slides, a casino, a theater, an ice rink, a garden with 12 thousand different plants and much, much more. There is even a Bionic bar on board, where robots work as waiters. Let's see what it looks like inside...

General plans of the liner. This is really a huge thing, a giant Noah's Ark with a displacement of 227,500 tons:

3.

4.

We left the port of Barcelona. We were escorted by two fire ships: in honor of the first voyage, they staged a "salute" of water cannons:

5.

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

6.

General areas of the liner. On the right in the photo is a giant head sculpture that rotates in layers in different directions:

7.

There are pedestrian streets on board. A complete feeling that it was not a ship that went into the sea, but a piece of the mainland. There are a lot of people. After a series of accidents on cruises, Royal Caribbean installed an advanced facial recognition system that can, if necessary, identify each passenger in the crowd:

8.

Many sculptures and works of modern art:

9.

Let's go up to the upper decks. There are two types of decks - indoor, comfortable in windy weather, and outdoor:

10.

There are 16 decks on board. 6 main pools and 10 giant jacuzzis:

11.

The upper deck is replete with public areas:

12.

Lots of loungers. Pay attention to the slides behind the pool:

13.

On the other side of the golf course:

14.

Waves for boarding:

15.

Rope crossing at the level of seven floors:

16.

At the stern of the ship is a huge aquatic theater. Two pipes lead down from the upper deck, through which you can go down in clothes. Feels very fast, very scary and very dark. You overcome almost 30 meters of height in 13 seconds, making two 360-degree turns along the way:

17.

To the right of the water theater is a pedestrian area called Central Park:

18.

19.

Naturally, there is a gym, and it is gigantic. Many simulators and shells:

20.

21.

There are 20 restaurants on board the Harmony of the Seas. The main one occupies three floors, it is there that daily dinners are held:

22.

And this is the same Bionic bar where robots work. There are 30 alcohol components in the arsenal of mechanical hands. The range of cocktails they can make is endless. One cocktail takes 30 seconds. Looks fantastic:

23.

Another memorable restaurant is called "Wonderland" and is based on the famous work of Lewis Carroll:

24.

Hall decoration:

25.

26.

Instead of a menu, they bring an empty picture that needs to be painted with water. After these manipulations, words appear. It would seem a trifle, but leaves an indelible impression:

27.

Molecular cuisine restaurant. The dish is called "Garden", and the "earth" is made of bread with the addition of cuttlefish ink:

28.

Balloon dessert topped with hot chocolate. After a minute, the ball melts, revealing the ice cream inside. Delicious:

29.

Every week, 4,500 kg of chicken and almost 7,000 kg of beef are consumed in the liner's restaurants. In total, there are 4,900 seats on board in restaurants and bars. The assortment of desserts again confused me:

30.

There are dozens of shops in Central Park for every budget:

31.

You won't be bored in the evening. Rather, on the contrary, you will need to run from one view to another:

32.

In the theater - a Broadway production of "Grease". The film of the same name, based on this musical, made Travolta a star already in 1978:

33.

Ice show. Just pay attention to the quality of the costumes that were prepared for the performance:

34.

35.

36.

37.

38.

Actors either swim, or fly, or something else. Looks stunning:

39.

40.

The actor fell off the rope a couple of times right above the audience, making the audience scream in surprise:

41.

Our team from Russia:

42.

It is often said that cruises are the lot of European pensioners. However, the situation is changing, and companies are increasingly targeting middle-aged and young people. Discos, good restaurants, fitness, shopping and beach holidays - it's really not boring and eventful.
