Adorned with over US$12 million of art, Voyager
Of The Seas is easily the most opulent ship Becky and
I have personally seen. Every inch Voyager is exquisite—and
there are a lot of inches of her! Ships are commonly measured
by weight and Voyager tips the scales at 145,000 tons,
which makes her the largest passenger ship afloat (this status
will change, as the cruise lines are building ever-larger
ships). Voyager is 1021 feet long, 158 feet wide across
her beam, and features fifteen decks. She can accommodate
over 3100 passengers and approximately 1000 crew. Many US
cities aren’t this large.
The three signature features of Voyager are her ice
skating rink, rock climbing wall, and five-story theatre. Becky
skated but neither of us did any rock climbing. We enjoyed
the La Scala theatre many times, as the nightly entertainment
was held there. Voyager also features miniature golf,
an in-line skating park, a Johnny Rockets restaurant, two very
elegant three-story dining rooms, a large main pool and hot
tub area, an adults-only pool and hot tub area, a full-service
spa, well-equipped gym, and sixteen glass elevators. Each night
we had dinner in the Carmen dining room, which featured a replica
chandelier from the USS Titanic.
