Numbers do matter, And if you ever thought Harmony of the Seas couldn’t measure up, just do the math.
Since may 2016 it has been the world's largest cruise ship in numbers.
Just a few of them: 227.000 gross tons, 10 millions hours by 2500 workers fto built it, state-rooms for 5.500 guests plus few for 2.000 crew members, 18 decks, 23 swimming pools, 24 elevators, as well as many restaurants and bars, casino and a 1380-seat theater. And the list goes on and on, not to mention also 1 parrot on captain shoulder
plenty of everything is the strategy to make you feel busy and comfortable all the time on this floating village, divided into 7 neighbourhoods, each with their own style and attractions, peaceful outdoor space in Central Park; bustling amusement park style Boardwalk; the Royal Promenade for shopping, dining, drinking and dancing; Entertainment Place, for comedy, jazz and production shows; Youth Place, for the kids; Vitality Sea Spa and Fitness Center, for working out and getting pampered; and Pool and Sports Zone, for playing, swimming and being active.
More than ever it doesn't matter where are you going , but how you are reaching your destination.
Quoting Foster Wallace book " A Supposedly Fun Thing I’ll Never Do Again ", I wanted to praise this superb example of the high-style hospitality industry , with a touch of of irony and sarcasm,and wondering how people enjoy their precious free time
