Majesty of the Seas entered service in 1992 as the third sister
in the very successful Sovereign class of ships. Like her
sisters, she was constructed at Chantiers de l'Atlantique in St. Nazaire,
France.
Sovereign of the Seas entered service in 1988 and is no longer in
the Royal Caribbean International fleet. Monarch of the
Seas, nearly identical to Majesty, entered service in
1991. After many years sailing a seven night Western Caribbean
route, she pursued a Southern Caribbean itinerary from San Juan, Puerto
Rico.
In February of 2007, Majesty of the Seas underwent a major
upgrade and received many exciting new features and was refreshed top to
bottom. This is how she appears at the time of this
publication. She now provides a classic, medium size ship
experience with many modern amenities that guests have come to expect.
Currently, Majesty of the Seas sails three and four night cruises
out of Miami, Florida to the ports of Key West, Nassau (Bahamas), and
Royal Caribbean's private island Coco Cay. The four night cruise
provides a weekday getaway and the three night weekend cruises provide a
fun-filled, party atmosphere experience.
At the time of publication, it is merely rumoured that Majesty of the
Seas will be moved to Royal Caribbean's European Pullmantur product
but no such plans have been officially announced. |
Majesty
of the Seas is one beautiful, striking vessel with a nicely raked
bow and rounded stern with graceful curves. Finishing her
impressive profile atop is the Royal Caribbean International trademark
Viking Crown Lounge.
There is a total of 1,829 staterooms. Seven hundred and thirty
three (733) of them have an outside view and 63 of those have
verandahs. Majesty of the Seas was constructed at the mere
verge of when verandah staterooms became increasingly popular.
Very telling of this fact is that she has 1,033 interior staterooms.
Two hundred and ninety nine (299) of Majesty's staterooms can
accommodate third and fourth guests and four (4) staterooms can
accommodate the physically challenged. Most staterooms' beds can
be converted from two twins to a queen size. Newer amenities
include upgraded bedding and flat panel televisions in every stateroom.
When Majesty of the Seas debuted in 1992 she was among the
largest and most innovative ships in the World. She is currently
considered to be a moderate sized vessel in terms of her fleet mates but
delivers all of the modern amenities that guests have come to
expect. Sailing short cruise itineraries, Majesty of the Seas
gives her guests a great introduction to cruising or experienced
cruisers a much needed getaway. |
