At the end of October he will move to Miami from where he will make his Caribbean cruises.
If you want to sail on a ship that is already a journey in itself, I give you some of the most interesting tics of this mega-ship.
At Symphony of the Seas can travel up to 6.680 passengerss divided into 2.755 cabins and suites. I already told you about the Ultimate Family Suite, 125 square meters, able to accommodate up to eight people in two bedrooms. Here you have more details about it.
The Symphony of the Seas is 17 stories high, although in the 24 elevators that there are you will see that it marks 18, and that is as in some hotels Floor 13 has been suppressed for reasons of superstition. The crew is made up of 2.175 people and they serve you in 6 languages: English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, Italian and German.
As if it were a city in it you will find seven neighborhoods, each of them with a different theme.
One of the most spectacular places is at the top of the decks, it is a area with 5 heated and outdoor pools, Jacuzzis with sea views, hammocks ... well, as close as possible to heaven. Although if yours are strong emotions, rather than relaxation, then you can go for it. the highest slide in the world that has been built on a ship, the ultimate abyss, and you also have two other smaller ones to try, or jump for one 25 meter zip line.
Any journey you do on this ship, and even if you don't get off at any port, is in itself a whole travel adventure.
