The Royal Caribbean Freedom of the Seas is probably the world's most anticipated cruise ship since the Cunard Queen Mary 2. The Freedom of the Seas replaced the Queen Mary 2 as the largest cruise ship in the world--160,000 tons compared to the QM2's 150,000 tons. (The QM2 will keep the longest cruise ship title since she is about 20 feet longer than the Freedom of the Seas.)

Royal Caribbean launched the Freedom of the Seas in May 2006. After her launch, Freedom of the Seas is sailing seven-night Western Caribbean itineraries from Miami calling in Cozumel, Mexico; George Town, Grand Cayman; Montego Bay, Jamaica; and Royal Caribbean's private destination, Labadee, Hispaniola.  Call one of our Leisure Travel Specialists today at 1.800.634.4302 for information on the latest Freedom of the Seas itinerary.
