Royal Caribbean’s Symphony of the Seas is 362 metres long and has a weight of 227,000 tons. Five times as big as the Titanic, the 16-deck ship can accommodate 6,780 passengers and is manned by 2,175 member crew.
Once on board guests can indulge themselves at one of the 20 dining options that include hand-cut steaks, a teppanyaki Japanese grill and other gourmet treats from around the world. For thrill seekers, there is the world’s tallest slide at sea, a dual 43-foot rock-climbing wall a surfing simulator and a nine-story-high zip line ride.
The ship is due to arrive in Malaga at 6 a.m. on the 27th of March where it will be met by the mayor of Malaga before being unveiled to international travel agents from around the world.
The Symphony of the Seas will depart Malaga in the evening for Barcelona where it will set sail four days later on its maiden voyage calling at ports in Palma de Mallorca, Spain, Provence, France, Florence/Pisa, Rome and Naples, Italy.
