Royal Caribbean - Third Freedom Class Ship Named

April 29th 2007

Royal Caribbean International will name its third Freedom-class ship the Independence of the Seas when it debuts in May 2008. The vessel is currently under construction at Aker Yards in Turku Finland. Along with sister ships the Freedom of the Seas and the Liberty of the Seas, which will debut in New York in May, the 160,000-ton vessel will carry 3,634 passengers and will share the title of world's largest cruise ship. Like its sister vessels, the Independence of the Seas will have amenities that include the FlowRider surf simulator, the H20 Zone aqua park, cantilevered whirlpools, an ice-skating rink, a boxing ring and the 1,215 square-foot Presidential Family Suite that accommodates up to 14 passengers.
