Majesty of the Seas

Sovereign Class review covers: Majesty of the Seas, Monarch of the Seas

Overview

Precursor of vessels to come, Sovereign of the Seas, which no longer sails in the Royal Caribbean fleet, was the largest cruise ship afloat when it was introduced in 1988. Two sister ships followed and, although they all share the same layout, subtle differences exist in size and the number of passengers they carry. Majesty and Monarch have received major refurbishments, with the addition of Miami Beach-style Latin clubs, and Johnny Rockets diners. Other improvements include an expanded spa and enlarged areas for children and teens. Balconies were also added to 62 junior suites.

The futuristic atrium, combined with the abundant use of marble and gleaming metal, virtually assured the Sovereign-class ships design longevity. The addition of rock-climbing walls and other features found on subsequent Royal Caribbean vessels, plus sparkling new interior colors, belie the age of these ships.
