Titanic: World’s Biggest Cruise Ship Ready to Sail January 2024, After 111 years

The World’s biggest cruise ship is ready to sail on the Caribbean waters in January 2024, CNN has exclusively reported.

This is happening 111 years after the British passenger liner Titanic, the world’s largest ocean liner in service at the time, sank on its inaugural voyage, in the early morning hours of 15 April 1912 in the North Atlantic Ocean, four days into its maiden voyage from Southampton to New York City.

According to CNN exclusive reports the world’s biggest cruise ship has completed construction at a shipyard in Finland and has made its first foray into open water for sea trials ahead of likely delivery in October this year and would sail on Caribbean waters in January 2024.

CNN reports that the Royal Caribbean International’s Icon of the Seas is a mammoth 365 meters long (nearly 1,200 feet) and will weigh a projected 250,800 tonnes. 

The vessel has the capacity of comfortably accommodating 5,610 passengers and 2,350 crew. 

Recall that the British Titanic Ocean liner 
had an estimated 2,224 people on board when it sank.
