She is very innovative. Personally, I prefer the smaller ships, like Luminosa's brand new SOLSTICE and SUMMIT. I am going on their ships on 2013 when she arrive in Montreal! I know Luminosa's President and CEO so you can ask me questions about Luminosa Ships here: connerwilliamsfilms@hotmail.com

I am a RCCL crown and anchor member and have diamond status becuase I have been on so many of their cruises. I curise once or twice a year. I can't wait for this ship. The bigger the better. It is truly amazing that a ship this big will probably feel like you you are on solid grounds. Looking forward to cruising both of the genesis class ships.

This ship probably won't fit in most ports. I see a lot of tender boats rides. And with so much people onboard it may be alot of hassle...

Dave i dont know about everyone else but i bike it to work now. Recycle paper plastic glass and other and just spent fourteen thousand pounds on solar panels. I grow my own veg as well if any of you lot who go on about the enviroment can boast the same as me you are doing well. i just come back off navigator it was great and looking forward to genesis. If you actually look at the stats genesis uses less fuel then planes to fly that amount of people abroad and power the five or six hotels to house them think about that
