Radiance of the Seas is one of the most beautiful cruise ships is operated by Royal Caribbean International. The vessel is with length of 294 meters and a beam of 32 meters. This ship is as luxury as 5-star hotel and will give you a nice feeling of board. You will feel perfectly on board and I’m sure that from the first sight you will love it. The displacement of the Radiance of the Seas is 90,090 gross tons, and when we are talking in numbers, I should announce that this vessel has 12 decks for its guests.
The last two decks are situated for perfect sea view, and are called penthouse. Only the most important persons on board have the opportunity to take a room there. The ship is as good equipped for the VIP guests as for the normal passengers. The total numbers of all passengers that may be on board is 2,100 and the number of crew that will serve the guests is about 860 members. The ship is registered in Nassau and sailing under the flag of Bahamas.
Interesting about engineer construction of the cruise vessel Radiance of the Seas is that it is the first gas-turbine ship built for the company of Royal Caribbean ships. The system gives to the vessel higher speed for less fuel consumption. With this system the vessel gets a speed of 25 knots, while crossing the ocean, and the maximum speed is with 2-3 knots more. This is very interesting to design such high technology engine and it is much more ecological, because the emissions of CO2 are less of diesel engines.

The ship is not only good ecological engineer outfit, but also good cruise ships with all luxury equipment for the customers on board. It doesn’t matter are you sailing in 1st or business class or you are VIP guest, you will feel like a king on board. On the whole area of 60 thousand square meters there are public rooms with casinos, restaurants, bars, lounges, cafes and shops. You are in some kind of sailing city on board of Radiance of the Seas. The beautiful ship was built in 2001, and for the year of building it is one of the best man made constructions. The Radiance of the Seas has some interesting innovations, just like gyroscope linked pools, which is stabilizing the top level with the horizon. But this is only the beginning and I cannot explain all extras that this ship has, but they are thousands. All the luxury is coming from it, in spite of its ages.
The Radiance of the Seas was built in Meyer Werft ship-yard in the town Papenburg in Germany. The ship was put on water on the date of 10th March, 2001. This was the day, when the 1st of all 4 sister ships were built for the ship-owner Royal Caribbean International.
