Description
The third Freedom class ship built in Finland; Independence of the Seas was, with her twins, the world's largest cruise ship until the arrival of the Oasis class. The Royal style is found in the variety of its gastronomic offer, the attention to service, and entertainment with many activities of all kinds. The interior furnishings are lively, sometimes elegant, and convey relaxation. A youthful ship, it offers fun to the young and old. In 2018 it underwent a deep and expensive restyling that helped to make it a ship perfectly in step with the times.
