This last minute cruise has it all. Great price at as low as
$34 per night per person, a chance to sail on the world’s fourth largest cruise
ship and an opportunity to spend a day in Haiti and help a country desperately
in need of foreign tourist dollars. Don’t let Haiti scare you off. Labadee has
a highly secure private beach in the north of the country that has been
owned by Royal Caribbean since the 1980’s. This cruise leaves on December 2,
2013 so act fast if you want to take advantage of this deal!
The Cruise
Five nights on board Royal Caribbean’s Liberty of the Seas,
embarking from Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. This Western Caribbean itinerary starts
at Port Everglades on Monday, December 2, 2013 at 4:30pm. After a day at sea,
Liberty reaches Labadee, Haiti on Wednesday for a day of fun and sun at the private
beach.
The following day, you can your reggae on with a port call
at Falmouth, Jamaica. After another day full day at sea to experience all this
great ship has to offer, you’re back in Florida on Saturday, December 7 at 7:00
in the morning. Remember, as with all Royal Caribbean’s newer ships, the boat
is just as much a destination as the ports it visits.
This cruise can be had for as little as $34 per night.
Interior staterooms can be had for as low as $169 per person per night. An
ocean view is just $20 more per person per night at $189. Regardless of which
stateroom you choose, there is an additional $107.72 per person in government
fees and taxes.
The Ship
Liberty of the Seas began service in May, 2007. She was
renovated in 2011 with the DreamWorks Experience integrated. Liberty is one of
three Freedom Class ships in the Royal Caribbean fleet with sisters Freedom of
the Seas and Independence of the Seas being nearly identical.
At a gross tonnage of 154,407, all three Freedom Class ships
tie as the fourth largest cruise ship currently on the high seas. Only Royal
Caribbean’s twin Allure of the Seas and Oasis of the Seas, along with the
Norwegian Epic are larger. Liberty of the Seas is heavier but not quite as long
as the Queen Mary 2 of the Cunard Line.
Liberty is 1,112 feet long or 339 metres in length. Using
the old standard, she is the length of three NFL football fields. There are 15
decks accessible to the capacity 4,600 passengers. The crew numbers around
1,300.
As mentioned, the ship is a destination. Liberty of the Seas
is fully integrated with the DreamWorks Experience, making it great for smaller
children. Also included is FlowRider, a surf simulator. For added enjoyment,
there are two hot tubs cantilevered over the edge of the boat, giving great
views of the ocean around.
