Royal Caribbean Freedom of the Seas is the largest cruise ship sailing today and will be the largest cruise ship in the world until Royal Caribbean International’s Oasis of the Seas debuts in December 2009. Royal Caribbean’s Freedom Ship set sail for the first time from Turku, Finland in 2006 and offers many new innovative features. Freedom of the Seas offers the same popular features on the Voyager-class ships such as rock climbing walls, ice-skating rinks and Royal Promenades, but with a few additions. This Royal Caribbean cruise ship is the first to feature a FlowRider surf park and an H20 Zone waterpark, making this one of the best cruise ships for families. Freedom of the Seas sets sail from her home port in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, and offers Royal Caribbean cruises to Eastern and Western Caribbean.
