Docked at Nassua

Five times larger than the Titanic, Taller than Nelson's Column, longer than four football pitches

It has every imaginable facility, from basketball courts to a wedding chapel, not to mention a spa
offering Botox treatment.

0.43 miles is the length of the onboard running track. It's found in the Spa and Fitness Centre,
alongside kickboxing classes, tooth-whitening treatments and 24-carat gold facials.

3 years is how long the boss of STX Europe shipyard in Turku, Finland was given to build this
mammoth ship. His brief was very particular: a ship large enough for 8,000 passengers and crew,
complete with a landscaped park, whopping theatres, casinos and ice rinks, even an onboard
hospital. (with no pain medication) All to be completed in 1,095 days.

6 weeks is how long it took to carve each of the 18 wooden animals on the fairground carousel to
include zebras, giraffes and even lions.
