ABOVE: Royal Caribbean’s
Explorer of the Seas is
being greeted by its larger fleetmate
Anthem of the Seas, docked
in Southampton and preparing
to set off on its 42-day relocation
voyage to Sydney, Australia.
The twin sister to Voyager of the
Seas has now set off, venturing
eastbound through Europe and
Dubai to India and Asia before
arriving in Perth on 13 Nov.
Explorer’s first Australian cruise
will be a 16-night tour around
the south of Australia from Perth,
arriving in Sydney on 28 Nov.
Both Voyager-class vessels will
meet in Sydney Harbour on this
date either side of Fort Denison.
Just months after its sister,
Explorer of the Seas underwent
a major revitalisation which saw
the addition of a FlowRider surf
simulator, three new restaurants,
Virtual Balcony-fitted cabins and
Panoramic Staterooms.
Other facilities include a full size
basketball court, ice-skating rink,
mini-golf and Royal Promenade
which runs nearly the length of
the ship, hosting parades and
evening entertainment.
