World’s Largest Cruise Ship Let the Suburbs Travel With You
Royal Caribbean’s new boat is big. Really big. The “Project Genesis” cruise liner, currently being constructed, will be 43% larger than the Queen Mary II, currently the world’s largest ship. 360 metres long and weighing 220,000 tons, it’ll be able to carry more people from New Jersey down to the Caribbean than any ship before it.
5,400 people, to be exact. The ship is so large that it has a “Central Park” the size of a football field in the middle, its own gigantic amphitheatre, and seven different “neighborhoods” that people will stay on. This thing is larger than an aircraft carrier, people. It’s f’ing huge.
It’s due to launch next year, and in 2010 a second ship of the same size will be unleashed as well. I will be staying far away from both of them. [Official Site via Boing Boing Gadgets]

but this ship is big.
is this ship gigger than the tittantic?
how f’ing stupid is that? why not just stay home, go to the amphitheatre, go to the football field, and then wander around your neighborhood?
More massive exploitation on a grand scale.
Are zip lines and “parks” somehow attractive to these mindless amerikan tourists?
Shit does float.
Tourist barges floundering from port to port, discorging their bovine passengers in search of a Burger King in Aruba.
this ship is so cool do u believe the tittanic sunk they found bones in the ship but even if they did?e tittanic is sure still cool to me and my class mates so we remember that it was long as 3foot ball feelds
