Royal Caribbean International’s newest cruise ship, Allure of the Seas, received a welcome from more than 8,000 guests and crew members aboard sister ship Oasis of the Seas on Nov. 13 in Fort Lauderdale. The world’s two largest cruise ships were together for the first time at sea just two days after Allure of the Seas completed a 13-day trans-Atlantic journey from Turku, Finland. In a friendly case of sibling rivalry, Allure of the Seas’ captain, Hernan Zini, confirms that his ship is five centimeters longer than Oasis of the Seas. For more information, visit
