How small is the Fascination??

[luvmygirlz]

I am scheduled to sail on the Fascination in Oct. I have sailed on RCI Sovereign of the Seas and Enchantment of the Seas. I was comparing the gross tonnage and just realized that the Fascination is quite a bit smaller. But, how small? Is she still a decent size ship?

 

Thanks,

Michell

I thought they were around the same size. 70,000 ton range

RCI Sovereign of the Seas: 73,192 Gross Tons

Fascination: 70,367 G.T.

 

In the grand scheme of cruise ships, they are virtually the same size. It would be extremely difficult to notice a 3000 GT difference from a pedestrain point of view. The extra GT for Sovereign probably comes from her slightly longer length, 880 feet versus 855 for Fascination.

Thanks everyone! I guess it really is not that big of a difference from the Sovereign. For some reason I thought it was about the size of the Enchantment.

 

Either way, I can't wait to sail in Oct!
