Highlights |
- Giant
Atrium. Every ship has a multi-deck atrium
these days, but the Sovereign's, at four decks,
was once the biggest afloat
- Glass
Elevators. Almost every ship has scenic
glass elevators these days, but the Sovereign's
were an industry first.
- Multi-level
Dining Rooms. The Sovereign revived the
elegance and spaciousness of multi-level
restaurants not seen since the Golden Age of
ocean liners.
- Sleek
Design. The Sovereign's lines are sleek and
streamlined - not since the famous liner the
Normandie has a ship this size looked so good!

Recommended for:
|
Not Recommended for:
|
- All ages but
particularly popular with families, couples, and
singles
- Passengers
looking for a quick getaway aboard a big-ship
- Active, "Get
Out There" passengers
|
- Passengers
seeking absolute luxury. The Sovereign offers a
"mainstream" cruise experience.
- Passengers who
insist on ultra-flexible dining. The Sovereign
offers the traditional style of dining with
assigned dining times and tables. Although the
Windjammer Café offers a casual,
restaurant-style dining at night, there are no
true, "alternative" restaurants onboard.
