Freedom of the Seas is much larger.

Freedom of the Seas 158,000 tons - 1125 feet

no...freedom of the seas is the biggest cruise ship currently

Lex
No. The Freedom of the Seas is the biggest cruise ship in the world (as is the Liberty of the Seas and the upcoming Independence of the Seas, all of which are the same size and are all from Royal Caribbean).


steviep1968
No, I've been on the Freedom of the Seas. It is freakin' massive. We are going on her sister ship in November.

Can't wait.

The Freedom class ships (Freedom, Liberty & Independence of the Seas) are the largest cruise ship right now.

Here is some information on the Freedom of the Seas ...

Maiden Voyage: June 4, 2006
Passenger Capacity: 3,634 double occupancy
Godmother: Katherine Louise Calder
Gross Tonnage: 160,000
Length: 1,112'
Max Beam: 184'
Draft: 28'
Cruising Speed: 21.6 knots

And here is some information on the Star Princess ...

Placed in Service: 2002
Status: in service
Tonnage: 109,000 gross tons
Length: 951 feet
Beam: 118 feet
Speed: 22 knots service speed. 24 knots max
Decks: 18
Complement: 2,600 passengers, 1,200 crew
Registry: Bermuda

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_Princess

So, comparing gross tons (which is a space rating, not a weight rating) the Freedom of the Seas is 160,000 gross tons and the Star Princess is 109,000 tons. So the Freedom of the Seas is about 47% larger than the Star Princess.
