MS Navigator of the Seas is fourth out of Royal Caribbean International's five Voyager-class cruise ships. She was once one of the largest in the fleet and still ranks among the largest passenger ships in the world. Constructed at Aker Finnyards in Turku, Finland, the ship measures 138,279 gross tons and can carry 3,114 passengers, plus crew. Her length is 1,020 feet and with a beam of 157.5 feet. As of April 2007, she began departing exclusively from Southampton, UK, on cruises throughout Europe and the Mediterranean. Currently, the Navigator spends winters sailing four and five night cruises from Florida, and spends the summers sailing from Civitavecchia, Italy to the Eastern Mediterranean.
We picked her up in Rome, then we did a 7 night cruise. We went from Rome(Civitavecchia port) to Cicily , to Turkey, to Athens, to Crete back to Rome, took the train to Venice spent 3 days there, then flew home.
We bought a balcony suite, was worth it. Once you go suite hard to go back.. about 3 times what a inside cabin would cost.
I spent about 5k and the flight was free from AMEX points with Delta.
