As Royal Caribbean’s Allure of the Seas begins sea trials ahead of launching in December, a few people have asked about the size of modern cruise ships today, and if bigger is really better.
Cruising from Australia in the 1920s and 1930s was still in its infancy when these photographs were taken. Life on board the ships then followed a more relaxed style than today, with passengers organising their own entertainment.
Seabourn boasts all-suite accommodation, complimentary fine wines and spirits, an unmatched ratio of elegantly designed space per guest, and an incomparable level of personalised service by nearly the same number of award winning crew as guests.
Hear the hilarious stories of life aboard the world's most luxurious fleet, including how nine men "mooned" BON VOYAGE from the San Francisco Bridge as the ship set out to sea.
