Radiance of the Seas
Radiance of the Seas is a cruise ship that is owned and operated by Royal Caribbean International. She is registered in Nassau, Bahamas, and is a gas-turbine vessel, the first built for Royal Caribbean. This system produces higher efficient speeds than other cruise ships, and emissions to the air are much lower than cruise ships powered by diesel engines. Radiance of the Seas is the first cruise ship to feature pool tables that are stabilized by a computer-controlled gyroscope. They adjust with the motion of the ship to keep the table-top level with the horizon.
The Radiance is the best ship in the fleet, in my opinion. We are excited that the Radiance will be doing 4-5 night runs to Mexico in 2009/2010. Only downside is that it is departing from San Diego. Our final trip aboard the Monarch starts Friday.
