A Kiwi cruise expert will be one of the lucky few launching the largest cruise ship in the world in the US later this month – the Oasis of the Seas.
Jacqueline Unsworth, Cruise Marketing Manager for United Travel and Harvey World Travel for the last 10 years, will be amongst 3600 international guests and media as the Oasis of the Seas is officially launched in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, and makes its way around the Caribbean for the largest party ever seen at sea.
There will be an official launch ceremony with parades, parties and in-depth inspection of the ship, the accommodations and facilities. Jacqueline plans to experience everything from the flying fox, rock wall, ice-skating rink, and flow rider (artificial surfing wave) through to the 20 restaurants and four pools.
Jacqueline will be available for media interviews, prior to, during and after the event (from 24 – 27 November) and will be ‘tweeting’ about her experiences regularly on her Twitter page at www.twitter.com/JacquelineAtSea
Media are welcome to follow Jacqueline and share her experiences and photos. She will also have access to a film crew on the ship.
Jacqueline has almost 20 years of cruise industry experience in total, and has been aboard other notable ships such as the Queen Mary 2, Queen Victoria, Star Clipper and the luxurious Silver Whisper at the 2007 Americas Cup Regatta in Valencia. She was also on board the Independence of the Seas in 2008 for its launch in Southampton, which was previously the largest cruise ship in the world.
