World"s largest cruise terminal opened in Florida by Cheap Flights Booker UK

The world"s largest cruise terminal opened at Port Everglades in Florida on 6 November.

It was officially launched one week before the arrival of Royal Caribbean International"s 5,400-passenger Oasis of the Seas, which the company describes as "the largest and most revolutionary cruise ship in the world".

Terminal 18 at Port Everglades covers an area of 240,000 square feet, or 5.5 acres.

It has been expanded specifically to handle Oasis of the Seas, which will begin sailing year-round from the port in December, and its sister ship Allure of the Seas, which will arrive at the end of next year.

Adam Goldstein, president and chief executive of Royal Caribbean, said: "We are very appreciative of the efforts of director Phil Allen and his team at Port Everglades to create a state-of-the-art facility that will provide a seamless experience for our guests.

"Oasis of the Seas and Allure of the Seas will present an unprecedented vacation to guests and Terminal 18 is an integral part of delivering that offering."

Travellers will be able to embark on eastern Caribbean cruises on Oasis of the Seas from next month, visiting destinations including the Bahamas, Haiti and Jamaica.
