How Icon of the Seas Was Made — The Incredible Engineering Behind the Giant!
How Icon of the Seas was built — discover the incredible engineering behind the world’s largest cruise ship and its massive construction process. Icon of the Seas construction, cruise ship engineering, Meyer Turku shipyard, and how this giant Royal Caribbean cruise ship was made. In this video, we take you inside the construction of Icon of the Seas, from the first steel cut to the final sea trials. Built at the Meyer Turku shipyard in Finland, this massive cruise ship was assembled from hundreds of giant blocks, thousands of rooms, miles of cables, and complex engineering systems. Discover how engineers shaped steel, installed LNG fuel tanks, assembled the enormous hull, and floated the ship by flooding the dry dock. We also explore the incredible AquaDome installation, one of the most challenging stages of the build. At around 248,663 gross tons, Icon of the Seas is more than five times the size of the Titanic by gross tonnage. #iconoftheseas #shipbuilding #royalcaribbean
