5 World Records Set Aboard a Cruise Liner

Cruise ships are not just for exploring fascinating routes and enjoying luxurious services, cruises are also places where world records, certified by Guinness World Records, can be set.

 

Hard to believe? Here are 5 incredible achievements recently made at sea:

 

The largest number of people on a transatlantic crossing: Royal Caribbean's Symphony of the Seas set a record by carrying 7,604 people, including passengers and crew, during its Atlantic crossing in March 2023. This marks a new record for the most people on board a cruise ship during a transatlantic voyage.

 

Most alternating ball touches in 30 seconds: On the same Symphony of the Seas, freestyle football champion Liv Cooke broke the world record for the most alternating ball touches in 30 seconds. With an impressive 76 touches, Cooke added another title to her already remarkable list of achievements—this time with the sea as her backdrop.

 

Largest vow renewal ceremony at sea: Cruise ships are not just places for relaxation but also for unforgettable celebrations. A total of 1,443 couples exchanged vows in the largest vow renewal ceremony ever held, organized by Princess Cruises on 3 ships simultaneously.

 

The largest cruise ship in the world: With a displacement of 250,800 tons and a capacity of nearly 10,000 people, including passengers and crew, Royal Caribbean's Icon of the Seas, which set sail in January 2024, became the largest cruise ship in the world. This true giant of the seas has redefined what is possible on board.

spritz

 

World’s largest spritz: Costa Cruises knows how to host a party! In 2016, aboard the Costa Favolosa, the world’s largest spritz was made. Using 500 liters of Prosecco, 333 liters of Aperol, 167 liters of soda, and 15 giant ice cubes, a record-breaking aperitif of around 1,000 liters was created.

 

These records prove that a cruise is not only a chance to relax and have fun but also an opportunity to make history!
