Ovation opens for a big day out in Sydney

ROYAL Caribbean International hosted agents and media to A Big Day Out on its massive cruise ship Ovation of the Seas while it was docked in Sydney on Fri, providing the group with a taste of all the best features passengers can enjoy on board the vessel.

Highlights of the tour included taking to the skies in one of its marquee attractions, The North Star, an observation capsule which hoisted the group close to 90 metres in the air, enabling a 360 degree view of the harbour.

When safely back on deck, Royal treated visitors to a bite to eat at its Jamie’s Italian restaurant featuring some of the British celebrity chef’s famous antipasti planks and plates.

The good times were capped off in style by offering up a few cocktails whipped up by the ship’s resident robotic mixologists “Mix” and “Mingle”.

Royal’s cruise director Mike Hunnerap told Travel Daily the reason Ovation of the Seas’ success with the Aussie market was largely down to its world class entertainment offering.

“We refer to ‘The Big Four’ which are The North Star, the Flowrider, the Bumper Cars and iFly,” Hunnerap said.
