Harmony of the Seas may have already been in service in the Mediterranean since May, but she’s still lacking one very important thing: a godmother.
Royal Caribbean is taking a unique approach in finding a godmother for the massive cruise ship. Instead of choosing a usual celebrity or member of a royal family, the cruise line is looking to the people that make the world a better place, specifically in southern Florida.
Harmony will debut in the United States this November when she arrives in her new home, Port Everglades. To celebrate, Royal Caribbean is partnering with southern Florida ABC affiliate Local 10 to look locally for a woman inspiring the next generation to dream big, think differently, and challenge the status quo. They’ve launched a contest to find such a woman and name her godmother of the world’s largest cruise ship.
The contest is open to volunteers, full and part-time employees of a school or educational organization in Miami-Dade Country, Broward County, or Palm Beach County. Entries are accepted until September 23, 2016. For more details, visit the link mentioned above.
The world’s largest cruise ship boasts a 10-story slide, acrobatic performances in the Aqua Theater, a massive central park area, 16 guest decks, and 2,747 staterooms. She will arrive in Fort Lauderdale in November to sail seven-night eastern and western Caribbean itineraries. Sister ships Oasis and Allure of the Seas are also in Florida, in Port Canaveral and Port Everglades, respectively.
