Majesty of the Seas is a Sovereign-class cruise ship owned by Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd and operated by Royal Caribbean International. She was built at the Chantiers de l'Atlantique shipyards in Saint-Nazaire, France, and placed in service on 26 April 1992. Her Godmother is Queen Sonja of Norway.

Plans to transfer Majesty of the Seas to Pullmantur in 2016 had been announced on 21 November 2014, however in July 2015, Royal Caribbean reversed those plans, instead stating that Majesty of the Seas would stay with Royal Caribbean International.^[1]

Majesty of the Seas To make good use of the time, we called home to let folks know we had survived the masses at Disney and were onboard our ship. By 3pm, the announcement was made that the muster drill would begin in 30 minutes. Like clock work, the staff began ushering people off the outdoor decks into the muster stations.
