See full version: Revealed: the Australian cruiser behind Voyager of the Seas; new colour
Mr Winter will be able to see Voyager’s striking new look in person as he goes on board for another nine-day cruise to Pacific Islands in January next year. He will be sailing with his mum and sister as he has yet to convince his wife that cruises are not boring. His young children however, do not need extra convincing after watching Youtube videos of what’s on board with dad.
“Thank you for taking the time to share your recommendation! I really think that being able to visualise it with your rendering convinced us. She sure does look pretty in blue!” here
He is booked for a cruise on Voyager in January.
“Also, Mr. Bayley wanted me to personally tell you to not be surprised if you see an $80,000 charge on your SeaPass account during your January cruise. This is, of course, for all the paint that will be needed to move forward on this project you’ve added to our list! (LOL – he’s a funny guy.)” [links]
So Mr Winter, a 29-year-old IT salesman, set about making it happen by photoshopping a blue hull onto a picture of the Voyager of the Seas and sending to the line’s most senior managers.
One week later, he received an email from Aurora Yera–Rodriguez, Director of Guest Services, confirming that the company was going ahead with his suggestion. here

Mr Erdogan also explained how the water slides, sports deck, teens club, Adventure Ocean, gym and spa will be located on decks 12 and 13 of the ship. Having these facilities situated around the same area will allow the family to stay close to each other while doing different activities. Then, they can easily head to the Windjammer restaurant on deck 11 for lunch or dinner. more
