FREEDOM DEPARTS ANTIGUA |

Freedom of the Seas is in Antigua. She is berthed at Heritage Quay in the capital St. John.

For a ship such as Freedom of the Seas, this maneuver requires skill because Freedom is a long ship and utilizes most of the turning basin. However, as she has done many times, Freedom accomplishes this maneuver without incident and sails off toward the setting sun.
