With her sleek bowed hull, tiered aft decks and traditional charm, the Regal

beautiful room of any ship sailing.”

Maritime Matters
Even with additions including Veranda Suites, a children's playroom and Internet
café, careful attention was paid to maintaining the vintage features and
ambiance of its long history.
These include rich wood paneling, brass fixtures, enclosed promenade, the
elegant main dining room
with its view of the ocean and a number of very large staterooms.
