This is Brad Kidvue on location at the Pholxind Docks. One of the world's largest cruiseliners has just docked, unloading a load of 2500 passengers, and 400 staff. I'm here with the captain, James Villet.
So, Captain Villet, where does this boat come from?
This is her maiden voyage, stopping en route to the panama canal, then to Los Angeles, from her home port in Paris, France.
So how will this boat make it through the canal, isn't it too large?
Not exactly, it's around the same size as the maximum length for a boat in the canal, the height of the ship is what makes it so large, it stands at approximately ten stories above sea level.
That's quite the impressive feat! We'll have more after this commercial
