One of the largest cruise ships in the world has sailed into the Halifax port.
The Royal Caribbean Oasis of the Seas is about the length of four football fields and is stacked with 16 passenger decks.
There are more than 5000 passengers on board and the vessel carries over 2,100 additional crew members.

The cruise ship sounds like an amusement park with four outdoor pools, waterslides, and even an ice skating rink. The vessel also features a comedy club and many restaurants.
This marks the return of the cruise ship season after a two-year pandemic pause due to COVID-19.
The Oasis of the Seas is set to sail out of the Halifax Harbour at 6 p.m. Tuesday. Its next stop is the Port of Saint John.
