Odyssey of the Seas: 42 departures from New York, the best choice without flying

Of the 30 Royal Caribbean ships in service, only four sail from a port a Montrealer can reach by car. Odyssey of the Seas offers the most of them: 42 departures from New York, ahead of Independence of the Seas (38), Oasis of the Seas (35) and Vision of the Seas at Baltimore (33).

That is the first sort to make with a client who refuses to fly, and it is a sort that eliminates 26 ships out of 30. New York is six to seven hours by road from Montreal, or by train, or by coach. No connection, no lost luggage, no day of air travel to budget for.

The rest of the calendar

Our 80 departures on Odyssey split between New York (42) and Civitavecchia (35), the port of Rome. Two complementary seasons: the European summer in the Mediterranean, the rest of the year on the American east coast.

For the Roman portion, allow about eight hours of direct flying from Montreal, then a transfer of roughly an hour and a quarter between the airport and the Civitavecchia pier. That transfer is never included by default and is arranged separately.

The measurements

Delivered in 2021 by the Meyer Werft yard at Papenburg, Germany, Odyssey measures 347.08 metres and has 16 decks, 14 of them accessible to guests. Maximum capacity is 5,510 guests, with 1,663 crew.

Her double-occupancy capacity and her tonnage are contradicted within our own source: two different values for each. We publish neither. That is a principle we apply across the fleet, and it is worth more than a reassuring figure that would be wrong.

Quantum Ultra, second generation

Odyssey is the second ship of the Quantum Ultra variant, after Spectrum of the Seas in 2019. With 5,510 guests maximum against 4,905 for Spectrum, she goes markedly higher in load, on a hull of almost identical length.

That shows in the public spaces at peak hours. Over 347 metres and 14 accessible decks, our advice stays the same: choose the stateroom around the lifts you will use most, not around the deck number.

What the road trip really changes

Six to seven hours by road to New York compares with a full day of air travel: two hours early at the airport, about two hours in the air, waiting for luggage, then the transfer to the pier. The time saved is thin, the calm gained is not.

Lost luggage cannot be lost. A delayed flight cannot cause a missed boarding. And a family of four moves one car rather than four tickets. That is the same logic behind the strong Quebec appetite for the 42 New York departures of Odyssey and her Quantum-class sisters.

Who she suits

Travellers who do not want to fly, families in the St. Lawrence valley, and those combining a Mediterranean cruise with a stay in Rome. A client after the Caribbean from Florida will find more dates elsewhere.

Our Royal Caribbean advisors confirm the exact fare, inclusions and applicable conditions before any booking, in line with Quebec consumer protection rules.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, for her 42 departures from New York, six to seven hours by road. She is the Royal Caribbean ship offering the most departures from a drivable port.
Four out of thirty: Odyssey of the Seas (42 departures from New York), Independence of the Seas (38, New York), Oasis of the Seas (35, New York) and Vision of the Seas (33, Baltimore).
From New York for 42 of her 80 departures, and from Civitavecchia, the port of Rome, for 35 more. Two complementary seasons.
Maximum capacity is 5,510 guests, with 1,663 crew. Her double-occupancy capacity is contradicted between sources, so we do not publish it.
Because our source gives two different values for this ship. A figure contradicted within its own source is not published, across the whole fleet.
She measures 347.08 metres and has 16 decks, 14 of them accessible to guests. That is the length of the whole Quantum class, to within a few centimetres.
In 2021, at the Meyer Werft yard in Papenburg, Germany. She is the second ship of the Quantum Ultra variant, after Spectrum of the Seas in 2019.
About eight hours of direct flying to Rome, then a transfer of roughly an hour and a quarter between the airport and the pier. The transfer is never included by default.
Maximum load. Odyssey goes up to 5,510 guests against 4,905 for Spectrum, on a hull of almost identical length. That shows in the public spaces at peak hours.
Yes, particularly a family in the St. Lawrence valley who wants to avoid flying. Six to seven hours by road to New York, with no connection and no lost luggage.
Sixteen decks in total, 14 of them accessible to guests, like the whole Quantum class.
Some New York departures head south, but a client after the Caribbean from Florida will find far more dates elsewhere in the fleet.
Around the lifts you will use most, not around the deck number. Over 347 metres and 14 accessible decks, the gap is measured in tens of minutes of walking per week.
No, her hull is only five years old. In her class it is Ovation of the Seas that went into dry dock recently, at the Seatrium Tuas yard in Singapore in March 2026.
