Creator's Key Takeaways

Britannia launched in 2015 and can carry 3,647 passengers making it a midsize Ship by today's standards

Aria on the other hand is pio's newest and largest ship it can carry 5,200 passengers making it significantly bigger than Britannia

the food in the main dining room on Britannia was much better than on arvia the service was also much better

I love the solo balcony cabins on Britannia located on Deck 16 they are close to everything
