THE WORLD
Bellevue's own Arlene Wright, the philanthropist and former publisher, sold her three bedroom suite on the ship for about $5 million dollars. She expressed that touring the world for five years on the ship offered a deep learning experience and lasting friendships. She was able to see places like Papua, New Guinea and the Arctic while meeting people who had similar lifestyles of traveling.
The World made it's debut in 2002 with a non stop itinerary set by the owners, circumnavigating the globe every two to three years. Seattle has been lucky to see this ship in our port three times since it's launch 15 years ago. If you are interested in owning a part of the world's largest residential cruise ship, studio sized homes cost around $660,000 and can reach up to $14 million for suites.
