numbers for meals do not make sense

edit

Running the numbers in the article:

The capacity of the ship is listed as 3114 passengers and 1185 crew - 4299 total.

Dividing into the meal figures given:

1. Each person eats 24 meals per week. (maybe) 2. Each person eats 70 desserts per week. 3. Each person eats 54 appetizers per week. 4. Each person eats 16 steaks per week.

30,000 L of ice cream

Yeah, right. I saw this figure in a different Wikipedia page and knew right away it smelled fishy.

Blanked material follows.

The kitchen staff prepares over 105,000 meals every week to feed both crew and staff. As part of this, 300,680 desserts, 234,000 appetizers, and 69,000 steaks are consumed per week.

Upgrades added in 2012 included an outdoor movie screen, digital signage, ship-wide Wifi, a new diamond lounge, and the changeover of the Cafe Promenade and Portofino restaurants to the Boardwalk Dog House and Giovanni's Table concepts first introduced on the Oasis class cruise ships.[2]

I strongly advise against returning any of this material to the article without credible sources not tracing back to glossy, corporate press releases. — MaxEnt 00:06, 22 May 2016 (UTC)Reply

Photograph & Itinerary

edit

I changed the main photograph to a daytime one that better shows the ship. I also removed the itinerary paragraph because it was outdated. SpiritedMichelle (talk) 00:46, 3 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

First or second generation Voyager class?

edit

The article states in the first paragraph that it is second-generation, then says it is first generation when describing the cabins Northben (talk) 01:50, 15 March 2019 (UTC)Reply
