The Imperial Majesty Cruise Line Vacations Fleet
Regal Empress is the only ship in the Imperial Majesty Cruise Line fleet.
Size
Regal Empress is 612 feet long and weighs 21,000 tons. Regal Empress has a capacity for 1,190 passengers.
Departure Ports
Regal Empress always departs from the same Port Everglades port in Fort Lauderdale, Florida on its way to Nassau in the Bahamas. The consistent departure and arrival times, and well-practiced itinerary are a well-rehearsed machine performed very efficiently since the same exact procedures occur every other day.
Décor
Though Regal Empress has been around since 1953, she has aged very gracefully. Much of the original craftsmanship is still on full display. A great deal of the original brass fixtures, wood, and mahogany on board has held up nicely. Intricate glass etchings can also still be appreciated in the Mermaid Lounge. The décor is elegant and quite magnificent. The décor separates Regal Empress from many of the more modern ships, which have added a great deal of aesthetic components but lack the fine detailed elegance that the Regal Empress was born with. The exquisite ambiance and traditional charm of this ship continue to impress visitors.
Cruise Itineraries
Regal Empress offers cruises between Nassau, Bahamas and Fort Lauderdale, Florida. All trips are two-night cruises. Regal Empress departs from Fort Lauderdale at 5:00 p.m. At 9:00 a.m. the ship arrives in the Bahamas. At 5:30 p.m. Regal Empress departs the Bahamas and returns early the next morning in Fort Lauderdale, arriving at 9:00 am.

Hi John,
The only free cruise I know of are the type that are used to promote vacation shares. I once went to the Bahamas on one of these day cruises, but it wasn't worth it. Once there, I had to sit through a presentation and even when I went to the beach in the water waist deep, I was approached by sales people. I wouldn't do it again.
