STX Europe Floats Out Allure of the Seas

Allure of the Seas in the drydock shortly before it is flooded in preparation for the float out on November 20, 2009. Allure is the 225,000-ton sister to Oasis of the Seas.
The Azipod propulsion system is shown before the drydock was flooded.
Once the drydock was flooded, Allure was floated out to the outfitting dock where it will remain while the interior is installed.
Construction is approximately 60% complete at this point. Allure of the Seas is set for delivery to Royal Caribbean in about a year.
