The ship was last spotted in Piraeus, Greece.
Majesty of the Seas was the last Sovereign Class cruise ship left in Royal Caribbean's fleet, and joined the fleet in 1992.
Majesty has sailed a variety of routes in the Caribbean, having sailed from many homeports to different destinations. Most often, she sailed from somewhere in Florida and offered short cruises to the Bahamas and Caribbean.
She was only one of two Royal Caribbean ships to visit Cuba in the limited time Americans could visit the island.
Royal Caribbean International President and CEO Michael Bayley was vocal in his admiration and sorrow following the decision to sell Majesty and Empress of the Seas, "Saying goodbye to these two beloved ships is a major moment in Royal Caribbean’s history – one that is difficult but necessary."
