AN enormous cruise ship sailed into Greenock’s Ocean Terminal early this morning with thousands of passengers on board.

Royal Caribbean’s Jewel of the Seas made her first Inverclyde appearance of the 2024 sailing season on Monday morning amid a busy spell at the local cruise ship terminal.

The 13-deck vessel can hold 2,500 passengers and was first launched in 2004.

Her on-board attractions include a casino, a poolside cinema and a 12-metre rock climbing wall.

She is a regular visitor to Greenock and a popular sight for local cruise ship enthusiasts.
