Hot on the heals of the last video, Revolutionizing Life Boat Design, Royal Carribean and Oasis of the Seas release this latest installment title Simulator Training: As real as it gets.
Can virtual reality really prepare a crew to pilot the largest cruise ship in the world? Listen in as Captain William Wright explains what makes the STAR Center training so critical to the crew’s preparation before the delivery of Oasis of the Seas.

I don’t know about you but the suspense is kiling me!
