GRANDEUR OF THE SEAS against its type

Built in 1996, it is 10 years older than the median passenger ship on this register, which was built in 2006 (127 vessels with a known build year). At 73,817 gross tonnage it is larger than 60% of the other 117 passenger ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 40 passenger ships here under the Bahamas flag, 30.3% of the 132 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 19 other vessels here, 8 of them passenger ships. Royal Caribbean International is linked to 25 vessels on this register. The returns for 2023–2024 all give NASSAU as port of registry.

Its 365 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 96% below the median of 9,183 t among the 48 passenger ships on this register that reported for 2024. Per nautical mile it emitted 831.6 kg CO₂, 1.8 times the type median of 473.8 kg. It logged 29 hours at sea against a median of 1,874 hours for its type that year. 9.5% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for passenger ships was 12.2%. The one comparable vessel listed below with a 2024 return reported a higher or equal CO₂ per nautical mile.

Reported CO₂ by year

2023: 808 t20238082024: 365 t2024365

Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 54.9% lower than in 2023, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2023 to 2024, emissions fell 54.9% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 14.4%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
