Icon of the Seas Worlds largest cruise ship sets sail from Miami
The 20-deck Icon of the Seas' maiden voyage comes amid concerns about the vessel's methane emissions.

On Thursday, Argentina's World Cup winning captain Lionel Messi, who currently plays for Inter Miami, took part in the ship's naming ceremony. He was seen placing a football on a specially built stand to trigger the traditional "good luck" breaking of a champagne bottle against the vessel's bow.
