From the passenger numbers in the below link, I'm wondering if the answer is Nieuw Amsterdam?

reading the article it seems to mention 2 ships Nieuw Amsterdam and the eurodam but the Nieuw Amsterdam holds 2 more passengers more so i would say that is the biggest

question is Q: ms Koningsdam is to be the largest in the fleet when it launches, but which ship currently holds that position? - as the article is about Holland America Line I assume it needs to be their largest

Although Allure of the Seas is big it's Royal Caribbean International

Nieuw Amsterdam and the eurodam are both 86000 tonnes, however as the others have noted the Nieuw Amsterdam holds 2 more passengers

Oops sorry - had a bad night last night (again!) and am not on form!

It is Gross Tonnage that is used as the measurement for ships (it's a measure of volume, not weight!) - passenger numbers are irrelevant.

Answer is still ms Nieuw Amsterdam at 86,700grt which is slightly larger than ms Eurodam at 86,273grt
