Children could still be in a chance of stepping aboard the world's largest cruise ship - if they get in quick.
The Southern Daily Echo has teamed up with Royal Caribbean International to celebrate the launch of Independence of the Seas - which is arriving in the UK at the end of April.
As well as being one of the first people to set foot onboard the new ship when she premieres in Southampton, the winners will get the chance to enjoy an exclusive Scouting For Girls concert onboard, courtesy of Virgin Radio.
This exclusive launch event will take place in Southampton on April 26, several days before any holidaymakers join the ship.
We are looking for budding artists aged between three and 16 to draw a picture of what they would most like to find on board.
The Daily Echo has already received some great entries, two of which are featured here, and we're extending the deadline until Monday so youngsters get a further weekend to work on their creations.
