Food Fight! Dynamic vs Freestyle Dining

It seems that Royal Caribbean have hopped onto the cruising bandwagon that Norwegian Cruise Lines initiated back in 2000 with the Freestyle Dining option and have said a fond farewell to the traditional dining that their cruisers have been used to until now. Whilst the concept of Dynamic Dining isn’t fleet-wide (yet), it is something that both the Quantum-class ships,and the Oasis of the Seas are currently launching, with hope for it to spread to Allure of the Seas (likely during her stint in dry docks in spring 2015) and possibly beyond in time. Both of these cruising giants are offering a dining experience that provides the utmost in flexibility and control. Whilst going ‘freestyle’ with food isn’t for everyone – and some will mourn the loss of the grand Opus Main Dining Room on Oasis of the Seas, it’s testament to the tides are turning; after all, it’s the 21st century and Royal Caribbean and Norwegian Cruise Line are two fleets that are notorious (in a good way – not in an Al Capone way!) for driving their fleets and cruising concepts forward. You just have to look at the new Quantum of the Seas with its hi-tech bells and whistles to see that (robot bartenders, anyone?)! Royal Caribbean’s Dynamic Dining and Norwegian Cruise Line’s Freestyle Dining are two of the big contenders in the cruising world of unconventional...
