The History of Quantum – Prepare to be WOWED
In 81 days time Quantum Of The Seas will finally depart from Southampton and set sail with no doubt rapturous applause, even more so if your on board, on her maiden voyage. The most innovative state of the art cruise ship of our time will finally make her big debut with the eyes of the world watching her every move. As we prepare for the Quantum to finally leave the dockyard that has been her home for so long to Southampton in preparation for her first voyage I wanted to share with you her history and look back at where it all began. THE HISTORY OF QUANTUM OF THE SEAS – A NEW GENERATION OF CRUISING When we step on board a ship like Quantum I guess only then can we fully appreciate the time that has not only gone into the design but then also the production of making a ship like this. The design and ideas for this ship started many many years ago behind the scenes before any of us had any idea until finally in April 2013 and after the deal was done, the design was signed and sealed, documents were delivered to an over eager Meyer Werft dockyard in Papenburg Germany ,Royal Caribbean announced Quantum to the industry and of course the world . This video really does sets the scene on the making of Quantum nick named ‘The Sunshine Ship’ Click on the link and have a look for yourself. It really does make you realise the work that goes into making a ship like Quantum. The making of Quantum of the Seas This morning and only 16 months later after going into production Quantum of the seas floated out of Meyer Werft Dockyard to a gathering crowd and press who were all eager to see what all the fuss was really about and boy she didn’t disappoint. With a surprising 30 foot pink bear on top deck (part of the ships 2980 piece art collection) the 18-deck, 4,180-passenger Quantum finally made her debut, she will still undergo two months of finishing before being delivered to Southampton in just under 3 months time but boy already she is looking the part. Here are some great pictures of her float out. 
As you can see from the video Quantum really has so many innovative and new features it really is hard to keep up but I will try to give you even more of an insight to the WOW Factors you will experience on Quantum ENTERTAINMENT – They call it the entertainment of tomorrow – a collection of amazing inventions that have never been seen on land or sea. On Quantum robots dance in unison and sea views transform to space views in the blink of an eye. Sound is not just heard but felt from head to toe. First you have The Royal Theatre where you will be able to see the incredible stage production of Mama Mia and Sonic Odyssey, an epic infusion of music performance art and innovation. Then you have TWO70 as seen in the video where an expansive ocean view is transformed before your eyes by seamless projection from night & day with dancing robots and light shows you wont believe your eyes.I,d.It’s a place that c

DYNAMIC DINING – A first of its kind but what does it mean to you, we have heard the name so many times but what is it? All is revealed so please play the video and let the world of Dynamic Dining tantelise your taste buds!
I would like to think that your already mesmerized by this ship and as excited as I am about sailing on her, Royal Caribbean need to be congratulated at making a fairytale for all of us, both children and adult alike, come true, but on the ocean. Royal you really have excelled yourself here but have you quenched our thirst for more, I doubt it because already with new ships on order for 2016 we cant wait to see what you pull out of the bag next. My question is can you really top Quantum Class ships? If you would like to sail on Quantum’s maiden voyage from Southampton to New York in November then please call me as I have some great prices and there is still availability. Remember Quantum Of The Seas is part of Royal Caribbeans Quantum Class of ship and so is of course Anthem of the Seas so if you have already booked on Anthem , prepare to be WOWED as in 250 days time Anthem will also be leaving Southampton on her Maiden Voyage Holly xx ake yo

We are booked for “Anthem ” in May 2015. Having always cruised with RCI on I.O.T. S. Always dined in the MDR. This new dynamic dining, where you are required to pre-book without knowing the full menu, only samplers shown at present and which is the same every day through out the cruise and in most dining options a surcharge is levied ( some quite expensive ) I can only see that the Windjammer buffet bursting at the seams each evening. I am still not convinced this dynamic dining will work. Most of the proper dining venues, ( not snack meals ) I believe can house no more than 200+ guests at one time. With the average time taken to eat a three course meal of approx. one and a half hours, with some places more popular than others and with 4000+ passengers I can only envisage long queues and eventual chaos. That’s why we have booked some nights in the Grande restaurant for traditional dining and resigning ourselves to spending the rest of our evenings eating in the Windjammer. None of the other styles of menus remotely interest us. Have you seen the Traditional Pub menu from an American cook! it’s a joke. Why have Jamie Oliver producing Italian food? It goes on. We were not aware of all this dynamic dining until after we booked. One of the many Crown & Anchor members to have the chance to book first back in February, before their televised announcement regarding these new dining options.Now wish maybe we hadn’t, like some members of this forum echo. Let’s hope we’re proved wrong, as we have always enjoyed our times with RCI on our past cruises.
