emmy Posted March 13, 2013 #7 Share Posted March 13, 2013 While on the Feb 2/13 sailing of Oasis I asked at the Captain's corner when and if there would be a TA for Oasis. Captain Trym answered and said yes the eastbound TA would be Sept 1/14 sailing across the Atlantic ending up in Barcelona with a stop or two. He mentioned Malaga by name. He also said that Oasis would do a few short sailings to showcase her in Europe and mentioned Rome as a port of call. It will then go to Rotterdam for her drydock and said that the westbound TA would depart from Southampton but he did not say the date of the return sailing.

Tall-Cruiser Posted March 14, 2013 #8 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Inside information!Dates not confirmed, but was talked about staying in Europe longer to accommodate Quantum launch in Caribbean. So Quantum could be sailing out from Terminal 18, Port Everglades, Fl. Maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This confirms the info that I was given from a Hotel Director. He said to look for it do acouple of runs in Europe before coming back. I wasn't told any specific dates but your info pretty much jibes with what I heard. Excited !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virtopia Posted March 14, 2013 #14 Share Posted March 14, 2013 I was looking to do a European cruise for September 2014, so this works out perfectly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PCWalton1 Posted March 14, 2013 #15 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Just a couple of runs before heading back? Imagine what the cost of those cruises will be. :eek: Sent from my Kindle Fire HD using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waiting patiently to see the itineraries and to book one of the TA's. :):)I was surprised the Captain gave me so much info and this was 1 month ago.

Eng23 Posted March 14, 2013 #17 Share Posted March 14, 2013 So Quantum could be sailing out from Terminal 18, Port Everglades, Fl. Maybe? Not likely. Many people have their money on Quantum being ported in Bayonne, N.J. to compete head to head with NCL's Breakaway sailing from NYC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Oasis is heading to Europe for dry dock, RCI will have an open spot on Saturdays on Terminal 18. So Quantum could start out in Florida. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was also told by another Oasis Captain in October when I asked about Quantum inaugural he said 'December 2014' so I am thinking Oasis would be back in Port Everglades by then.

And Liberty and Independence of the Seas will also be back in Ft. Lauderdale by then and could be using Terminal 18 if Oasis has not returned by then.

Eng23 Posted March 14, 2013 #23 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Which makes perfect sense with the St Maarten schedule. I'd put money on her starting in FLL In that case you could just send me your money right now. :D Explorer of the Seas also has St. Maarten on some of it's itineraries and Explorer will be heading to dry dock in this time frame. Quantum has design features to make it more useable in colder climes and with NCL's newest in NYC it makes sense that this is where Quantum will start.
