transam84 Posted October 28, 2014 #4378 Share Posted October 28, 2014 Goodbye, my dear! First Ship of New Class for Royal Caribbean Papenburg, 28 October 2014 – Today in Bremerhaven MEYER WERFT delivered the 167,800-gt cruise ship Quantum of the Seas to the US cruise operator Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd. (Miami). The first ship of the Quantum class sets new standards in terms of eco-friendliness. It features highly energy-efficient systems, optimised hydrodynamics, heat recovery, an effective underwater paint coating, a state-of-the-art exhaust gas treatment plant (hybrid scrubber) as well as energy-saving LED lighting systems. Sophisticated alarm, safety and communication systems combined with the latest technology in propulsion and navigation are typical for Royal Caribbean cruise ships. The same high standard applies to entertainment and interiors. The theatre is equipped with stage technology which has yet to find its peer ashore. Relax with a book at ”Two 70” and come back at night for a spectacular aerial show. The North Star on deck 17 allows the guests to travel in a glass gondola at a height of 90 m above sea level where they can enjoy a 360-degree panoramic view. On deck 17 aft the RipCord simulates parachuting at sea both for beginners or seasoned parachuters. Surf aficionados may want to look for the perfect wave high above water level on the FlowRider on deck 16. As to interiors, the Quantum leaves nothing to be desired. 4,180 guests can be accommodated in 2,090 cabins, and are taken care of by a crew of approx. 1,550. On board of the Quantum-class ships the traditional main restaurant has been replaced by dynamic dining, where the guests rotate in five different restaurants which are included in the cruise rate, and which offer a wide culinary variety. All told, the guests can choose from 18 restaurants on board, among them Jamie’s Italian, the first restaurant at sea of the British chef Jamie Oliver. Plenty of shops, bars, lounges and spacious spa and wellness areas as well as spectacular open-deck areas and facilities offer endless pastime opportunities. “Seaplex” features the largest indoor activity area at sea that offers entertainment like bumper cars, roller skating, a competition-size basketball court as well as a circus school. The “Two70”° stretches from deck 4 to 6, a spacious area offering a 270-degree panoramic view of the sea. The “Two270°” combines entertainment and technology which allows the guests to travel smoothly from day to night. Art lovers will appreciate impressive works of art, among them “From Afar”, a very special polar bear installed on deck 15 which consists of 1,430 metal triangles. The Quantum of the Seas is another milestone by Royal Caribbean that will create a “wow” affect among its guests. The ship will depart from Bremerhaven to Southampton on 28 October 2014, from where she will set off to her Atlantic crossing on 2 November. The maiden voyage is scheduled for 23 November from New York (Cape Liberty) to the Bahamas. http://www.meyerwerft.de/en/meyerwerft_de/medien/presseticker/pressemitteilung_detail_19456.jsp THANK YOU.

salchi-chimi Posted October 28, 2014 #4379 Share Posted October 28, 2014 WOW... This voyage through the "quantum keel blocks are in the house" thread has been an amazing journey seeing the ship being built right from the beginning when she was just a keel. I have to thank lloyd and everyone else who posted construction pics on this tread because they were amazing. I guess we are reaching the end of this great thread and we are off to see pictures of quantum in operation starting on the pre inaugurals and on the transatlantic maiden! Live for the WOW. Live for the future. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derf5585 Posted October 28, 2014 #4380 Share Posted October 28, 2014 Ownership of Royal Caribbean International's new Quantum of the Seas was conveyed at a signing ceremony in Bremerhaven, Germany. The Meyer Werft shipyard built the 4,180-passenger ship, the first in a new class of Royal vessels. From Bremerhaven, Quantum will go to Southampton, England, for a preview cruise, then accept its first passengers on Nov. 2 for a transatlantic cruise to its home port of Cape Liberty in Bayonne, N.J. The ship is expected to arrive in New York Harbor on Nov. 10. Broadway star Kristin Chenoweth is scheduled to officially name the ship on Nov. 14, and several introductory cruises will follow from http://www.musu.net/royal-caribbean-takes-possession-of-quantum-of-the-seas/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nhsaltshaker Posted October 28, 2014 #4381 Share Posted October 28, 2014 What a ride! And I haven't even been on her yet. This has been a great thread. Thanks to all! I suppose that when I get back from the cruise I will pose any photos of areas of the ship (not already posted!) in a new thread. They won't be construction/build photos, but the finished product after all. :rolleyes: Any ideas for a new thread name? Quantum Quickies? Quantum Quick Pics?

I already have created a Snapfish album to share my photos from the trip, and I'll be uploading my videos to Youtube. My pictures will be 3648 x 2736 and with highest-quality JPG compression. Here is the album which I will be uploading my Quantum pictures to, if all goes according to plan. Check back periodically as I upload more and more pictures to it (I expect there will ultimately be thousands of pictures there…) (Note that you do need to set up a Snapfish account to keep track of the albums that have been shared with you, but that is free… and I highly recommend Snapfish): http://www1.snapfish.com/snapfish/share/p=3087161413511884652/l=14124870016/g=142645880/cobrandOid=1000/otsc=SYE/otsi=SAER and here is the link to my Youtube page for my videos I’ll be uploading to: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8aAGacuLIPVzG_U-HkXNaQ Enjoy! ;-)) P.S. Meanwhile, you'll enjoy (already on my Youtube) my videos of a demonstration three of the iFly instructors here in the Dallas area did for me when we dropped in there a few weeks ago to find out what to expect. ;-) You'll notice that this looks nothing at all like the iFly video that RCCL released in the Quantum preview video. ;-)))))))) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
