DKNYC Posted November 20, 2014 #4478 Share Posted November 20, 2014 I agree with Derick. I think the gray was a primer coat as it looked like primer to me too. Maybe they forgot to prime it the first time and since water may sit there awile it needs primer. I am grasping at straws here....can you tell?

I visited the suites when Quantum was in Southampton in Oct and it looked like a primer (as much as I know what one looks like!). At least it's all back to being white now :) Sent using the Cruise Critic forums app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LolDenise Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk My guess is that the dark grey was an antiskid coating (sort of like a coarse sandpaper!) to make it less dangerous and slippery (since it is a sloping surface) for any crew members going out there for maintenance purposes.

akcruz Posted November 24, 2014 #4481 Share Posted November 24, 2014 Well, someone else got out to the area above the bridge wing... Photo from www.jaunted.com We just did the 3 night and there was a spot to swipe to get on the wings. I didn't realize it at first but someone else pointed it out. It was actually on the side wall, easily missed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So are you saying that there is an electronic key card reader for the door to the wings, and your room key card or wristband unlock the door?

No key card required. It's a large lit up button that you activate with your hand. Edited November 24, 2014 by Lloyd555 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biker19 Posted November 25, 2014 #4485 Share Posted November 25, 2014 That button may or may not be active at all times - it certainly wasn't when I tried it during the TA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lloyd555 Posted November 25, 2014 #4486 Share Posted November 25, 2014 (edited) That button may or may not be active at all times - it certainly wasn't when I tried it during the TA. Yes, I know. I tried it a few times as well. I managed to get onto the port side wing only because there were people already out there who opened the door for me. Me thinks there was a glitch. I posted some photos ... http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showpost.php?p=44716495&postcount=4467 Notice that someone had attached a rope to the door handle.

Is it possible that they deactivate it when it's particularly windy and they don't want people out there? I'm very familiar with those buttons -- they're all over Norwegian Breakaway (which as we all know was built at the same yard right before the Q Class, perhaps the same supplier).

Lloyd555 Posted November 29, 2014 #4488 Share Posted November 29, 2014 Does anyone know why this was done? Got a response back from the graphics company when I told them about the paint-over: ... thanks for the update. unfortunately there were some issues with the Two70 roof top and our graphics needed to be painted over to remedy.

Lloyd555 Posted May 3, 2015 #4489 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Renos have already begun on the ship in preparation for China. Gift shop and "Duty Free Alcohol" shop are behind the barricade. Photos by Helen Casson on Facebook Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lloyd555 Posted September 15, 2015 #4490 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Visitors to Meyer Werft get a great view of the Ovation's Two70 construction. Unlike her sister ships, the aft end of the ship is closer to the visitor center window. It is also facing the shipyard's Hall 6 exit (meaning that she will be towed out backward on float out day).
