DKNYC Posted November 2, 2014 #427 Share Posted November 2, 2014 I really think we should give these fine folks a little time to get organized. AMEN! I get the excitement but give 'em a wee break. We've waited this long a little longer won't kill us. Right? :D Denise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DKNYC Posted November 2, 2014 #432 Share Posted November 2, 2014 Hi everyone - first report. Let me caveat, I love Royal and am ridiculously positive, enough to be accused being a cheerleader (read my reviews), so for me to say something negative, is very rare. That checkin was terrible - utter confusion. I can only hope it's because the staff (non-Royal) at Southampton haven't been properly trained because this is a one time thing (until Anthem arrives). We're finally on board (after about 45 minutes), enjoying a beer at the Pool Bar. The ship is beautiful. Pictures to come when I get on the wifi. We weren't able to get into our cabin (Superior Grand Suite on Deck 8), so we used our Set Sail Pass to purchase beers. So sorry your check in was not too smooth. I really can't say that was a surprise. ;) IMHO. Hope the rest of your trip is truly wonderful though. I also want to thank all of you brave folks for taking on this Maiden voyage AND reporting about it in real time. Awesome! Thanks a lot!!:D Denise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suzyluvs2cruise Posted November 2, 2014 #433 Share Posted November 2, 2014 (edited) Yes, correct - no charge for the Wow bands. They were waiting for us in our rooms. Thanks for taking us along. :) I would like to know if there are many tables for 2 in the complimentary restaurants?

We have been in and out of there number out times and it has always been top notch.....until oasis transatlantic...which was worse than an epic failure IMHO.

Treacher1 Posted November 2, 2014 #436 Share Posted November 2, 2014 When we sailed Adventure of the Seas out of Southampton, we were onboard within 10 minutes - it was easy and quick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

racheltp Posted November 2, 2014 #438 Share Posted November 2, 2014 On board our boarding was 30 minutes from setting foot in the terminal to on board the beautiful quantum. The covered area midships port side deck 4 is outdoor seating for Jamies Italian. My opinion is windjammer wasnt such a zoo as usual and seating feels a little more intimate due to layoit. I can't believe how much comfy seatong there is throughout the ship. I plan on having an amazing cruise but probably won't purchase wifi. I will post more thoights post cruise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ers26 Posted November 2, 2014 #446 Share Posted November 2, 2014 How exciting!!! Can't wait to here all the details and see all the pictures. If anyone has on opportunity, can you find out how the cabins are on deck 13 regarding noise from the pool deck, etc. above on 14? We are booked in cabin 13570 on the June 20th sailing and we are a little anxious about our deck and cabin choice.
