BugsyCruiser Posted April 16, 2015 Author #601 Share Posted April 16, 2015 [quote name='readytolose']I can't believe its day 5 already! I'm curious if the pools/pool decks seem crowded to you. I've been going back and forth between booking Anthem or one of the Oasis class shops again but we like to spend a lot of time by the pool. It seems the Quantum class has much less pool space. Thanks for taking your vacation time to answer all of our questions. It's very appreciated![/QUOTE] I would say the pool decks tend to be much more crowded on Quantum than Oasis class. It's day 5 but still got 7 to go :) Sent from my Samsung Galaxy Note 4 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lady Hudson Posted April 16, 2015 #604 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Thank for this fabulous review, Chris. I spent 18 days on Quantum in January and will not hesitate to book Anthem when she comes to NJ. How do you like your solo cabin? Regards.

I've never taken longer than a 7 nighter so next month having 12 nights on Anthem will be incomprehensible! I'm already thinking-" how am I going to be able to eat all this food? I want to try EVERYTHJNG" LOL. Maybe I should work my way up to it before the cruise. Chris, can't say enough how meaningful your rapid responses and real time pics are.

CVU Posted April 17, 2015 #608 Share Posted April 17, 2015 [quote name='RoamingRetirees']I don't think it could be on the Cruise Compass because everyone couldn't be in the same dining room each night. You will probably receive a notice in your stateroom telling you which restaurant and which table. We signed up for Classic Dining on the Harmony TA next year. A whole lot easier than making 53 individual reservations on Quantum.[/QUOTE] I can just see the confusion with the rotation dining......:rolleyes::D:eek: Luckily there are not a ton of dining spots if you go to the wrong one........it needs to be simple--- to know what day it is, even that is hard sometimes and then where you should be for dinner on that day.
