Bobal Posted October 14, 2020 #56 Share Posted October 14, 2020 Chris Wong lives in the only area in England on the highest alert (for the next 4 weeks) so he won't be going anywhere soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aren't people in level 3 areas allowed to travel for work though? If so he could still leave if RCL call for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare bobmacliberty Posted October 14, 2020 #58 Share Posted October 14, 2020 Not sure how they choose who comes back when (seniority? performance rating?) but I think it will be a small % of the ship based workers returning to work in the short term. Good to at least see Riley headed to Quantum...even if that's just Asia at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Quantum sailings from Singapore in December seem the most promising in the last 6+ months of any in the fleet, so him getting called back makes sense.

Rare ReneeFLL Posted October 27, 2020 #62 Share Posted October 27, 2020 I hope the cruises out of Singapore are a success. Royal could really use the money right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mo&fran Posted October 27, 2020 #65 Share Posted October 27, 2020 It will be interesting how this all plays out. At least we have a source of information (I hope). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good to at least see Riley headed to Quantum...even if that's just Asia at this point. Months ago, (a month or so into the cruising halt) they said the first to go back were those who had been at home the longest. Most recently they made it clear it would be those who have extensive knowledge/experience of that ship/class of ship, and whose required documents are still in date, who come from a country where they easily travel to the ship from and who can follow the new health protocols. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His selection was no accident. I'm willing to bet that had nothing to do with it. He knows the ship, knows the shows and knows the crew. The QN Class ships all tend to have their go-to crews. I was called back to OV because i know the ship. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're at anchor in Manila Bay right now, for the next 3 days. We're functioning as the APAC region "Mother Ship" and we're picking up returning crew for other ships in the region. We sign on crew here in Manila, quarantine them for 14 days, and then deliver them to their ships in Singapore OPL. We're all very excited about the Quantum's return...but we're not quaranting crew for them, as they're doing that on their own while docked in Singapore. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the same ones, Radiance, Spectrum, Voyager and Ovation (going back and forth to Manila about monthly) - none have left the area in quite a while other than Spectrum up to China, I assume when they thought they might sail from there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RCI Taiwan office just made a hint on their Facebook page (it is written in Chinese only so I am not going to post here) that, an announcement will soon be made regarding some new Taiwan domestic sailings in February 2021 on a Quantum Class vessel. So it could either be Spectrum or Ovation. Let's wait for further updates from RCI. Edited November 9, 2020 by Cruise Wonderland Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spectrum would make the most sense unless RCI has some deal with mainland China ports/authorities for resumptions of sailings. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
