I was thinking Singapore/Sydney surely we must be due for some hand downs by then. But that region is being downscaled not upgraded! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No bookings in Honolulu yet. 32 minutes ago, Chiliburn said: Someone here said Quantum was going to Asia,I think it was @Jumping Cruiser ? Not sure? My dementia might be kicking in there. According to Anthem’s Captain Srecko, she will be in Australia after Alaska in 2025. Also, only Ovation has a TP up for sale in April 25, which makes this look like she will indeed replace Quantum for the summer season. Historically, the ships positioned in Alaska go to Australia for Winter, usually Ovation and Quantum. If Anthem is replacing Quantum in Alaska, I would like to think that she would also replace Quantum in Australia. (Port bookings may just be placeholders) However, Royal would still need an additional QC for the Asian market when Anthem leaves, which is where Quantum will come in, especially since she is well orientated to that region. My ‘guess’ is that she will head to Asia from Australia in April 25. This is all based though on the idea that Anthem is going to Alaska. Things may have changed since he told me a couple of months back. 2 hours ago, springaussie said: I thought Anthem was replacing Ovation! Chilli Ovation is due for 10 year dry Easter 2026. I think Ovation will have her dry dock (in Singapore?) after the Australia season 25/26 has ended, presumably going to Alaska or Asia afterwards. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing that may affect it is the depth of the hull, which I don’t think has been confirmed yet (?), but again I would imagine this to be very similar to OC.

Jumping Cruiser Posted October 1, 2023 #440 Share Posted October 1, 2023 St Maarten, Caribbean - Port Schedule (Correct as of 01/10/23) Lots of additional bookings made for WINTER 25/26 & SPRING 26.

They just added 15k more gross tons of inside space to Icon, even though the ship dimensions aren't much different than Oasis ships.

As long as there’s ship LNG available. I think it will prove to be a bit of a handicap in the future , the next generation container ship will run on just about anything.
