maggieworkman Posted February 5, 2013 #77 Share Posted February 5, 2013 Being a chemist, I want to go on the Quantum just for the name! Yay!! :) I think I see a 2014 cruise in my future. Maggie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare eroller Posted February 5, 2013 #78 Share Posted February 5, 2013 The silhouette is quite interesting as well ... Very interesting. The silhouette somewhat matches a rendering many of us have seen dated March 30, 2012. On that rendering there is a large enclosed space behind the funnel just like on this silhouette. There are also some differences, but that can be expected since that rendering was produced almost a year ago. Many of us were wondering if the rendering was legit, and now after seeing this silhouette I think it was. Ernie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smoosh21 Posted February 5, 2013 #80 Share Posted February 5, 2013 Now it's official:http://www.royalcaribbeanpresscenter.com/press-release/942/royal-caribbean-international-marks-first-major-milestone-of-project-sunshine-construction-/ So really not a lot of info. I wish they had announced at least one innovative thing about the ships. Maybe they will be rolling out information the way Princess has been rolling it out about the Royal Princess.

Clarea Posted February 5, 2013 #81 Share Posted February 5, 2013 Looking at the side view of the ship, I wonder where Viking Crown is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave85 Posted February 5, 2013 #82 Share Posted February 5, 2013 I do not like either name They just wanted to be considerate to us on CC by giving us a first letter that isn't already in use... there will be no confusion when someone says "QOS" like there is when someone says EOS or LOS. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Realtor at Sea Posted February 5, 2013 #83 Share Posted February 5, 2013 Hope one of the new ships comes to Bayonne! Have loved the Explorer, but the northeast needs a NEW choice!!! And one with a solarium for the first and last chilly days!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare island lady Posted February 5, 2013 #84 Share Posted February 5, 2013 Looking at the side view of the ship, I wonder where Viking Crown is? That was exactly what I noticed right away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smoosh21 Posted February 5, 2013 #85 Share Posted February 5, 2013 The silhouette is quite interesting as well ... I can picture a lot of glassed in areas on the top deck with that profile. I just hope that they bring back a nice promenade deck with clear views like the Voyager Class ships Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macruisefan Posted February 5, 2013 #86 Share Posted February 5, 2013 The silhouette is quite interesting as well ... That ships going to look really odd with all those giant signatures adorning the hull and superstructure.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanTheCruisingMan Posted February 5, 2013 #87 Share Posted February 5, 2013 Interesting analysis: This is the photo released today. This is a photo found by someone on CC. Notice the images do mirror each other. There looks to be a solarium at the front as well as in the middle of the shop. The two solarium concept can be seen here. Notice forward pool and a mid pool is covered by glass. Edit: Also found this. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparkx Posted February 5, 2013 #88 Share Posted February 5, 2013 So really not a lot of info. I wish they had announced at least one innovative thing about the ships.Maybe they will be rolling out information the way Princess has been rolling it out about the Royal Princess. I suspect they'll do it in a similar way to how they did with Oasis originally ... through http://www.oasisoftheseas.com (which princess has pretty much copied) - but using social media to a much much greater extent at the same time, with their new Twitter and Tumblr accounts,etc. I quite like the name - at least it's different, I'm a bit fed up of seeing the same old names being used by every line - so I think it's good for companies like Norwegian and Royal to be thinking outside the box.

Rare island lady Posted February 5, 2013 #89 Share Posted February 5, 2013 Port Canaveral would be very nice. Its a long drive from Atlanta, but it is still drivable. And you also get to avoid the traffic in south Florida! :eek: I just wonder why they don't take advantage of the empty terminal on a Saturday. The two ships, Freedom is here on Sunday, and Monarch (soon to be replaced by Enchantment) is here on Mondays and Fridays. They always sail full, so it would be nice to have one here on Saturdays. I have my fingers crossed, and would take anything they send us.;) Though it is too much to hope for that we are getting one of the new ones. Always nice to dream though! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare island lady Posted February 5, 2013 #96 Share Posted February 5, 2013 Anthem is going to be a problem. Maybe a good idea they did not keep the name "Sunshine". We already had one "SOS"....always got a kick out of that one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poncho1973 Posted February 5, 2013 #98 Share Posted February 5, 2013 That ships going to look really odd with all those giant signatures adorning the hull and superstructure.... Not only that, I think people are going to want windows, balconies, and the grey color scheme is a bit bland for my taste. These new ships stink! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liandry Posted February 5, 2013 #99 Share Posted February 5, 2013 WOW! At least. Congratulations to everyone who waiting cruise on this ship and to all RCI fans.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KMagz Posted February 5, 2013 #100 Share Posted February 5, 2013 No worries about Carnival also naming a ship "Quantum." Carnival passengers would need a dictionary..... ah never mind. :):) IT'S A JOKE PEOPLE! A JOKE! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
