She is back! It has been a while that we have seen anything from her on RCI ships.

 

 

I know, I bookmarked her website and on a whim I checked it out and they were there. Just amazed royal didn't put anything out!!

Mid September, but apparently tomorrow they are turning the ship 180 degrees to test the thrusters

I'd reckon first week in October.

 

She's due for EMS conveyance in about 5-6 weeks time. So she'll be in the yard a few weeks yet, installing North Star, testing and final outfitting.

Some great pics here

Does anyone have better pictures of the Aft cabins? We have only seen side angle pictures. Need to see all of the back of the ship. Please share if you have any. Stayed up for the float out hoping to get a glimpse of the aft of the ship. No such luck.

Quantum looks great all lit up for first night outside. The end of a long eventful day. Magenta Bear needs a nap and I want to hibernate.

Nice photos. Not touching them! :rolleyes:

The aft section above Two70 is probably the roughest on the ship. The windowd look almost uneven across the aft.

Lloyd....you manage to get some of the coolest photos to share...thanks.

 

Hopefully we see something similar with Anthem. :)

I like him too, but I admit he had to grow on my a little bit first.

 

BTW he is not the first bear to make his way to the deck of a cruise ship. Attached is a pic I took of CELEBRITY CONSTELLATION in Turkey.

I was next door on the QUEEN ELIZABETH at the time. Anyway the bear on CONSTELLATION is carrying a fish, and of course he is not bright pink! LOL

A quick background/installation found on a popular video site.

OMG I think that's my cabin! Second floor to the left, #10320. Can't Wait! Thanks for all the great photos LLoyd! :D:D

[EatSleepCruise]

That was one of the pics on the link I posted earlier to Ingrid's web page ! She has some really good pics

 

I am just seeing Ingrid's site now. Awesome pictures.

 

I just wished RCI would get it over with and announce the remaining venues onboard!

[scotandtamcruzn4fun]

I'd also like to thank everyone that posted pictures and information. It was amazing to watch her coming together block by block.

Anyone else notice some of the oddities now that she's out and being photographed.

• In photos of her bow near the water you can see that the hull area around the bow thrusters on the starboard side is a different color than everywhere else. Since it's the area below the waterline it will likely not be repainted so it appears to be something they did not finish. The photos of the port side do not seem to show the same thing or else it's just harder to see becaue of the shadow.
  
• The pods on the SeaPlex are now painted to match the hull as well as the SeaPlex windows rather than white like in the concept art and the rest of the SeaPlex.
  
• The railings have a new design. Instead of the bars (most ships) or solid glass (Oasis class) they have single panes of glass with gaps in between as well as thin blue panes that light up. Not sure if this is to allow wind and water through but it certainly is a change.
  
• There are two vents or openings on the roof of Two70 below the Loft Suites.
  
• The glass on the foreword top decks do not seem as high as in the concept art.
  

Anyone else notice oddities or changes?

Ingrid keeps adding more pictures as the day goes along.

 

I totally agree release what's left

[DEIx15x8]

One more thing I forgot in my previous post.

• They removed the panel from behind the Quantum Of The Seas name. All the other ships seems to have the panel and the concept art does as well. Would make the writing more noticable but likely blocked the windows too much.
