F27TW Posted November 10, 2014 #1 Share Posted November 10, 2014 I know Quantum arrived in Bayonne just this morning .. curious how long she will be here before her first cruise leaves On the port webcam, I overheard radio transmission between the ship and port authority people ... and they said something about divers working under the ship for at least another 24 hours. Was this overnight period in NY planned? Or did something happen that's delaying her departure? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ERIE 13 Posted November 10, 2014 #3 Share Posted November 10, 2014 According to a print out I received from the Loyality and cruise sales team she has a 3 night sampler cruise on Nov 18 . I don't know if she goes out before that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bob brown Posted November 11, 2014 #5 Share Posted November 11, 2014 I believe the pre-inaugural cruises are non-rev, by invitation only. Usually they are for company employee's, travel agents, press, dignitaries, and perhaps some high-time loyalty passengers (Pinnacle at least?)..... Sweet deal, if you are fortunate enough to get an invitation...usually everything aboard is complimentary, or so I've heard...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcd2745 Posted November 11, 2014 #7 Share Posted November 11, 2014 Are there any plans to take her up the Hudson? I work right along the river in Jersey City and was hoping to get a look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beachnative Posted November 11, 2014 #8 Share Posted November 11, 2014 The Quantum is being used as a meeting place for heads of departments from all the fleet, i.e. captains, hotel directors, front desk managers, etc. for about a week until the first scheduled cruise. This period of time is a golden opportunity for all employees on the QN to fine tune everything that takes place on the ship and especially address any issues that came up on the TransAtlantic.
