Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. I am not sure if this is still the case as there seem to be so many different timelines about, but it used to be four months for the main cruise director and two months for the cruise director that filled in at vacation time. Corinna
  2. And Quantum for that matter. After the 2025 Alaska season, only Anthem appears to be doing a transpacific to Australia. I wonder if Quantum is heading back to Singapore. Corinna
  3. Serve some decent free coffee. I don’t want a fancy coffee every time I am in need of some caffeine. I very happily drink filter coffee, but the stuff they serve is an assault on the tastebuds. Corinna
  4. I think that baker may have moved to Symphony for the summer and then Navigator for the winter. The desserts were actually edible. I was shocked when to Pistachio Pound Cake on Navigator actually tasted of Pistachio. Now, Ovation on the other hand, as much as I love this ship, the desserts should win a “special award” for how somebody can create something that bad. Corinna
  5. I would much prefer San Pedro. We live in the U.K., but have some very dear friends in Long Beach and Orange County. There also is the pull of Disneyland. However, if San Diego made things easier to bring a Quantum class ship to California, I would make it work somehow. If Ovation is coming to California (or Quantum for that matter), I intend to book for May 2025 on opening day. Corinna
  6. According to the Royal Caribbean website, Odyssey, Wonder and Icon do as well. Corinna
  7. Interesting. Thanks for sharing. Europe 2025 has already been confirmed and does not feature either Quantum or Ovation. The fact that Ovation is doing a Transpacific indicates that she is destined to spend at least the summer on the west coast. We also know Quantum and Anthem are heading for Alaska. Regarding the winter season, I had heard that Quantum was heading to Sydney and Voyager to Brisbane. It now looks it is Anthem that is heading to Sydney. That probably means that Quantum is heading back to Singapore. Both ships had dry docks since they were pulled out of Asia. Ovation had all the Chinese signage removed, Quantum had not. Corinna
  8. It was supposed to be the week of February 12th, but it changed to February 19th a week or so ago. Corinna
  9. Unless it gets changed again, it should be the week commencing February 19th. Corinna
  10. Quantum class ships visit a wide range of tender ports. I have tendered in Phuket on Quantum and in Santorini on Odyssey and it was a surprisingly smooth process. For a big chunk of last year’s Alaska season, Quantum had to tender in Skagway and that port is not really set up for tendering. Corinna
  11. Ever since it was announced that Anthem and Quantum will be sailing out of Seattle during the summer, I had the strong feeling that Ovation is heading for LA. It also looks like that Quantum is replacing Ovation in Sydney with Voyager taking over from Quantum in Brisbane. It would not make sense sending Ovation to Florida with three new ships there. I suppose Ovation could head back to Asia, but that just does not sit right with me. I suppose time will tell. Corinna
  12. Rob McNally is from Liverpool and I am sure he has been on Voyager before. Corinna
  13. Katie is a superstar. We first met her on Ovation in 2018 when she was cruise director’s staff. We then bumped into her again on Explorer in 2019 when she was activities manager. She is full of energy and a genuinely nice person. I hope we get to cruise with her again soon. Corinna
  14. We were on the one of the last cruises before he retired in 2017. He briefly came out of retirement in 2019 and we were supposed to have him for our Baltic cruise, but he left during the cruise before ours due to an emergency. I don’t think he has been back since. Corinna
