Everything quantum!!!!!!

There is NO WAY the North Star will be operating during sail away.

Considering how little oversight there is in the cruise industry I think the North Star is an accident waiting to happen. Especially if its operating in rough seas.

It also will not sail next to the statue due to it leaving out of Cape Liberty.

Perhaps. I don't think the North Star would operate in rough seas, or more likely high winds, which could be a bigger issue. (Although they usually go hand-in-hand.) On Enchantment, the bungee trampoline would often not operate as scheduled due to high winds.

It also will not sail next to the statue due to it leaving out of Cape Liberty.

You can see the Statue of Liberty from Cape Liberty, but the port is about a mile south of the statue. I agree, it would never be close enough for that perspective.

I have a photo of the Statue of Liberty taken during sail away with the same perspective as the one posted above. Now all I have to do is figure out how to post it :o

There we go.

Can't wait to take some photos of the NY sky line from the North Star :D

Nice pics. Thanks!

Thanks, my pleasure.

Great pictures! Can't wait to see that skyline from Quantum! :D

Awesome pictures!!!! thanks for sharing the link too. The glacier brought back memories of my 1st ever cruise which was Alaska. I can't wait to see NYC as we sail out!! 499 days for me!

Boy I guess RCCl is having no problems selling cabins. Our December 1, 2014 cruise has gone up by 20% since we booked. I would expect RCCL must be pretty happy with the response it has gotten!!

I hope when the May 2015 bookings are open, the prices start out lower before working it's way up so I can get a good deal like you did. Some how I think Bermuda will be pricey.:( But I will still go.:D

Same with my Jan 2015 cruise. 20% too. Glad I booked the day it opened up.

You are probably right. Bermuda is traditionally a pricy cruise as the port charges are steep.

If you have some flexibility, I would recommend after Labor Day when fares tend to be lower and you will still have good weather.

My cabin type (D-1) has only gone up $100/pp for the same cruise. I booked the day after reservations opened for C&A members. Oh well. Still cheaper than the D-1's on my upcoming Allure cruise, so I feel like I'm getting a bargain on Quantum. :p

has there been any mention of a FlowRider (or two)? sorry if this has been previously covered - very long thread!

thanks

There are only 3 full suites remaining on my sailing, 3 Family Jr Suites remaining as of yesterday, an no regular Jr suites remaining. Out sailing has gone up an average of $300 per person regardless of cabin category. Kinda makes the 45 minutes on hold with C&A the day booking opened worthwhile now.

fantastic! thanks!!

Ok, as far as I am concerned, this is pretty close to the "end of summer", when are we going to get some official news?

Did anyone read Adam's blog on Facebook?

There won't be a water slide on Quantum.

There goes one rumor that we can eliminate (unless, technically a water slide simulator doesn't count as a water slide :-) )

Is anyone surprised? Rccl really could care less about slides.

Could care less? So you are saying they do care?

I just thought it was worth mentioning as several have questioned the possibility.
