Royal Caribbean International has unveiled future plans for the first Quantum Ultra-class ship to be based in the Asia-Pacific region.
Set to be launched in mid 2019, the yet-to-be-named ship will be the next progression of the ground-breaking Quantum class and will join her sister ships, Quantum of the Seas and Ovation of the Seas.
The new ship will explicitly be designed for guests in the region, highlighting even more cutting-edge and unparalleled experiences and facilities. The announcement was made as Royal Caribbean unveiled its full roster of 2018-19 China, Singapore and Australia itineraries.
As part of the deployment plans for 2018-19, Mariner of the Seas will relocate to a new home in Miami, Florida embarking on a “Global Odyssey” from Asia that boasts three long sailings from Singapore to Dubai; Dubai to Barcelona; and Barcelona to Miami.
Voyager of the Seas will have her first full season in Singapore in 2018-19, offering 3- to 7-night journeys all over Southeast Asia with stops that include ports in Thailand and Malaysia.
The new 2018-19 deployment season offers added places of interest, including an extended offering of open-jaw itineraries for adventure-seekers travelling down under with new 10-night open-jaw itineraries between Auckland, New Zealand and Melbourne or Sydney, Australia on Radiance of the Seas.
During the Australian summer, Ovation of the Seas will reposition to Sydney for her longest season in Australia, regaining the title as the largest ship based in the region.
