Quantum of the Seas will homeport in Shanghai
Royal Caribbean International’s newest ship, Quantum of the Seas, will reposition to Shanghai in May 2015 following her inaugural winter season sailing out of New York to the Caribbean.
In China, Quantum of the Seas will join Mariner of the Seas and Voyager of the Seas in Asia, increasing the company’s capacity in the region by 66%.
"Consumers in China have grown to expect the best the world has to offer, and Quantum of the Seas meets that standard like no other ship," said Adam Goldstein, president and COO, Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd.
"Every trend we are seeing in China tells us we can achieve real long-term competitive advantage and appealing returns on our investments in this fast-growing market by accelerating our presence there," Goldstein said.
Quantum of the Seas, which spans 18 decks and carries 4,180 passengers, will debut in November 2014.
Beginning late June 2015, the ship will sail three- to eight-night itineraries year-round from Shanghai to Japan and Korea.
