ANOTHER Quantum-class ship is on the way for Royal Caribbean Cruises following “remarkable response” from industry partners and consumers alike to its earlier Quantum-class ships.
The cruise company last week said it has inked an agreement with Germany’s Meyer Werft for the fourth Quantum-class vessel to be delivered in 2019.
Richard D Fain, chairman and CEO of Royal Caribbean Cruises, said in a press statement: “We have received a remarkable response from travel consultant partners and travellers, and we are thrilled that we’ll be able to deliver another revolutionary ship with our partners at Meyer Werft.”
The order is still pending the completion of customary conditions including financing.
While Royal Caribbean did not share specific details on what amenities the fourth Quantum-class ship will have, president and CEO of Royal Caribbean International, Michael Bayley, said it would be a “trailblazer in smart-ship design and vacation innovation”.
Royal Caribbean cruises owns Royal Caribbean International, Celebrity Cruises, Pullmantur, Azamara Club Cruises, CDF Croisières de France, and TUI Cruises through a 50 per cent joint venture.
