As anticipated, on 21st November Royal Caribbean International announced that the second Quantum Class ship, the 167,800gt Anthem of the Seas will be based at Southampton for the 2015 season before relocating to Fort Lauderdale for the winter season.

The 4,180-guest ship will bring sky diving, bumper cars and much more to the UK cruise market. Technological highlights on-board include North Star, an engineering marvel featuring a glass pod that extends 300 feet above the ocean and over the sides of the ship to deliver 360-degree views for guests. The 348 metre long, 41 metre wide and 16 deck ship is almost the equivalent in length of 32 London buses, 3½ football pitches, or nearly five of the world’s largest passenger aeroplane, the A380.
