Royal Caribbean International, the contemporary market unit in the Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd. (RCCL) group, has revised its dynamic dining concept introduced with Quantum of the Seas to 2.0 standard with the entry into service of Anthem of the Seas, company officials said.
In the original concept, passengers were to make reservation for dinner at any of the restaurants on the ship that has no main dining room. However, some past passengers of the brand were not happy with this and consequently with Anthem of the Seas, they can now opt for a system whereby they will dine at the same time each night with the same companions and retain their waiter. However, the venue will change every night between the four restaurants that have no surcharge, said Michael Bayley, President and CEO of Royal Caribbean International.
"About 36% of our passengers have chosen this option," he said in a press conference on board Anthem of the Seas this morning. The menus of the restaurants have been changed as well. In the past, they remained the same through the cruise, but now there is variation from one day to another. It will be introduced on Quantum of the Seas next. A total of 110 more seats have been added to the four restaurants on Anthem of the Seas compared to the original configuration of them on the first unit of the class.
