Royal Caribbean International has introduced new technologies aboard new Quantum class ships, thereby enhancing the guest experience and passenger convenience.
Smart Check-in allows passenger to generate boarding documents online, upload their own security photo, and receive digital boarding confirmations, which cuts down boarding time to 10 minutes. Additionally, the introduction of RFID technology allows guests to track their luggage using their smartphone.
SMART Concierge is available aboard Quantum and Anthem of the Seas which offer new RFID WOWband wristbands. These require only a simple tap to quickly navigate the ship, make onboard purchases and serve as the room key. Guests can also better manage their onboard activities using the Royal iQ cruise planner.
Quantum class ships will be equipped with a new generation of low, mid-Earth-orbit satellites, which guarantees high speed broadband to passengers. This technology powers a live global video gaming suite where guests can play Xbox Live and compete with other gamers worldwide or on other Royal Caribbean ships.
New apps will also help crew track the tastes and preferences on individual guests. Whether a guest prefers gluten-free dining, early show seating, or shiatsu massage, the features of the SMART Service allow crew members to anticipate every need. There is even a bionic bar with robot bartenders.
Technology has even played a part in making the ship more environmentally friendly. For example, sophisticated computer modelling was used to reduce the vessel’s energy consumption with efficient hull configuration, engine design and energy saving devices. CLICK HERE FOR VIDEO
