Our staterooms are an alluring escape from the non-stop action our cruise ships are known for. On March 11, 2016, the vessel was officially delivered to RCI by Meyer Werft in Bremerhaven Germany. The delivery ceremony was attended by Richard Fain (RCCL's CEO and Chairman) and Bernard Meyer (Meyer Werft's owner).
North Star
Followed the Suez Canal relocation cruise from the UK to China (Southampton to Tianjin). This 53-day ("world cruise") itinerary was officially named "Global Odyssey". North Star is at a fee and also can be privately booked (for special events). At "iFly by RipCord", each passenger is fitted with goggles, helmet, and jumpsuit before jumping into the chamber (1-min sessions). These vessels also have Bionic Bar where "bartending robots" mix up cocktails ordered via a tablet.

Passengers are not required to wear formal attire for dinner, but those who enjoy dressing up will probably not feel overdressed on formal nights. With so much to see, do and discover, Ovation delights and excites in equal measure and is ideal for longer itineraries, which give passengers time to enjoy the many onboard attractions to the full. The Ovation of the Seas deck plan does a great job separating the louder public areas from the sleeping quarters. Cabins to avoid on Ovation of the Seas are few, but include those on decks 4 and 6, as they are directly adjacent, above and/or below public areas that remain open until the wee hours, including the casino and the Two70º lounge.
Current itinerary of Ovation Of The Seas
The vessel left the shipyard and was tugged down Ems River on a 26 mi / 42 km long conveyance itinerary from Meyer Werft Papenburg to Eemshaven Holland (North Seas / Baltic Sea) arriving on March 12 at ~6 pm. The 2016-built Ovation of the Seas cruise ship is the 3rd Quantum-class Royal Caribbean liner, with sisterships Quantum OTS (2014) and Anthem OTS (2015). Similarly designed are the "Quantum Ultra-Class" Spectrum OTS (2019) and Odyssey OTS (2020). On February 11, 2011, under “Project Sunshine”, the shipowner Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd (RCCL) announced the order of a new vessel. It represented a new passenger ship class of all three vessels, the first of which (Quantum) was delivered in 2014. On February 29, 2012, RCCL ordered the second “Sunshine” ship - Anthem (launched in 2015).
In 2016, Ovation OTS joined in China the RCI ships Quantum, Legend, Mariner, and Voyager. This made Royal Caribbean the company with the ever-largest fleet operating on the Chinese market. With its age-appropriate children's clubs and huge SeaPlex sports and entertainment complex, Ovation of the Seas is a magnet for families, so expect to see plenty of kids during school holidays.

Confirming the Internet rumours, Royal Caribbean home-ported the new Ovation ship in China (Tianjin-Beijing). On April 13, 2016, Royal Caribbean announced that Fan Bingbing, internationally-acclaimed Chinese actress, would act as the Godmother for the world’s newest and most technologically advanced cruise ship Ovation of the Seas. The announcement was made by President, Royal Caribbean International – China and North Asia Pacific, Dr Zinan Liu, at a press conference in Beijing at the Great Hall of People.

She officially named Ovation of the Seas at an inaugural ceremony on June 24, 2016, in Tianjin, China.

As season 2017 extension, 4 new Royal Caribbean Australia cruises from Sydney were added. The boat has 16 decks, of which 15 are passenger-accessible and 9 with cabins. Royal Caribbean’s Ovation of the Seas is a massive ship with a total capacity of 4,905 passengers. Since 2019, it is based between Alaska, Sydney, Singapore and Honolulu, but its decor and design reflect the ship's original deployment in China. A symbol of good luck and a national treasure of China, a 10-metre tall (32-feet tall) panda and cub were designed with Chinese passengers in mind (joining Felicia the Pink polar bear on Quantum and Gigi the giraffe on Anthem). There is also an enlarged casino, and shops in the Royal Esplanade have been stocked with more high-end designer goods and Asian cosmetic brands.
Among those were fried scallops, pan-fried fresh shrimp, fish fillets with corn, steamed chicken. Ship's menus were also redesigned (picture-oriented) for more appealing reading. In summer 2019, Ovation OTS is deployed in Alaska as the first Quantum-Class liner there. Ovation repositions from Sydney AU to Seattle WA (Alaskan homeport), then offers 7-day roundtrip itinerary to Juneau, Skagway, and Victoria (BC Canada).
Ovation is Royal Caribbean's third Quantum-class liner, with younger "WOW" sisterships Quantum (2014) and Anthem (2015). There was a possibility RCCL to order a fourth Quantum-class vessel as this option was included in the shipbuilding contract. All Quantum-class liners don't have Viking Crown (top-deck observation lounge) and an ice skating rink. Entertainment options are brand new, with many "firsts at sea" present in the line's brochures. During Ovation's 2016 Asia season (homeported in Tianjin and Hong Kong), RCI (for the first-time-ever) partnered with local culinary experts to provide onboard over 20 signature Chinese dishes.
Get a bold, new perspective on Alaska’s wilderness onboard one of the world’s most groundbreaking ships, Ovation of the Seas® as you sail between unforgettable shores from Skagway to Juneau. Along the way, you’ll get to soak up the North’s natural splendor as you cruise along Alaska’s Inside Passage and get an up-close look at Dawe’s Glacier and Endicott’s Arm. Follows the complete list of Ovation of the Seas lounges, clubs and other entertainment venues for kids, teens, and adults. The 4200-passenger ship Ovation OTS is a Quantum-Class vessel which in size is significantly smaller in comparison to RCI's Oasis-Class.
