It was a big week for Royal Caribbean news and if you missed any of it, we have the full recap right here.
Any self respecting Royal Caribbean fan probably heard the big news when on Wednesday Royal Caribbean announced its new evolution of cruise dining called Dynamic Dining for its Quantum-class cruise ships.
Dynamic Dining boils down to there will be no main dining room on Quantum of the Seas or Anthem of the Seas. Instead, there will be 5 complimentary restaurants along with a slew of specialty restaurants and quick dining locations.
Needless to say, the change has gotten Royal Caribbean fans talking and there's vocal fans in support and in opposition to Dynamic Dining.
