Royal Caribbean has made it into the Guinness Book of World Records with its unique North Star attraction aboard the cruise line’s Quantum-class ships.

The North Star is a glass observation capsule which rises more than 300 feet in the air and rotates upwards and over the sides of the ship to provide 360-degree views.

North Star broke the record for “Highest Viewing Deck on a Cruise Ship”.

Two of the three technologically advanced Quantum-class ships sail from Asia and the Pacific region, Quantum of the Seas from Beijing (Tianjin), China and Ovation of the Seas from Shanghai (Baoshan), China; Sydney, Australia; and Singapore.

The third, Anthem of the Seas, cruises from Cape Liberty Cruise Port in New York Harbor to Bermuda, The Bahamas and the Caribbean.

Ovation of the Seas will be back in Singapore in March to April 2017 with a total of 10 new sailings, comprising 3 to 5 nights to Penang, Phuket, Bangkok (Laem Chabang) and a 12-night one-way cruise to Tianjin with calls at Ho Chi Minh (Phu My) for an overnight, Hue/Danang (Chan May), Hong Kong and Seoul (Incheon).
