If one of your New Year’s resolutions is to get fit or stay fit, there’s no need to worry about maintaining your fitness routine while on a cruise vacation.

At least a dozen new ships will take to the seas in 2014.   One of the most highly anticipated ships is Quantum of the Seas from Royal Caribbean International. When the ship launches in November, its 4,180 passengers will be able to ride bumper cars in the ship’s “Seaplex” entertainment area; take a thrilling turn in a skydiving simulator; and get an expansive, sky-high view in the North Star, a glass capsule that extends up and over the ship. Another amazing feature will be the “virtual balconies” in windowless interior cabins: large LCD screens will display the image from an on-deck camera.
