Dwalkerdave Posted November 21, 2013 #3 Share Posted November 21, 2013 If that is all they are going to announce it will be the worst kept secret of the year !!!!!!!! Shall we make up some of our own ? How about UK prices to match US prices, now that would be a shock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxHadleyxx Posted November 21, 2013 #4 Share Posted November 21, 2013 If she is based in the UK would that mean she would be there year round, or at least a larger portion of the year than RCI currently keeps ships in the EU market? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wmp.dll Posted November 21, 2013 #5 Share Posted November 21, 2013 I hope the next Quantum claass after Anthem calls Florida home so I can sail on her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare shipshape sam Posted November 21, 2013 #6 Share Posted November 21, 2013 I hope the next Quantum claass after Anthem calls Florida home so I can sail on her. Most likely the only way I will sail on the new class of ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfcathorse Posted November 21, 2013 #7 Share Posted November 21, 2013 I hope the next Quantum class after Anthem calls Florida home so I can sail on her. Since you're flying in from Calgary, why don't you just fly into New Jersey instead of Florida? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rwdnj Posted November 21, 2013 #8 Share Posted November 21, 2013 Since you're flying in from Calgary, why don't you just fly into New Jersey instead of Florida? My thoughts too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shipfriend_max Posted November 21, 2013 #12 Share Posted November 21, 2013 (edited) Royal Caribbean are to announce later today that Anthem of the Seas is to be based in Southampton when launched in 2015 OFFICIAL news?? Sadly my video does not start - it still shows up "Coming Soon" - and yours??? :confused: Edited November 21, 2013 by celebrity_fan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Big Booper Posted November 21, 2013 #13 Share Posted November 21, 2013 Sorry, but who wants to sail out of NJ in November. Yuk! When we lived in NY we took the EX 3 times in Dec with no covered pool or Solarium. It was fun. The Q class has a covered Solarium complex, just like the Celebrity S class.

RSLeesburg Posted November 21, 2013 #14 Share Posted November 21, 2013 If she is based in the UK would that mean she would be there year round, or at least a larger portion of the year than RCI currently keeps ships in the EU market? I am going to guess no. I think they will winter her in....drum roll please... Port Canaveral. But then again, she is built for cold weather, so maybe a few Southampton to NY transatlantic trips to give Cunard some competition? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChipLondon Posted November 21, 2013 #15 Share Posted November 21, 2013 (edited) Watching the Live Streaming announcement now, and all I can say is "Where is The Wow", this is so dull I hope the actual announcement has something interesting in it. .

kruzerci Posted November 21, 2013 #16 Share Posted November 21, 2013 I don't even know what to say about this... This is like a bad mix of a music history class and flip of a "press release". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But then again, she is built for cold weather, so maybe a few Southampton to NY transatlantic trips to give Cunard some competition? Yeah, I am guessing no as well--but one can always hope--or hope that at least they leave her in Europe for a longer season. I'd love to be able to do an Easter cruise again (our first RCI was at Easter out of BCN, but now no ships come back until after). Well, what I would really love is to sail for Faschings (usually in February) -- but unless and until RCI keeps a ship in Europe year round, I doubt I will.

Rare steamboats Posted November 21, 2013 #23 Share Posted November 21, 2013 I hope the actual announcement has something interesting in it. I fear the acutal announcement was in the part which was not broadcasted... Obviously Adam Goldstein has already spoken at the beginning of the event telling that the Anthem will be homeported in Southampton and Fort Lauderdale... steamboats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
