Live - Anthem of the Seas 2-9-18 to 2-17-18

[robtulipe]

I will be sailing Anthem on the first week of April and have the same itinerary, BUT what i find strange is my arrival into Port Canaveral is 12pm. I, too, have booked the Disney Transportation Excursion and am wondering why same ship, yet different arrival times, would love to get more than 5 hours at the park despite the excursion stating 10 hours. Would greatly appreciate it if you posted the times of your disney excursion. Thanks in advance.

 

I am not sure of your itinerary but this week is 8 nights and it takes two full sea days to sail to PC thus we get in early the third day , forth day if counting the day we embark. Are you on a 7 day cruise where it arrives after only one sea day down b cause it takes the extra half day arriving at noon to make it.

 

If it is an 8 day cruise then I do not know the difference.

 

Our excursion meets at 7:30 for arrival by 9 for parks opening. The buses leave to come back at 5 or 5:30 I think.

 

 

All Anthem's cruises in April of this year including the one that leaves on March 31st are 7 night Bahamas ones except the last that leaves on April 28th which is a 5 night Bermuda one.

As a former New Yorker, and a lover of NY Pizza. It's barely edible.

A lot like Carnival’s then. Didn’t want to be harsh when I posted but theirs could be categorized as barely edible. My kids like it but they’re Floridians [emoji57]

 

It is serviceable at best. Being from NY and my area, it is not near any pizzeria quality you would be accustomed to.

That’s what I figured. Oh well, lots of other foods on the ship!

 

Seadog are you from NY, sorry just assumed NJ.

Loved "Wanted" Bon Jovi tribute band on the Quantum a few years ago...hope they are still on for my Feb 25 cruise.....

Back in December we had "Led Zepagain"....they were good, too....:cool:

 

I noticed that the Chop's menu did not offer my favorite... porterhouse steak....so I think I will stay in the MDR...:)

Thanks for the info robtulipe. That explains why arrival is noon.

We are looking forward to seeing them on day this week. Led Zepagain would be ok as well as the Beatles for us.

Nice View...

 

 

Two bite Blueberry Muffins. 5 out of 5 Forks! Outstanding

 

 

Another awesome view - (5 out of 5 Forks.. the Hollandaise had a slight orange flavor really nice)

 

 

Cheers Cruise Critic! Here is to an awesome day ahead..

Have a great time! Currently it is in the mid 40’s supposedly hitting 60, but today is cloudy and with the breeze feels much cooler.

 

I am in shorts but Mrs. S has long pants and sweater on and was cold out on the pool deck.

 

Have a great cruise next week.

That Concierge Club looks great....IMHO, it would be a lot better if it were overlooking the bow, instead of the stern, but, I suppose it needs to be close to the Loft Suites....:)

What a great Review. Can't wait for more.
