Don't see Quantum or Anthem sailing out of Cape Liberty in June 2022. Oasis and Adventure are there. Anthem is in Bayonne from January of 2022 through May 2 when she does her TA to London. Quantum is down under and then going to Alaska for the summer of 2022. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sailset Posted February 18, 2021 #53 Share Posted February 18, 2021 Well...our cruise is scheduled for May 9, 2021 and RC took our final payment. When we booked this cruise last year was hoping by now Cruising would be back to "normal"...and all the kinks would be worked out from COVID...didn't want to be the trial run. But the latest notification on RC website is cruises will resume May 1, 2021.....to be honest as much as I was looking forward to it...not so much now. But by everything I've read on here doesn't look like it might happen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Royal will say cruises will resume on a certain date until they announce a new date for cruises to resume exactly as they have been doing every month since last year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably because I'm not thrilled about going on Oasis but our Grandchildren will be very HAPP!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auntiemomo Posted February 19, 2021 #57 Share Posted February 19, 2021 I seriously doubt any cruise to/from Bayonne will come/go in 2021. You just have to look at what is currently going on in the tri-state area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Katherine Back in March of 2020, I thought the same for our cruises in October of 2020, and the ones in the Spring of 2021. Now I'm worried about Europe and the Fall 2021 TA's. I'm crossing my fingers for the Spring of 2022, maybe, but AUS/NZ/Hawaii will be open by then. Who knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PelicanBill Posted February 19, 2021 #62 Share Posted February 19, 2021 As long as the CDC Framework holds, Bayonne and Manhattan (and Galveston and New Orleans and Baltimore...) will be lower priority ports for the Cruise Lines to get restarted. They already tipped their hand on this, and it makes sense. They are focused on ports with larger #s of ships coming and going first. This is because of the extensive arrangements required for transportation, quarantine and medical services in each port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because the thought of a ship that can carry 5400 passengers is not something my husband and I would ever choose. Our 50th Anniversary Family cruise on the 4100 Passenger Anthem was even too much!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What does "amplified" refer to relative to a cruise ship? I have to agree with Loracpin2....while I think it'd be interesting to at least try a ship of that size, I'm not encouraged enough to actually book a cruise on one (though we might at some point especially if it goes out of Bayonne since we don't have to fly there). After being on a ship with only approx. 930 guests back in '19, I'm leaning more in that direction for future trips. We've never been on something even close to the size of the Anthem. Biggest ship we ever did was the Adventure. Edited February 19, 2021 by OnTheJourney Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In November of 2019, the Oasis came out of her "Amplification". She underwent a 165 million dollar renovation from stem to stern. She was about 10 years old at the time. Here's a YouTube video about it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9hqCWDBH50I Edited February 19, 2021 by SNJCruisers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnTheJourney Posted February 19, 2021 #66 Share Posted February 19, 2021 Oh gosh....so does every cruise line come up with their own term for 'renovated'? The Celebrity Summit was "revolutionized".... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Celebrity Summit was "revolutionized".... In fact, the Summit was "Solsticized", which is a reference to the first S Class ship in their fleet, the Solstice. The S Class consists of 5 ships that came out between 2008 and 2012 and then were renovated between 2016 and 2020. The Millennium Class, or M Class, of which the Summit is a member consists of 4 ships that came out back in 2000-2002 and were renovated between 2017 and 2019. The reason that Celebrity called the M Class upgrades "Solsticizing" is because they implemented some of the features of the newer S Class ships into the older M Class ships.

Biggest ship we ever did was the Adventure. Amplified is a marketing term. What it means on Royal Caribbean is taking away public space with more cabins and adding more extra fee dining venues. Plus some new carpeting in public areas and USB ports in the cabins. Edited February 19, 2021 by Charles4515 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I compare NJ to Canada -- the same mentality -- nothing regarding cruising will open up in 2021. Florida is a different case. They will probably be the first to open up.
