LuCruise Posted July 10, 2021 #1 Share Posted July 10, 2021 I've been watching for reviews about Anthem as I think it started up in the UK a couple days ago and so far haven't seen anything. Wondering about the experience. I know it's a shorter cruise but are they playing We Will Rock You and other shows? How are covid protocols?

HighlandBoy Posted July 10, 2021 #2 Share Posted July 10, 2021 (edited) We will be on her next week so are also hoping that the shows will be going ahead . 🤞 As far as I heard the first 2 night tester cruise went well and the second one is now under way so hopefully someone can give you an answer, if not I can let you know after we get back.

LuCruise Posted July 10, 2021 Author #3 Share Posted July 10, 2021 Thanks for the reply. Exciting that you are going soon! Would love to hear your experience. Have a great cruise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare little britain Posted July 10, 2021 #4 Share Posted July 10, 2021 (edited) Yes there is WWRY and Spectres etc as usual. Everyone has test 72 hrs prior to departure, mask wearing on board except when seated eating and drinking, for 11yrs and up. Not outside. The first few cruises don’t have port stops. Only real change is the charge for an extended iFly or North Star which was discussed in depth yesterday here.

Trixie21 Posted July 10, 2021 #5 Share Posted July 10, 2021 I would also like to hear general impressions of the overall cruise experience on Anthem. We are booked for the 8 nighter in August . From what I gather the shakedown cruise went very well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I did see that there is a charge for extra experience for those. I'm sure things will change as the months go on, and different in the US, but good to hear current experience.

Cool1054 Posted July 10, 2021 #7 Share Posted July 10, 2021 I have been using the app to see what is on the ship, times prices etc. I have noticed that like other Royal cruises Dinner is not available at Windjammer anymore. Solarium Bistro appears to be out of use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it was open on the shakedown cruise , but that may have been a one off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njkruzer Posted July 10, 2021 #9 Share Posted July 10, 2021 The Royal app on my phone for our October cruise shows WJ open for dinner. If you are booked on an earlier cruise take a look on the app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
