Visited Geiranger, Honninsvag overnight, Flam, Alesund, Olden . Absolutely magical. If you didn’t catch it: Would love to get another shot at some of those ports in 2025. Seems like Geiranger and Flam are most affected since they are in UNESCO designated fjords. And they should be— unbelievably beautiful. mac_tlc Agree 100%! Magical is the perfect word!

I've had this booked for 5 months so at one time it said 750 days! I have one booked for April of 2025 only cause I can't go further out. Or I would have the whole year done. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare FionaMG Posted July 13, 2023 #2003 Share Posted July 13, 2023 Just out of Captain's Corner on Anthem. I specifically asked if there was going to be a revenue repo to Singapore and it looks like there is, although his answer was a bit convoluted so I'm not totally sure. The Singapore cruises over the winter are going to be 3/4 nights. All of the itineraries are currently under final review and he expects them to be released "very soon", although he wasn't able to give an exact date. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anticipating what kind of cruise it would be to get Anthem to Singapore. Currently is scheduled for a 12 day roundtrip out of Southampton ending on October 14, 2024. Could be a great, long one through the Suez. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had this booked for 5 months so at one time it said 750 days! I was booked on this itinerary on Carnival Splendor, when the Swine Flu started. We pulled up to Cabo and was turned away, but we could see the Royal ship there and passengers were out and about. We ended up only going to San Francisco. Had a great cruise, although was disappointed I did not get to these ports. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kerping my calendar 📅 clear!! Do you mean Singapore sailings for 2024-2025 will go on sale in October? They were listed on the release schedule document as the week of July 23rd, but that line has since disappeared. Does the switch from the Spectrum OTS necessitate a review of itineraries for 3 months, even though the replacement ship is likely the same class? I don't really expect anyone here to have these answers, just wondering "out loud" as it were. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If demand for Spectrum sailings exceeds supply, supplement that supply with Anthem sailings. Otherwise, Anthem maintains separate itineraries out of Singapore while Spectrum serves Hong Kong and/or Shanghai. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, the biggest issue is that their property bubble has burst, leaving a huge inventory of unsold properties together with insolvent property developers and banks. The problem has been growing for years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
