So where is Anthem off to?

Is Antarctica cruises a possibility?

 

If their plan was to send Anthem to an established western market, surely the sleuths here would have found evidence in port schedules.  

Can’t see them deploying to China with the recent introduction by some countries for a negative test before returning.      
Some possibilities… Japan/Korea, South America and Middle East.  I favour the first.

Oh please let Dubai back on the rota!!

Msc is cheaper but not as good ports

We are doing Antarctica in February on Celebrity. Wish it was Royal, but we are just happy to go.

Back to topic!?

On the weekend I noticed that the Brilliance of the Seas around Australia cruise port visits were deleted for February March 2025.

I just noticed Brilliance is booked into Grand Cayman a few times early 2025.

Well spotted. 
Anyone found evidence of Anthem’s 2024/25 deployment?

I’ve been searching, but not come across anything as of yet. 

 

There’s still Utopia to come as well and in my opinion, I think a full China deployment would be unlikely. Although, I could very well be wrong! 

Hoping that there will be some updates to the deployment release flyer within the next couple of weeks… the suspense is killing me!

Though as I've said before usually last Cruise I Book from new releases day it opens is late as April-June. Consistent last 12yrs... Anticipations getting to me also

The Oz season 24/25 will it be only 2 ships?

If so with Quantum appearing to go for a dry dock in Singapore in November 2024 and Ovation will most likely a work a music charter or 2 in November 2024 this will cut cruise numbers for the first part of the season. 

For Australia to get 3 ships 24/25 I believe the question to ask is “Will Alaska 2025 have 3 Quantum ships?”

Anthem would be a treat, completing the trifecta of Quantum class!

Sydney needs more capacity and the only way is a bigger ship.

The repo would be super popular.

Is there a flyer available for new deployment, same as the Going Going Gone? We’re looking to do a Panama Canal cruise in 2025 but nothing is available yet. I’m hoping to book as soon as it opens up so I can select the suite or cabin that I really want.

Isn't the OTP restricting in size? Ovation is already the same size as Anthem.
